Moodsoup artist portrait

Moodsoup

Stefan Reyniers, known as Moodsoup, merges art and science, exploring the world's complexities through generative art. With a background in graphic design and web development, he has evolved from using Flash to Processing, and now JavaScript and p5.js.

ABOUT

As a graphic designer and web developer, he has been experimenting with creative coding for the past two decades. Following the rise and fall of Flash, he transitioned to using Processing, and later on, JavaScript and p5js.

Which laws and conventions, or deviations, shape our world? How does complexity emerge from a basic set of rules? And how can these laws, whether hidden or apparent, be represented visually? Through generative art, these inquiries take shape as innovative concepts, ideas, shapes, colours, patterns and a new aesthetic.

The creation of generative art is always the result of a process of exploration, refinement, filtering and optimisation. Sometimes serendipity takes over in the course of this process. That’s when magical moments, unexpected discoveries and happy accidents arise.

Stefan's work can take on a variety of forms: a digital still image, an animation, a long-form collection, a physical pen plot, a fine-art print, or a combination of these.
