I've just published "Windfoil: Closed-Form Coverage for Real-Time and Differentiable Vector Graphics" —
📎 Paper: arxiv.org/abs/2610.02468
🔧 Code: github.com/texel-org/windfoi…
It is substantially faster than current differentiable renderers, and runs in WebGPU (browser + server).
‘Partial Exposure’ at Paris Photo, here’s a short demo of the system in action. 256 rectangles are guided by CLIP, a vision-language model, towards the given prompt.
Under the hood, this is running locally in the browser with WebGPU (custom optimized CLIP encoder) + Windfoil.

Pattern Language engages with the textile history of Western Norway in a contemporary context. In an interactive installation, audiences playfully explore a generative system building on traditional Åkle weaving patterns. Selected outputs are presented as jacquard-woven textiles.

Introducing 'Serac'—a series I'm releasing with @avant_arte for the Digital Art Season at @V_and_A, with a portion of proceeds going to the museum.
A limited-edition screen print paired with a digital collection from the same algorithm.

Introducing a new work created for Digital Art Season at the @V_and_A by @mattdesl.
Matt visited the museum’s collection and developed his own response to what he encountered.
The resulting work, ‘Serac’, is now available as a signed silkscreen print and a digital generative collection of the same name.
