I want to procedurally generate some simple art; any software recommendations?
I was really enjoying Katabasis by R. F. Kuang (even though the biting critique of Academia reads true and hits quite close to home) until, quite suddenly, there's an extended bit on the hell of Crohn's disease and I was not expecting that and ouch
