GML Stencils….



F.A.T. friend and GML collaborator Golan Levin has released the latest addition to the world of Graffiti Markup Language……. GML Stenciler: Laser Cut Patterns from Graffiti Markup Language. He writes:
“We announce the release of GMLStenciler, an open-source software project for converting Graffiti Markup Language (GML) drawings into vector-art stencils suitable for laser cutting. This free tool solves the problem of transforming GML’s widthless linear strokes into adjustably-thickened stencil patterns with automatically bridged islands. GMLStenciler is built in openFrameworks, an open-source C++ toolkit for creative coding; it can be downloaded here (with complete source code) for Windows and Mac OSX.”
For more information, downloads and source code, view Golan’s project post.

Randy added these pithy words on Jul 05 10 at 1:19 pmCharlie’s project…!
“The GMLStenciler software was entirely developed by Charlie, my 15-year-old intern, during June 2010. Charlie (a rising Junior in a Pittsburgh-area high school) has a solid background in Java programming and server-side web scripting, but hadn’t previously worked with C++, OpenGL, OpenCV, or openFrameworks, so this proved to be an ideal learning project. Here’s a photo of Charlie. Charlie developed GMLStenciler in openFrameworks under the auspices of Golan Levin.”
