Shape Collage

Vincent Cheung

Shape Collage creates a collage by taking a bunch of photos and moving them around on a page so that they form a shape. When arranging the photos, they should be spread apart as far as possible so that you can see each one. The photos should cover the entire shape. Shape Collage uses a very simple and fast machine learning algorithm to arrange the photos in the collage. It's not perfect, but it does a pretty good job. The basic idea is to throw a bunch of photos on a page and then one at a time, move each photo away from the other photos, while still staying inside of the shape. Keep doing this until the photos are evenly spaced throughout the shape.
