Alright, let me tell you about this “eva mokue” thing I messed around with today. It was kinda interesting, in a head-scratching sort of way.
So, first things first, I stumbled upon this term “eva mokue” while I was browsing around, trying to find some new ideas. I didn’t really know what it was, but the name sounded cool, so I figured, why not give it a shot?
I started by doing the usual – Googling it. I mean, where else do you start these days? I dug through a bunch of articles, forum posts, and whatever else I could find. Honestly, a lot of it was kinda vague and confusing. But the gist of it seemed to be about…
- Some kinda image processing technique?
- Related to generating patterns, maybe?
- Potentially involving some weird math stuff?
Great. Super helpful.
Anyway, armed with that not-so-solid understanding, I decided to just dive in and try to make something. I figured the best way to learn is by doing, right?
I grabbed my usual tools – Python, because that’s what I’m comfy with, and a couple of image processing libraries like Pillow and NumPy. Figured those would come in handy. I started by just loading up an image I had lying around. Just a random picture of my cat, Mittens.
Then, I started messing with the pixels. I mean, that’s what image processing is all about, right? I tried a bunch of different things – blurring, sharpening, playing with the colors. Nothing really screamed “eva mokue” at me.
After a while, I had a breakthrough. Or at least, I think I did. I started playing with the idea of using some mathematical functions to manipulate the pixel values. I tried a few different things, and then I saw it – a weird, swirling pattern starting to emerge in Mittens’ fur!
I messed around with the parameters of the mathematical functions, tweaking them here and there, until I got something that I thought looked kinda cool. It wasn’t exactly what I had envisioned when I first heard about “eva mokue,” but it was definitely something interesting. Like a distorted, almost psychedelic version of my cat.
Honestly, the whole process was a bit of a blind stab in the dark. I’m not sure I fully understand what “eva mokue” is supposed to be, or if I even did it right. But I ended up with a trippy picture of my cat, so I guess that’s a win?
The code? Well, it’s a mess, I ain’t gonna lie. But it’s my mess. It involves reading pixel data, doing a bunch of NumPy operations (mostly involving sine and cosine, for some reason), and then writing the modified pixel data back to the image. If you really want to see it, I can try to clean it up and share it, but be warned: it’s not pretty.
Overall, this “eva mokue” experiment was a fun little detour. I learned a few things about image processing, and I got a weird picture of my cat out of it. Not bad for a day’s work, I reckon.
