A unique color for every pixel
About
This app generates unique computational art where each pixel has a distinct color. Users can customize algorithms to influence the patterns and apply them as textures to various 3D shapes. It includes in-house music and options to save and reload custom creations.
What's New in Bloom.

FAQ
What is Bloom?
Bloom is an app that generates computational art, creating images where each pixel has a unique color. Users can customize parameters to influence the endlessly varied patterns and apply them as textures to 3D shapes.
How does Bloom generate unique colors for each pixel?
Bloom uses an algorithm where the number of pixels (N²) is equal to the number of possible colors (M³), ensuring each pixel has a distinct RGB color. This results in one million different colored pixels in a 1000x1000 dimension.
Can I apply my own images as textures in Bloom?
Yes, Bloom allows you to apply generated images or any other image as textures on various 3D shapes. This offers flexibility in customizing the visual output beyond the app's algorithmic creations.
What 3D shapes are available in Bloom?
Bloom supports a wide range of 3D shape geometries including sphere, torus, cube, cylinder, plane, capsule, pyramid, star, trefoil knot, exclamation heart, and heart.
Can I save my creations in Bloom?
Yes, you can save and reload your custom parameter values and creations as Bloom Documents using the Share menu. These documents support Quick Look Thumbnails for easy file identification.
Does Bloom have ads?
No, Bloom does not contain advertisements. It is a completely ad-free experience for users.
What devices is Bloom available on?
Bloom is available on macOS, iPhone, and iPad, offering a virtually identical experience across these platforms.
