On a train at the moment, and there's WiFi!
Not fast enough to do any work, which is a shame, but fine for browsing.
Whilst just poking around (something I must do a lot more, it seems), I stumbled across this:

Here's a video, to give you an idea of what's going on.
Essentially, this dude has written a program which generates cool nighttime cityscapes. If you head over to his blog, you'll see, in no small amount of detail, how he's done it, but the video will give you most of what you need to know.
I spent a couple of hours reading all the posts in detail, and if you're a programmer, you may find it interesting.
I guess the key part is that he hasn't drawn anything at all - just given the computer some rules on how to generate these cities.

Hello there. This is my blog. That's not a picture of me, but it's what I aspire to look like in my later years. It's a blog touching on technology - APIs, Games, hardware; really if anything comes under my scrutiny I'll write about it ad nauseum. I like goats, sleep and the banjo, although not always in that order.
