    Sketching and Layering Graffiti Primitives
    (The Eurographics Association, 2019) Berio, Daniel; Asente, Paul; Echevarria, Jose; Leymarie, Frederic Fol; Kaplan, Craig S. and Forbes, Angus and DiVerdi, Stephen
    We present a variant of the skeletal strokes algorithm aimed at mimicking the appearance of hand made graffiti art. It includes a unique fold-culling process that stylizes folds rather than eliminating them. We demonstrate how the stroke structure can be exploited to generate non-global layering and self-overlap effects like the ones that are typically seen in graffiti art and other related art forms like traditional calligraphy. The method produces vector output with no artificial artwork splits, patches or masks to render the non-global layering; each path of the vector output is part of the desired outline. The method lets users interactively generate a wide variety of stylised outputs.

    Virtual Creature Morphology - A Review
    (The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2021) Lai, Gorm; Leymarie, Frederic Fol; Latham, William; Arita, Takaya; Suzuki, Reiji; Bühler, Katja and Rushmeier, Holly
    We present a review of methods for procedurally generating the morphology of virtual creatures. We include a range of methods, with the main groups being from ALife over art to video games. Even though at times these groups overlap, for clarity we have kept this distinction. By including the word virtual, we mean that we focus on methods for simulation in silico, and not physical robots. We also include a historical perspective, with information on methods such as cellular automata, L-systems and a focus on earlier pioneers in the field.
