Matt DesLauriers’ website is a unique fusion of generative art, computer graphics, and low-level programming. Based in London, DesLauriers is both an artist and a developer, exploring the beauty of code through visual, interactive compositions powered by WebGL, GLSL, and JavaScript.
His site offers a rich gallery of browser-based visual experiments, showcasing real-time rendering techniques and shader-driven artworks. Each piece strikes a balance between mathematical abstraction and aesthetic intuition – whether it’s particle simulations, dynamic light effects, or procedurally drawn forms.
In addition to the visual work, the site functions as a technical blog, filled with in-depth essays that explain the creative and algorithmic processes behind his art. Topics include particle systems, UV mapping, lighting models, and performance optimization in generative graphics.
Matt is also a prolific contributor to the open source community. He’s the author or maintainer of popular creative tools like canvas-sketch
, glslify
, and regl
, which are widely used by creative coders and digital artists around the world.
More than just a portfolio, mattdesl.com is a thoughtfully crafted digital space – a hub for inspiration, learning, and experimentation. If you’re interested in generative art, coding as creative practice, or browser-native digital beauty, this site is a must-visit.
