Running

  • Source set-up-python-venv.sh
  • Run make

For example:

. set-up-python-venv.sh
make

This will initialize a python environment and activate it locally to this project. To tear down the environment execute the deactivate command at your shell prompt.

Project Description

Oberlin College Winter Term 2024 - CS p2p Software Application Project

Application Description and Feature Set

  • Peer-to-peer Collaborative Art Generator where peers contribute Art Fragments to a drawing asynchronously in response to a Commission.
  • An Originator Artist (peer) announces a Commission for an Art Piece to create with constraints (e.g., color palette, limit to geometric shapes, limit to abstract shapes, etc).
  • For the MVP implementation, the application will generate simple Art Fragments. It is not an AI generative art application. Though, pluggable generation may be considered.

Personas

Originator Artist

  • Commissions and contributes to Collaborative Art Pieces.

Contributor Artist

  • Contributes to Collaborative Art Pieces.

Art Collector

  • Collects and trades Art Pieces.
  • Commissions Remix Art based on Art Pieces in their Collection.

User Stories

  • As an Originator Artist, I can Commission a new Art Piece, specifying constraints and a deadline, so that Contributors can provide Art Fragments.
  • As an Originator Artist, I can sign the completed Art Piece I commissioned, so that it can be verified as the original.
  • As a Contributor artist, I can receive Commission announcements, so that I can contribute Art Fragments that I generate.
  • As a Contributor artist, I can integrate Art Fragments from other Contributor Artists, so that my local canvas reflects the current state of the Art Piece.
  • As an Art Collector, I can trade Art Pieces that I own for Art Pieces others own, so that I can vary my art collection.
  • As an Art Collector, I can Commission an Art Piece to enhance, so that I can make Remix Art.

Implementation Notes

  • Integration of Art Fragment Contributions will be executed throughout the peers in a decentralized fashion.

Enhancement List

  • May try https://pypi.org/project/nose/ for running tests for its enhanced feature set. The simple Makefile using unittest's test discovery feature suffices to start.
