One obvious difference I can see at a glance is that Maker.js doesn't support 3D models, while FluidCAD does. I assume Maker.js is a lower level library aimed at interfacing directly with CNC machines, while FluidCAD is focused on 3D design.

I used Slug at a previous job. It is an excellent, artfully crafted library; really the pinnacle of software engineering in my opinion. Thanks to the author for donating the algorithm to the public domain!

I used printful.com. Their matte prints are surprisingly high quality.

If you're serious, send me an email at [email protected]! I would honestly love to hire someone to do a bit of grunt work.

Thank you! They're made with Java-based Processing (https://processing.org/), although I have a new JavaScript/WebGL version in the works.

Thanks for your question! I began writing a technical explanation of the art here: https://notes.spacefiller.space/living-wall/

It's a very early draft, but hopefully provides a glimpse into the techniques I use.

(tl;dr: it's way more low-tech than ML generated art.)

I made ~$1000 in earnings in a weekend selling algorithmically generated posters of my art: https://spacefiller.space/prints

This was a test run that went surprisingly well. I paused sales so that I can focus on reworking my process (it was very manual, hoping to make it completely automated) and design more posters.
