Circus is an exploration of simple patterns and the style of abstract East-German art in the times of cold war. The "material feel" should be like it was painted with acrylics or oil on wood plates, so underlaying layers "peek through". The overall appearance is a bit rough and raw.

The algorithm consists of a very simple Perlin-Noise domain warping basically.

Even if some resulting works may seem boring, i hope there will be some pearls which give have the intended feel.
