Nice vibe coding challenge from @luka!

I love the serious energy architects like @luka and @mrkswcz ++ bring to the generative art space.

The code to do something like this is not trivial, and the skill to make good work with it isn't, either.

Generative juvenilia:

Animated GIF, created sometime late 1990's for my personal web site (evolutionzone.com, now a squatted domain), upsampled from 240x180 pixels.

The original graphics were 3D models generated with Java and rendered in POV-Ray, reduced to harsh B/W.
Michael Hansmeyer - Subdivided Columns (2010-)
An early example of parametric baroque, Hansmeyer's subdivision extravaganza leaves me puzzled.

I admire the tech and (parts of) the geometry, but the pseudo-fantasy framing makes me expect high-tech elves to show up.

Been enjoying the portfolio of Vera van de Seyp (NL), a Dutch conputational designer based in Amsterdam and New York.

Before attending MIT Media Lab she trained as a classic graphic designer, but she's been going hard on code as an expressive medium. One to watch!
