Genuary 2023.31: Break a previous image

2023-03-03

Genuary!

Spend a month making one beautiful thing per day, given a bunch of prompts. A month late, but as they say, ’the second best time is now'.

Let’s do it!

31) Deliberately break one of your previous images, take one of your previous works and ruin it. Alternatively, remix one of your previous works.

Genuary 2023.30: Minimalism

Genuary!

Spend a month making one beautiful thing per day, given a bunch of prompts. A month late, but as they say, ’the second best time is now'.

Let’s do it!

30) Minimalism


let gui;
let params = {
  lineWidth: 10,
  minWidth: 50,
  maxWidth: 100, maxWidthMax: 400,
  minHeight: 50,
  maxHeight: 100, maxHeightMax: 400,
  colorChance: 0.1, colorChanceMin: 0, colorChanceMax: 1, colorChanceStep: 0.01,
}

let box;
let colors = [
  "red",
  "blue",
  "yellow",
]

function setup() {
  createCanvas(400, 400);
  
  box = {
    x: -params.lineWidth,
    y: -params.lineWidth,
    width: random(params.minWidth, params.maxWidth),
    height: random(params.minHeight, params.maxHeight),
  }

  gui = createGuiPanel('params');
  gui.addObject(params);
  gui.setPosition(420, 0);
}

function draw() {
  strokeWeight(params.lineWidth);
  stroke("black");
  
  if (random() < params.colorChance) {
    fill(random(colors));
  } else {
    fill("white");
  }
  
  rect(box.x, box.y, box.width, box.height);
  
  box.y += box.height;
  box.height = random(params.minHeight, params.maxHeight);
  
  if (box.y > height) {
    box.x += box.width;
    box.y = -params.lineWidth;
    box.width = random(params.minWidth, params.maxWidth);
    box.height = random(params.minHeight, params.maxHeight);
  }
  
  if (box.x > width) {
    noLoop();
  }
}

I did have a sketch before that that ended up getting a little un-minimal:
