Genuary 15 - Rug

The prompt for Genuary 15 was "design a rug". I based mine on Ikea's Stockholm rug, black and white stripes.

Genuary 16 - Colour sensing

I had fun with the "generative palette" prompt! I hooked up an Arduino to a colour sensor. Then in Processing, I got the computer to generate a palette based on the colour of the object you hold up to it. When you moved the mouse around, it drew dots based on that palette.

Colour sensing example
Genuary 17 - Pi = 4

The prompt was "what happens if Pi = 4?" It turned out not a lot in the code I wrote.

Not quite circles

Genuary 18 - The spinning chips of destiny and the wind

My first attempt at the prompt of "What does wind look like?" went quite wrong and I have titled it instead the Spinning chips of destiny: video on Flickr.

In the end, I went with a sound recording I took of the wind, and then exported from Audacity with the following settings:

Format: Other uncompressed files
Header: Raw (header-less)
Encoding: U-Law.

I then changed the file name to have the extension .data and then loaded it into GIMP.

The Wind
I took the Ikea rug pattern from a previous day and added some dots!
