Perlin noise – more experiments

— ActionScript, Generative art

After writing this post of using perlin noise, I’ll did some more experiments making cool things. I draw lines using Perlin noise as input. Check this out:

I was also experimenting/figuring out how to convert a actionscript generated movie to video. I never knew it was possible (or that easy) with the Flash CS3 (maybe because I never tried). Just choose file > export movie > and choose .mov extension. The video isn’t smooth, because (when I save it) it is not really rendering, it’s just like an invisible screencapture, I guess. So I can’t use more heavy CPU things. Thats a pity.

But maybe I could use my ImageSaver Class to create a movie-sequence by saving frame by frame as PNG.

    I tried this and it works! thx
    (I probably don’t have to mention that a 30 fps movie won’t work 🙂 )

    Looks very nice, have you got a working SWF file instead of the video?
