Creating Immersive Generative Art with Go
summary
Demonstrates a working pipeline in Go that pulls a random photo from Unsplash random image API, samples colors, and over thousands of iterative draws paints polygons and rectangles using the gg library; image filters and circular masks rely on Go's image/color interfaces, and a browser build compiled to WebAssembly (wasm) runs slowly but functionally, producing finished generative sketches with layered opacity and surprising emergent structure.
