An Iterated Function System in Python
This is a fork of James Tauber's initial work.
The tone-mapped image handling comes from Minilight.
NOTE: I strongly recommend using PyPy to run this (it runs about 40x faster)
Running
Just run
python pyifs.py [configuration file]
Configuration
The iterated function system is customizable by using a json configure file (example).
Writing New Transforms
A new subclass of Transform should randomize its parameters in __init__
then implement a transform method that takes two args (the x, y of the
point) and returns a new x, y.
To-do
- let evaluation of iterated function system be multithreaded
- Check on why fern is not centered
- Allow customization of image output (background, color schemes)
- Make an easier input method? graphical?
- add deterministic mode and allow for viewing of iterated steps
