It gets more beautiful as it goes along, shot through with more and more colour. There's a strong sense of decay and deconstruction, as if the Kandinsky was a tapestry being disassembled into all its separate threads; but there's also a tremendous richness of it, a sense of festooning, as if all those threads were being thrown across the screen.

Thanks Alan.

Regarding your question... it's more technical than anything else. I wrote a PHP script to do the pixel sorting, the visual is created in Processing. When I tried to run the sorting algorithm on a full resolution image, PHP gave up because it was too much info. So I ended up reducing the Kandinsky image to 200 x whatever pixels and then in the visualization I make everything 5 times bigger. So, what represents a single pixel is actually 5x5 pixels. To make sure that the source point of any sorted pixel matches its location on the image, I had to enlarge the image x 5 too. So it ends up a bit blurry and pixelated.

    This is amazing and lovely and reminds me of the period of time
    Kandinsky was working, it also reminds me of Klee's notebooks. A
    question - why the blurred image at the beginning? Was that
    deliberate, or the result of the processing or my computer for
    that matter?
    ...turns almost Monet-ish, water lilies myopic.
    Would there be a way to create a three-dimensional parallel to
    this? Or a way to create a bvh file for creating a 3d model? Just
    curious.
    The speed is pure music, thank you for such beauty -

        Some new work I'm making and would like to share.

        Composition II sorted by saturation ascending, brightness
        descending, hue descending.
