Ever since I’ve heard Branden Hall talk about Okapi at this years Flash on the Beach Conference I’ve been eager to get my hands on it and start playing around. To the right you can see what I have come up with by now.

So I thought a lot of other people might like to try that out as well, so why not write a simple Tutorial. So here we go.

I just received an email from Joshua Davis that actually made me quite happy by telling me that I won the Hype Contest!

So after my last post on hype I kept on playing with it which eventually led to more visual output and another extension called ChainLayout.

At Halloween Joshua Davis and Branden Hall published a Framework for Generative Design called HYPE. Soon after they started a contest to encourage people to start playing with it.
Already before this contest was announced I had of course grabbed a copy and started to play with it. First I tried and compared it to my diploma project Coded Beauty which finally led me to writing my first extension for HYPE.
