Wanted to see how well Processing would handle 3000 copies of overlapping pngs. I photoshopped out a set of 7 bird silhouettes and each flocking object grabs a random image from the set and rotates it according to its x/y angle. Voila, Hitchcock!
Next step is to use more controlled silhouettes and a larger variety. If I start to feel ambitious, I might model out the wings and body separately so I can recreate a rudimentary 3D simulation of a flying bird.
Stevanovitzsch, lennyjpg, and 42 other people added this photo to their favorites.

hey robert, since I couldn't post a comment on your blog (no idea why -- safari?) I do it here.
Wonderful writeup of the Paul Smith case! I actually find the cyan overprint you made to point out the similarities esthetically very pleasing! Why not make a t-shirt print of that one! I'd buy it! ...for $23,50 that is ;)
Love your work btw.
