I recreated “Random Squares” by Bill Kolomyjec. You can see a picture of my creation below. The hardest part of this for me was getting it so there was only one cell that displayed a single square. I try to avoid while loops at all cost, and I had to mess around with while loops to get it working. Getting the squares to embed in each other was a little tricky as well. You can find my code here. Pardon the terrible variable names.
The piece of computer art that I chose to recreate is this:
The result is this:
Here is my drawing machine; it can draw lines and circles with white, blue, green or red on the black background.
For this week’s assignment we were asked to recreate one of the computer graphics from Computer Graphics and Art Magazine.
I looked at Hiroshi Kawano’s prints:
and made this simplified version that changes with a click:
Here’s how it looks like:

When you move the mouse on the screen, the icon will move with the mouse and continually rotate. In addition, the color of background will turn lighter as time goes on.

For our first Processing assignment, I created a minimalist (black and white) drawing machine.
I made a simple drawing tool that can be used to make drawings with colorful circles and squares.
What if I was an annoying cat? And we couldn’t communicate? And all I could say was meow?
My version of the super famous Nyan Cat… If only I could add music to mine 🙁 🙁
For the assignment to create something that mimics human or animal behavior using motors, I created a cat scratching inside the box.
