Today in cool things interesting people are making with computers: Sweaterify, a web app that allows you to turn any picture into an ugly sweater.
Brooklyn’s Mariko Kosaka created Sweaterify over the weekend. She’s the co-organizer of BrooklynJS, and not surprisingly, her first designs were fellow BrooklynJSers.
Outgoing BrooklynJS organizer Jed Schmidt, featured prominently on an ugly sweater.
Kosaka’s tweet announcing the project went fairly viral, with more than 300 retweets, starting a conversation in which people showed off their designs.
People got pretty into designing their own sweaters.
Kosaka put the project up on GitHub, if you’re interested in taking a look under the hood.
