Unit 1/2 Assignment (Part 4)

14/10/2019

In today’s assignment Chris had given us a tutorial to follow (link below)

In this assignment we’ll be creating a mood board with falling objects/shapes, example a parachute, with our own ideas.

After thinking what I could have from falling down I thought of shooting stars, shooting stars fall from the sky but then disappear. I’m going to do some research to find out how to do this and maybe think of different ideas.

After doing some research I’ve come up with a new idea, instead of shooting stars I want to have falling stars so maybe I can have 10 stars fall when I click my Left mouse button.

After searching for a code for what I want, I’ve found a code that when you click the left mouse button stars will fall down from the sky, this is what I wanted.

Code – This is not my code full credit in link below.

Below I’ll leave a YouTube video of the code I’ve found for the falling stars, going through the code I’ve messed around with the code so that I haven’t just copied and pasted, I want it to be different and kinda my own.

Within the code I changed the speed,size and colour to the stars and I’ve changed the background to black and the stars colour to white. When the code is running and I click the mouse to make the stars fall there will be 20 stars falling and made them fall slower then it was, from 30 gravity to 1000.

Update.

Me and Chris sat down and went through my code, we decided to make the stars fall on there own without pressing the mouse.

We also said about the stars changing different colours when falling, so Chris helped with with the code and now when the stars fall the stars change into 16 different colours using the array. (I’ll record a video and post the link down below). In the video it will show you the stars falling on their own when running the code and also changing colour when running.

 

In the SketchMapping Test in processing we had to add our code from Part 3 assignment. (The code that produced some generative art) and projection map it onto a cube (or other interesting shape).

Below is a picture of  Part 3 and under that will be a YouTube video with the part 3 code in the sketch mapping.

YouTube video, is this video it shows all the code within the program and then shows me running the code and shows what it does. I taken a different code and made it run in sketch mapper to allow the code to be shown on a objects using a projector.
