Alice in Wonderland (the Bitmap)
// January 25th, 2010 // Experiments, Generative art, Source code & tutorials

Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland. Written in 1865 by Lewis Carroll.
The full story, 12 chapters, more than 25000 words, all crammed in one Bitmap
Detail:

The text “fitting” algorithm isn’t perfect yet, but hey, it did the trick.
Source code: Alice_src_FDT
FDT Air project + I lowered the input bitmap size and quality for this download
















Wow, great work! How long did it take to generate?
Niiice!
thanks for the comments
@David: It took +- 1 hour
But if you want a better quality (now its rather low) Its gone take much more time .
Nice work kris!

Oh wow, that’s awesome work. I have never seen this type of thing done to such description before. I love it
wow impressive stuff
is there an online live version (not the bitmap)?
besides ive been playing with this code for days ;
couldnt be able to make it work,
any basic help?
Hi, Been messing around with the code, and much like Ocha I cant seem to get it to work.
using FDT 4, but all I get is a .swf with the letter A on a white background.
Any help to get this running would be much appreciated, Sorry for the n00b request
Hi, sorry for my late reply.
To make it work in FDT, make a flex sdk pure actionscript -air project, and include the asset swc.
Or if you want to compile with Flash, remove everything from the stage in flash, and set Alice.as as your document class. (and maybe you need include the flex core lib in your classpath…? )
Hope that helps
