Welcome to TEXT2IMAGE version 2.0!
_basic description
TEXT2IMAGE is an online tool that does exactly what the name describes, but in a different way than one might expect. Rather than creating a typographic based image of the live text submitted, this tool renders an abstract image that is the translation of the given input. The results remain consistent for any particular entry, however will vary greatly through any textual change. Within the realms of data visualization + digital/glitch aesthetics, TEXT2IMAGE explores an alternative way to create images and analyze texts.
_what's new
TEXT2IMAGE has come a long way since
Version 1.0 – it has undergone some major structural improvements, surface design refinement, and most exciting of all, the addition of a new algorithm, which I shall dub alg_02. This came to be through a process of
experimentation and manipulation, which now produces b+w images, revealing a raw structural quality, that leaves my jaw in a constant state of 'dropped'. Please be sure to click the thumbnail to the left in order to view this new algorithm.
_learn more
TEXT2IMAGE is part of an ongoing thesis titled,
Precise Mishandling of the Digital Image Structure. Over the past year I have grown increasingly interested in the structure to surface relationship that is to be found in computational artifacts. Text is image is video is audio is _____, each medium can be reduced to the same common malleable matter, 1's and 0's that make up binary code. text2image exploits this very nature of our digital files, which is a mere peek through the door to some wild experimentation.
