A personal exploration of artistry and architecture, Artisans is a photobook featuring original images captured during my trip to Los Angeles. Showcasing the Getty Museum of Art and Griffith Observatory, this project highlights the intricate designs, breathtaking vistas, and the intersection of creativity and science that define these iconic landmarks.
Spindle
Spindle is a generative art piece I developed using the p5.js JavaScript library on OpenProcessing.org. This interactive artwork features a dynamic series of rotating squares, inviting users to actively influence the size, position, and hue of each iteration in real time.
The interactivity is multi-faceted: mouse movement determines position, with the canvas divided into four quadrants. Squares are randomly generated within the quadrant where the mouse is located, and their hue and size are mapped relative to their distance from the canvas center. The farther the mouse moves from the center, the more vibrant and varied the hues become, while smaller squares are generated closer to the center.
Additional controls include key commands such as '1' and '2' to adjust saturation and brightness, SHIFT to slow the iterations, 'C' to clear the canvas, and a click function to save the artwork locally.
Spindle exemplifies my ability to integrate creative coding with user-centric design, creating an immersive and customizable visual experience that blends art, technology, and interactivity.
