Assignment: Week #3 (9/13)

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):

  • Chapter 3: Interaction (Pages 33-45)
  • Chapter 4: Variables (Pages 49-65)

Short Study #2: Responsive Drawing

Create a responsive drawing machine in Processing involving user input. The concept/theme is up to you. You may use the previous assignment as a starting point, or begin a completely new sketch.

The drawing must react to the mouse in some way, and must include the following:

  • Use of variables
  • Use of keyPressed() event function-- to clear/erase the background of your sketch
  • Use of mousePressed() event function-- what it does is up to you
  • Attention to visual detail (composition, color, line weight, etc.)
  • A title for the drawing (add as a comment at the top of your sketch) Hint: See p.42 in Learning Processing for description of keyPressed() and mousePressed() event functions.
