working again with using perlin noise for generating motion, sketch 15 draws straight lines - lots of straight lines.
perlin noise generates 2 pairs of xy coordinates, drawing a straight line between them with a very low alpha value (and pseudorandom colour values), producing beautiful results when the lines cross over each other. playing with the number of lines, colours, noise increments and the weighting of the noise (which direction the lines are more inclined to head in) vastly changes the outcome.

the ones tagged with HD on the playlist are 1280×720, so they’re a bit slower to load but look really nice in fullscreen mode…

another quick processing sketch, some 2d drawing stuff.
i was inspired by superdraw as a live visual tool based on (sort of) simple line drawings, and started having a play around. i’m yet to dive into 3D in processing, so the output is somewhat limited, but it’s a start, right?

i’ve been using processing again lately, and i’ve had a few decent outcomes. sketch 10b just spits out ellipses in different directions at different velocities according to a perlin noise algorithm. veeeeery simple stuff, but i’m just trying to remember how to do it all again…

March 17, 2008. other
so, i’ve decided to start a new blog.
since i’m back at uni now, i thought it’d be a good idea to have a place online where i can easily upload sketches, works in progress and things that aren’t complete or polished enough to be in my portfolio. i’ll probably keep my other blog online for the other things that i (used to) use it for, but it’s been pretty neglected lately.
i’m going to start by posting up some of my older stuff before i get on to what i’ve been working on lately, just for the sake of completeness.
so, let’s get started…
