cool coding

this day, 14th jan 2011

the class is about processing - digital automated drawing machine, using code to create patterns.

i didn't see any patterns teaching in that day, but still we learned some cool drawing machine,

it made by the software processing, using coding,

here is the code.

my major before this course is information management, 

so if i have time i won't refuse to understand what all the codes mean.

looks complex, but actually it's easier than we thought.

we used two kinds of drawing machines, the first one is drawing lines,

the line starts on the top-left hand side, it will draw by following the mouse,

and when you click it again, it will automatically export to pdf file.

this is the lines i created.

with this program, i can draw some images which i have never expected, such as this one.

another program, it will start running the image like colorful smokes randomly, and when you click it again, it will automatically export to pdf file, too.

i created three images, all of them are cool to me.

after finishing the class, on my way home,

i was thinking how could i extend this images into more interesting picture.

i think the image combine with person might be a interesting idea because we are graphic communication design students, we should always focus on communicating with people.

i made a quick sketch of my idea on the bus.

when i got home, i start creating the image,

there's a bit different with my sketch, i don't have the photo of person i want,

 i decided to choose the photo with only head.

here is the outcome.

this one is the first one, after finished this, i think i'm gonna make a collection for all my friends.

so, wish me luck.
