PixelSorting VS pixelsort

I wrote a pixel sorting library for fun in processing some time ago. That looks like pixels were sorted vertically, but instead of replacing them in the same line, they are placed with sinusoidal shapes. That's an interesting effect. Once I played with pixels with sinusoidal displacement ( Ghost/underwater/wobbling effect cat). I never thought of using it inside some pixel sorting case.

Thanks a lot! I don't remember the exact process but I used some pixelsorting (I always use this pixelsorting tool) and a little tool I created myself (I haven't published that project yet, but I plan doing that in the future). I also use GIMP to mix the different images with the layer mode (I mostly use „lighten/darken only”, the „HSV […]” or „LCh […]” options) and shifting the layers around. The „Hue-Saturation” tool in GIMP can also give pretty nice results in combination with different layer modes. Honestly I always just play a bit with the different GIMP tools until I get to a result I enjoy. The reddit post with the original image sadly got deleted already… I hope this helps you at least a bit.

this was more of an experiment to see if i could do pixel sorting in ubuntu. relies on ffmpeg and a python pixel sort library that can be run on the terminal.

Yes, it's actually two pixelsorted versions of the image merged together with the original image. I used this pixelsorting algorithm and merged the images with gimp.

On the Mac, I use this python module: https://github.com/satyarth/pixelsort but there is also these: https://github.com/wolfembers/Pixelsorting https://github.com/madlitch/MadPixelSort-Legacy

I used this pixelsorting algorithm (file-edges interval function with a mask generated with elementary-ca). Then I loaded the original image (sadly the creators account is alredy deleted) and the pixelsorted image into Gimp. I modified the pixelsorted image by applying a layer mode to it (I think it was "lighten only") and flipping it horizontally.
