Genuary 12 - Packing clocks

The theme for day 12 of Genuary was "packing". I spent some time learning what packing was and how it worked, and tried out a few things, and ended up using clocks.

Genuary 11 - Cross-stitched random walk

The theme for day 11 of Genuary was "No computer" and I decided to do a cross stitch.

I rolled a die before sewing each stitch.

1 = left, 2 = right, 3 = up, 4 = down, 5 = change colour, 6 = dance.

It got messy quickly. I have been continuing with it a bit since the 11th and it is slowly growing.

Changing colour of thread every time I rolled a 5 was annoying, because it meant I kept having to re-thread the needle. I also tired of doing stitches on top of stitches, so later stitches I stopped doing that.

Genuary 13 - Lobsters

The prompt for day 13 of Genuary was 800x80, so I tried out a few things that could fit into that size. My brain was a bit fried that day though, so I ended up with some lobsters:

Genuary 14 - Atari lines

For the Genuary theme "Something you’d never make", I used Atari BASIC. It was the first language I learnt to program in, on an Atari 800XL.

I no longer have the Atari 800XL, so I instead installed an emulator (Atari800MacX) and loaded up BASIC and made it print a few lines of text to start with. I couldn't remember that much about how to use it, so I read some instruction manuals and made it draw a few random lines! I should have spent more time understanding how colours worked though.
