Advent.js is an anthology of 25 beautiful pieces of digital art made by writers, poets, engineers, artists and other creative coders, with one new piece being revealed each day of December leading up to Christmas. Each piece uses procedural and generative techniques in some way - like random noise, text template grammars, or other algorithmic techniques for making things.

Controls

The calendar is primarily controlled with the mouse, and has only been tested on Desktop. Click on a lit window to open it and begin the sketch. Click the back button to return to the main page. Individual sketches sometimes have their own controls - these are written underneath the sketch itself.
