{"name":"BE NOT AFRAID","description":"Inspiration:\n\nThis tweetcart is an exploration of Entropy Locking, a process of randomly reducing the entropy of a generative space. In general, it is a technique that can be used to massively enrich for emergent behavior. The title is a reference to the sort of memeish \"biblically literal angels\" that are going around a lot, which I enjoy seeing. The intense shapes and colors here make me think of what it would be like to perceive an entity so far beyond comprehension... to the extant that would even be possible.\n\nWhat is a Tweetcart Relay?:\n\nBasically we receive a tweetcart as a 1/1 from a friend, and we modify it to make our own tweetcart, which we then send to someone else, to continue the process. Eventually it's our hope to have many relay chains going on with many people, anyone at all who likes to make tweetcarts or wants to learn how :)\n\nSuggested Relay Guidelines from @Alexthescott (tz1St3n29AbYXZXV8W1BG41qYzz86J2CFAW7):\n-> Copy the prior tweetcart 1:1, and tweak the cart while keeping some part of the original program until you've left your aesthetic changes however robust, and pass it on\n\nor\n\n-> Copy just a portion of the cart and build new, before passing on the tweet \n\nRelay Information:\n-> inspiration tweetcart: none (link; objkt number?)\n-> inspiration tweetcart author: username; tz address\n-> destination tweetcart author: @Alexthescott; tz1St3n29AbYXZXV8W1BG41qYzz86J2CFAW7\n\nPico-8 Source Code:\n-> 128 Tokens, 275 Characters;\n```\nr=rnd\np=srand\ns=r(-1)p(s)poke(0x5f54,0x60)poke(24364,7)a=r(32)+58b=r(32)+58c=1poke(0x5f2d,1)::_::_set_fps(60)\nfor i=0,2^8do\nx=sin(t)+r()*r(a)y=sin(t)*cos(t)+r()*r(b)c+=r(1)pset(x,y,c)end\nif(r()>.96)p(s)sspr(r(3),r(3),122,122,0,0,128,128)\nif(stat(34)==1)extcmd(\"reset\")\ngoto _\n```\n\nExplanation:\n```\n-- save chars by shrinking the names of these functions I will use a lot\nr=rnd  -- random number generator\np=srand  -- re-seed random number generator\n\ns=r(-1)  -- get a random number of all possible numbers to use as seed\np(s)  -- set the seed for initial setup\n\npoke(0x5f54,0x60)  -- enable the use of the display as a source instead of the sprite sheet\npoke(24364,7)  -- turn on horizontal + vertical mirror\na=r(32)+58  -- get a max value for x in our random loop\nb=r(32)+58  -- same but for y\nc=1  -- color, will increment, needs to be global\npoke(0x5f2d,1)  -- enable mouse control LOL\n::_::  -- label for GOTO statement, the draw loop, saves chars and also enables lots of framerate glitches (yum)\n\n-- I don't know why, but I swear that if this is in the loop, the colors get weirder\n_set_fps(60)  -- set 60 fps mode on\n\n-- loop within the loop\nfor i=0,2^8 do\n -- this began its life as a lemniscate\n x=sin(t)+r()*r(a)\n y=sin(t)*cos(t)+r()*r(b)\n\n c+=r(1) -- increment color\n pset(x,y,c)  -- draw a pixel\nend\n\n-- entropy locking, if random value is high enough, reset seed, and randomly feed-forward expand a part of the display\nif(r()>.96)p(s)sspr(r(3),r(3),122,122,0,0,128,128)\n\n-- UX; if click or tap the screen, generate a new one\nif(stat(34)==1)extcmd(\"reset\")\ngoto _ -- go back to the label and end this draw loop iteration\n```\n\nTo Friends and Creators:\nWant to change the code, or make a relay Tweetcart of yourself based on this one?
