Ever wanted to take a series of images and make grids from them? Ever wanted to loop over the images and create ever more fractured but yet somehow consistent glitchy grids? Then this script is for you. Inspired by Xavier Dallet aka chan somethingstar and his Instagram group Baobab users https://www.instagram.com/baobab_users/
Requires imagemagick, bash and a basic knowledge of how to run shell scripts. Linux Script below. Name it and save with .sh extension. Modified version for windows 10+ using git bash, after the linux version - I've tested both as working.
