Quantum Tidal Effect
An animation created by blending between a gradient and its 180 rotated double. Color quantization via an improved Floyd-Steinberg method using colors compatible with the 8 color palette used to create my machine knit 40”x60” blankets.

Pinwheel
Color quantization via Floyd-Steinberg dithering applied to a spinning oval. Scalled 50% to bring out additional artefacts.

Alpha Test
Color quantization using a Floyd-Steinberg dithering method and a custom palette is applied to an animated fade between two colors not present within the final palette. The result is down sampled by 50% without using interpolation (every other row/column of pixels is discarded).

Bank of America Color Palette
A test to see if using a circular shape changes the form of the artifacts produces by dithered color quantization and down-sampling the image resolution without using any interpolation method.

Intermediaries No. 2
Recipe:
1. Create looping fade between two colors.
2. Use a Floyd-Steinberg (or other) dithering algorithm to reduce the color palette down to 2-6 colors.
3. Re-scale/Down-sample the image to 50% using no-interpolation.
4. Page through frames and select the best re-imaginings of the intermediate colors in your fade.
Seems that tumblr’s image compression algorithm is getting more aggressive…

Intermediaries No. 1
Quicktime 7 Pro tries to down-sample a 1920x1080 px dithered GIF to 50% its original size and gets it wrong in all the right ways.

Oscillating Between Dawn and Dusk (Never Day / Never Night)
Dithering and Resampling Artifacts in GIMP. Started with two layers—-one orange, the other blue—-at 1920 x 1080 px. Created a blended frame animation to fade between the two. Dithered using Floyd-Steinberg, then exported as GIF. Loaded into Quicktime 7 Pro and noticed some pretty awesome artifacts at 50% scale and attempted to recreate intentionally. Down-sampled and rescaled a 250x250 patch of the original to produce the above animation. Artifacts of algorithms designed to work with human perceptual characteristics are used to induce artifacts in visual perception.
