ggboy

ggboy simulates the retro aesthetic of low resolution ordered image dithering cameras.

It is built upon the ggplot2 and magick packages for plotting and image processing.

• Images are cropped (centrally by default) to have pixel dimensions of width = 128 and height = 112
• A 16 pixel border is applied to all sides, meaning the final image will have width = 160 and height = 144
• Final images consist of only 4 colours
• ggboy is meant to be a bit of fun. My attempt at ordered dithering may offend some experts/purists!

Animated GIFs

It’s experimental and a bit slow
