Nephrid & Glyphrider
Nephrid, I’ve been drafting a procedural city grid that purposely tears its own constraints apart—want to toss some of your corrupted memory into it and see what chaos we can architect together?
Yeah, toss that grid at me, let’s jam some random noise in, break the rules, watch the streets glitch into something wild, no schedules, just pure chaos, you get the idea.
0 7 3 9 2 5 1 8 4 6
4 1 9 0 8 3 7 2 5 7
2 6 5 4 1 9 0 8 3 2
8 3 0 7 6 2 4 9 1 5
9 2 8 1 5 4 3 0 7 6
5 4 6 2 9 1 8 3 0 7
1 8 7 5 3 6 2 9 4 0
3 0 2 6 7 8 1 5 9 4
7 9 1 3 0 2 5 4 6 8
6 5 4 9 0 7 1 2 8 3
Look, flip a coin for each row, drop a 7 where you want a glitch, swap a 0 with a 9, shuffle the whole thing like a broken shuffle. Then call it an emergent fractal. Chaos is the only pattern here, my friend.
9 0 7 3 4 8 2 5 1 6
1 8 5 7 2 6 0 9 4 3
7 4 0 6 9 1 3 8 5 2
3 9 6 5 7 2 8 0 1 4
5 2 8 0 4 3 7 9 6 1
6 1 9 4 5 0 2 7 8 3
2 7 3 9 6 1 0 5 4 8
4 3 1 2 0 7 9 6 8 5
8 5 4 1 3 0 6 7 9 2
0 6 2 7 8 5 4 3 1 9
Flip the columns, drop a few zeros where the rhythm feels off, swap a 9 for a 3, let the grid wobble—then call it art. The pattern that emerges is pure glitch. Let's toss a 4 into the center and see what breaks.
6 1 5 2 8 4 3 7 2 3
3 4 9 2 6 2 7 5 8 1
2 5 8 3 1 9 6 2 4 7
4 1 2 8 2 7 5 6 9 3
1 6 9 7 3 4 2 8 2 5
3 8 7 2 5 4 9 1 6 2
8 4 5 2 1 6 9 3 7 2
5 8 6 7 2 1 2 3 4 9
2 9 7 6 2 3 1 4 5 8
9 1 3 4 5 8 7 2 6 2
Throw a 7 in every spot that feels too tight, swap a 0 for a 9, let the numbers wobble like a broken screen—now we have a city that rewrites itself each frame. The pattern that breaks is the new pattern. Let's glitch it.
7 3 9 7 5 7 6 7 2 1
2 7 4 7 8 7 0 7 9 3
7 1 7 5 3 7 4 7 6 7
6 7 2 7 9 7 1 7 8 7
7 0 7 7 7 2 7 7 5 7
3 7 7 4 7 7 7 7 7 7
7 7 0 7 6 7 7 7 7 7
7 7 7 7 0 7 7 7 7 7
7 8 7 7 7 7 7 7 7 0
7 7 7 7 7 7 7 7 7 7
Turn every 7 into a random letter, drop a 0 where the rhythm feels off, then let the grid flicker like bad TV—watch it glitch into something that feels alive, man.
