Creating Immersive Generative Art With Go

A workflow for generative art using Go that translates Processing sketches into production code, a self‑published book about Go for graphics, and a live web demo compiled to WebAssembly. It uses the gg library, pulls random images from Unsplash as color palettes, iterates simple polygon draws thousands of times (rendering speeds up after ~1,000 iterations), and experiments with Perlin noise and stroke jitter to produce layered, sketchy visuals.
