Tigerbob Charm Packs is an interactive art work by Gossamer Rozen. The second javascript artwork in a series expanding the world of Tigerbob, Charm Packs deconstructs & reassembles Gossamer's iconic pixel art in 10 x 10 repeating pixel tiles arranged on a larger grid like a tapestry. This reorganizes the visual language from representational to abstract, a direct reference to Gossamer's knitting practice which involves repeating jacquard designs broken by patchwork & mending.
The pixel art is formatted for Javascript by translating the work into arrays on spreadsheets, a process similar to Gossamer's knitwear programming practice.
The token hash is used to determine the Charm Pack (tile set) and Theme (colorway) of the token. The tiles are placed on a grid according to Perlin noise and handwritten rules. Animation is placed on selected tiles according to another layer of Perlin noise. Thresholds in the script control the density of pixel tiles and the amount of tiles that are animated. This allows for outputs varying from clean, uniform designs to busy, dense graphics.
"Charm Pack" refers to 5" x 5" squares of cut fabric for quilting purposes, usually cut from the same length of fabric, for use in patchwork quilts. Quilters traditionally mix and match sets of charm packs to create their own custom quilt.
