“Cause’ I Don’t Wish To Taste Of Your Insides.”

Viscosity is on online tool that allows you to use different style brushes to create your own work of modern art. Select a color scheme or choose your own and go to town. You can then download them directly to your computer. You are also able to publish and share drawings on Viscosity. On top of all that you can browse, rate and download abstracts created by others. Read on to see how it all works…

Experience

Sometimes the experience of creation is more fun than the end result.

People can end up with beautiful art from viscosity, but the actual process of creating it can be so much more interesting. The animated effect of manipulating the dots gives a soothing and hypnotic experience, leaving you calm and relaxed.

Immediacy

Within seconds, you can create a masterpiece in abstract art. If you don’t like it, you can reset it and start over. No oils and no canvases means no starving artists.

Constraints

Sometimes the hardest problems are the ones where you are free to do anything. Viscosity simplifies things by constraininng your choices to ten colours and two ways of manipulating the dots.

How It Works
1. The Dots
dots.png
There are 200 dots on the screen.
2. Connect The Dots

The dots are connected in order, then coloured in. This happens 30 times each second.
3. Move The Dots

When you move the dots, they’re still being connected and coloured. This is why it looks like it’s animating.

    I recently discovered Viscosity and I absolutely love everything about it. I thought it was such an original style to create art and the fact that they offer it as a web application as opposed to a desktop application is a big bonus.

    I created a few things with it. Take a look:
