[classifieds] - a generative expressionistic algorithm inspired by the classifieds section of old newspapers. Before social media people would use them to find services, jobs and even partners. The charm of this medium for me was its brevity, akin to a tweet where you had limited characters to describe your; self, service or request. Despite its basic functionality, the columns & rows, font size and occasional clipart created density throughout the page that I found interesting to look at.
The algorithm uses a grid ranging from 3x3 to 20x20 with each cell further divided within the same range. Each cell represents an individual listing and instead of text, it's randomly filled with polygons to create varying densities - the resulting outputs range from near identical to more free form.
