A while ago when we were learning how to code the Sol Lewitt’s drawing rules on P5js, I was also experimenting with this thing:
https://editor.p5js.org/nilampwns/present/zXsweTwz
Basically it’s the similar concept of the Sol Lewitt drawings rule #115, except I added more rules to it:
- It starts with 10 points on the screen
- The points are now moving floating circles
- Every time the circles are within the radius of 25px of each other, it draws a line between them, and spawn a new circle randomly on the screen
And as time goes on the number of circles keep growing. I wish to keep adding on more rules, possibly making the cells flock together. But that’s another project for another day.
I had difficulties with the coding part of this mini project. I was not documenting the process well to share it here on my blog, but if there is anything that I learned from doing this is that the console log is your best friend.
