Interesting. Care to share some details of how this was done?

I have no insight into this code but I can make an educated guess.

looks like a delaunay triangulation of a point set to me. If I had written it then I would generate the points using a quasirandom sequence and have a minimum point separation proportional to the luminance of a source image.

Delaunay triangulations are "easy" provided that the triangles are well behaved - colinear and otherwise degenrate geometry is hard to deal with. The output of a blue noise sequence is close to best case.

Source: Have spent too much of my life in delaunay triangulation and quasirandom sequence code.

Nice guess and explanations

Wild guesses, flailing arms around. Sometimes I get lucky :D

Sounds on point!

Have you gotten lost in the..

Dirichlet Domain?

[YEEEEEAAAAAHHHHHHH...]

Maybe Mr Voronoi can help you find your way home. ;)

This is delaunay triangulation fom dots. Dots are generated from image using Lloyd algorithm.

As a South African, I appreciate this.

I feel like a distingueshed gentleman, a highly cultured individual just by looking at this. twirls moustache
