Fyre generates computational artwork through histograms of chaotic functions. It's an innovative tool for digital artists looking to create unique and visually stunning designs.
Formerly known as 'de Jong Explorer', the application has been renamed to accommodate other chaotic functions. By leveraging the simple Peter de Jong map equations: x' = sin(a * y) - cos(b * x) and y' = sin(c * x) - cos(d * y), users can create images that are based on the probability that the points lie within the area represented by each pixel. By allowing Fyre to render progressively longer, the software collects more samples, producing an image that's more accurate.
The resulting probability map is treated as a High Dynamic Range image, which includes some image manipulation features such as linear interpolation, gamma correction, and Gaussian blurs. These features enable users to enhance the full internal precision and produce natural-looking images without losing any of the image's original precision.
This latest version of the software comes with new scalable icons, which were artfully created by Andreas Nilsson. It also addresses a few crashes in pathological and corner cases and adds +/- 1 subpixel of noise during oversampling to avoid aliasing in certain conditions. Furthermore, it implements the 'Polar' variant of the Box-Mueller transform, resulting in a slight performance increase.
In summary, Fyre project is an exceptional tool that every art enthusiast and software developer should be using. Its advanced features allow for effortless rendering of high-resolution, high-quality images, making it the perfect software for computational art.
