What is an artnip?
An artnip is a small piece of code that takes a few numbers and draws something. Rain paints streaks. Circles stack and overlap. Put a few together and you get a painting.
Random but controlled
Every painting picks random artnips and random parameters. The randomness is seeded — the same seed always produces the same painting.
A code is the painting
Every painting compresses to a short code string. Paste that code anywhere and the painting regenerates exactly, with no image file needed.
Permanent by default
Every painting you generate is saved and gets a permanent URL. The gallery grows with every click. Nothing disappears.
The gallery
Everything ever generated lives here. Each painting is rerendered from its code on every visit — no image files stored anywhere.
