The works here are all created using the pixel sorting method and Processing. For this first set of images, I was just playing around with types of images and how they’re affected differently by the code and playing around with different parameters of the code. Some of these have created very interestingly textured images that are a complete abstraction of the original photograph but I can feel that there is a whole new area to look into based of those textures.

This second set of images revolves around a more focussed investigation into how changes in the code (and the orientation of the source image) affects a single subject. More of these images end up as being textural expanses that are incredibly interesting pictures in themselves, but additionally the two more heavily sorted yet still figurative pictures are I think a great couple of portraits and a method that could be carried on into a series.
