  • @Rob_T_Firefly@masto.hackers.town You could make a scannable QR code that looks a lot like that. Especially if you use high-redundancy. In fact, you could probably make a generator. There used to be a "spaghetti image" generator that would take any image and generate something similar in strands of spaghetti. There's still a pastify tool available. It's based on https://arxiv.org/abs/1508.06576 which slightly predates when current genAI stuff. Finally, if you put a lot of manual work to isolate the "pixels" that are "clearly" black and a separate pool that are "clearly" white, you could use imagemagik or similar to stitch them all together based on QR bits, even applying some blurring/smoothing function to the edges. Anyway, cool image. Thanks for sharing. Made me remember things from a happier decade.
