Show HN: UJI – an experimental and minimalist generative art creation tool

The tiled buttons at the top are presets – use them as jumping-off points, or click your way through them to see what's possible before starting afresh by yourself. The sliders control all aspects of the generated images. Hover over the icons next to them (which feature glyphs from Imperial Aramaic and Phoenician) for descriptions of what each slider does.
Feel free to leave links to pieces you've made in this thread – I'd love to see what you come up with.
I’m very surprised to not see it on the front page! Have you posted this to /r/internetisbeautiful?
Honestly this is wonderful and I hope to use it to introduce some creative coding concepts when teaching
That's precisely what I was going for (plus, it's impossible to find descriptive icons for most of these options, and a wall of text below each option might lead to excessive scroll wheel wear).

Getting to the front page is a coin flip – you win some, you lose some. But perhaps I'll submit it to the second chance pool [1]. And no, I've mostly weaned myself off Reddit, but you're right, that sounds like a good place to gather some additional feedback. I've just posted UJI there [2].

I'm so glad to hear this! :)
