#Assignment: Week #2 (8/31)

Read and Do:

Read and do the exercises in the following chapters. Code along in Processing-- do not just read the book!

In "Learning Processing" by Daniel Shiffman (Second Edition, 2015):
Introduction (Pages xi-xxii)
Chapter 1: Pixels (Pages 3-17)
Chapter 2: Processing (Pages 19-31)

Short Study #1: Algorithmic Drawing

Create a static drawing in Processing using 2D primitive shapes. The concept/theme is up to you.
Projects must include:

  • A canvas size of 1080x720
  • At least 5 primitives (can be the same shape or different shapes)
  • Variation in stroke weight and fill color
  • A Title for the drawing

For inspiration, revisit some of the artists we have looked at. For more inspiration, here are some other artists working with simple geometric shapes and rules-based art: Bridget Riley, Piet Mondrian, Ellsworth Kelly, Peter Halley, Frank Stella, Wassily Kandinsky....

Due by the beginning of our next class.
