A paragraph of text is pulled together from a newspaper article surrounding one aspect of climate change, whether positive or negative. Relevant key words are also extracted – these provide the seeds for the randomness of each piece which affect the output from a series of mathematical instructions.

Each run of the code will produce different results: the colour palette used, the number and positioning of individual elements and the nature of the Perlin noise flow field, sixteen overlapping instances of which appear in each work.

The prettiness of the output belies the message and it is only by examining each more closely that the meaning becomes apparent.
