TRCC128kbchallenge
128KB is a framework for creative coding within boundaries. Facing the myriad of problems with today’s social media, 128KB started with Tim Rodenbröker asking himself a question: How could a dedicated, non-distractive, calm and focused online feed for creative coding look like?
The goal was to create a gif of max 128 frames, max 128kb, 128*128 size and max 128 colors in Processing, p5.js or glsl. This is my contribution.

The piece was built on earlier sketches I had lying around. I liked the fact that it allowed for a looping structure. Even with a very small GIF file, the user could enjoy the piece for a longer period of time. The idea was to create a vertical movement where, with each iteration, the cell width doubles. I’ve added a code example below so you can play around with it yourself.
Attentive viewers might also notice that this is the piece responsible for the footer of this website.
