Install

Works with every agent the skills CLI supports.

npx skills add https://github.com/moizibnyousaf/ai-agent-skills --skill algorithmic-art
  1. 01

    Install

    Run the command in your project. The CLI asks which agents to install for.

  2. 02

    Describe the task

    Ask your agent for something this skill covers. It loads algorithmic-art automatically when relevant.

  3. 03

    Review the result

    The agent follows the SKILL.md steps, scripts and references bundled with the skill.

SKILL.md

The instructions your agent reads when the skill is triggered.

Algorithmic Art

Create generative art with code using p5.js, featuring seeded randomness for reproducibility.

Core Concepts

Seeded Randomness

// Use seed for reproducible results
function setup() {
  randomSeed(42);
  noiseSeed(42);
}

Noise Functions

// Perlin noise for organic patterns
let x = noise(frameCount * 0.01) * width;
let y = noise(frameCount * 0.01 + 1000) * height;

Common Patterns

Flow Fields

let cols, rows, scale = 20;
let particles = [];
let flowfield;

function setup() {
  createCanvas(800, 800);
  cols = floor(width / scale);
  rows = floor(height / scale);
  flowfield = new Array(cols * rows);

  for (let i = 0; i < 1000; i++) {
    particles.push(new Particle());
  }
}

function draw() {
  let yoff = 0;
  for (let y = 0; y < rows; y++) {
    let xoff = 0;
    for (let x = 0; x < cols; x++) {
      let angle = noise(xoff, yoff) * TWO_PI * 2;
      let v = p5.Vector.fromAngle(angle);
      flowfield[x + y * cols] = v;
      xoff += 0.1;
    }
    yoff += 0.1;
  }

  particles.forEach(p => {
    p.follow(flowfield);
    p.update();
    p.show();
  });
}

Recursive Trees

function branch(len) {
  line(0, 0, 0, -len);
  translate(0, -len);

  if (len > 4) {
    push();
    rotate(PI / 6);
    branch(len * 0.67);
    pop();

    push();
    rotate(-PI / 6);
    branch(len * 0.67);
    pop();
  }
}

Particle Systems

class Particle {
  constructor() {
    this.pos = createVector(random(width), random(height));
    this.vel = createVector(0, 0);
    this.acc = createVector(0, 0);
    this.maxSpeed = 4;
  }

  follow(flowfield) {
    let x = floor(this.pos.x / scale);
    let y = floor(this.pos.y / scale);
    let force = flowfield[x + y * cols];
    this.acc.add(force);
  }

  update() {
    this.vel.add(this.acc);
    this.vel.limit(this.maxSpeed);
    this.pos.add(this.vel);
    this.acc.mult(0);
  }

  show() {
    stroke(255, 5);
    point(this.pos.x, this.pos.y);
  }
}

Color Palettes

// Define palette
const palette = ['#264653', '#2a9d8f', '#e9c46a', '#f4a261', '#e76f51'];

// Random from palette
fill(random(palette));

Best Practices

  • Use noLoop() for static pieces, save with save('art.png')
  • Experiment with blend modes: blendMode(ADD)
  • Layer transparency for depth
  • Use frameCount for animation

FAQ

What does the algorithmic-art skill do?

Creating algorithmic art using p5.js with seeded randomness and interactive parameter exploration. Use when users request creating art using code, generative art, algorithmic art, flow fields, or particle systems.

How do I install algorithmic-art?

Run npx skills add https://github.com/moizibnyousaf/ai-agent-skills --skill algorithmic-art in your project. The skills CLI detects the agents you use and copies the skill into the right folder.
