a good friend [ a good friend despite his known tendency to play with fire ] intoduced me to the n_gen design machine this weekend. i may never be the same:

“Design Modules are the heart of the n_Gen Design Machine. They supply the ‘Recipes and Ingredients’ for the designs you create – graphics, images and text content as well as layout and image generative algorithms. When it’s released, the full n_Gen application will allow users to create their own Design Modules. Designers or other individuals with a particular aesthetic or approach to share will be able to create modules for distribution that get installed and interpreted by the n_Gen application, similar to the way typographic fonts and plug-ins are now developed for use in standard graphics applications like Adobe Photoshop® or Illustrator®.”

i put up a smattering of the results. amazing.

cafepress here i come.
