allRGB

All your rgb are belong to us…

The objective of allRGB is simple: To create images with one pixel for every rgb-color (16777216 to be exact); not one color missing, and not one color twice.

The most obvious example is a series of 16 by 16 squares, each of which consists of a gradient. This is the first thing I did, and has been done many times before. However, it is theoretically possible to depict apparently random noise, geometric structures, and an old photograph of you and your cat.

allRGB challenges programmers, designers, and artists alike to push the limits of what is realized using the same basic set of rules.
