Assignments

Assignment 1

A1-01: Draw three lines.

A1-02: Draw five lines.

A1-03: Draw three ellipses.

A1-04: Control the position of two lines with one variable.

A1-05: Control the position and size of two lines with two variables.

A1-06: Control the properties of two shapes with two variables.

A1-07: Create a simple, regular pattern with six lines.

A1-08: Program your pattern from Assignment 1-07 using while().

A1-09: Draw a layered form with two new loops.

A1-10: Redo Assignment 1-05 using mouseX and mouseY as the variables.

A1-11: Draw two visual elements that each move in relation to the mouse in a different way.

A1-12: Draw three visual elements that each move in relation to the mouse in a different way.

A1-13: Move a visual element across the screen. When it disappears off the edge, move it back into the frame.

A1-14: Draw a visual element that moves in relation to the mouse, but with a different relation when the mouse is pressed.

A1-15: Using if and else, make the mouse perform different actions when in different parts of the window.

A1-16: Develop a kinetic image which responds to the mouse.

Assignment 2

A2-01: Using beginShape() and endShape(), create a composition with five or more vertices.

A2-02: Using beginShape() and endShape(), create a composition with ten or more vertices.

A2-03: Create an image different from A2-02, but using the same vertex data.

A2-04: Write a function with one parameter and demonstrate it visually.

A2-05: Write a function for drawing triangles and visually demonstrate its flexibility.

A2-06: Write a function with three or more parameters and visually demonstrate its flexibility.

A2-07: Create a dynamic animation using the cos() function as a generator for motion.

A2-08: Create a dynamic animation using the cos() and sin() function as a generator for motion.

A2-09: Move two visual elements across the screen using the random() function as a generator of movement. Give each element a unique nonlinear motion.

A2-10: Create an event that begins when the mouse is pressed and ends when the mouse is released.

A2-11: Create a responsive image that behaves differently when the mouse is moving and the mouse is dragging.

A2-12: Create a button that changes the color of the background when it is clicked.

A2-13: Program your moving elements from A2-09 but use classes to represent the two visual elements.

A2-14: Create a subclass of one of the asteroids classes that adds a new capability.

Assignment 3

A3-01: Create a subclass of PImage that implements a mosaic method

A3-02: Write a small app that demonstrates kinetic text

Assignment 4

[ A4: do something with widgets...]

Projects

Project 1

Project1: Display the progress of time in a non-traditional way.

Project 2

Project 2 - Part 1 - Animated Brushes

My drawing tool will offer different drawing options such as: different brushes and colors, transparency, and background color. When moving the mouse, the user will paint with the regular chosen brush. While dragging the mouse, the user will activate different animated brushes and create unexpected effects.

Additional features (if there is time to be implemented): diameter and eraser.

Project 2 - Part 2 - Animated Brushes

Project2: Create a drawing tool.

Project 3

Proposal(s) :)

>> My idea is to create an interactive world (or virtual environment) where some objects would be in motion and interact to one another (physics – motion, collision, distortion). Also, the user would be able to use sliders/buttons/mouse to change colors, brightness, transparency, velocity, etc. and/or to interact to the objects (grab and move them, for example).

>> My second idea is to improve my drawing tool. Implement "eraser" and "undo" functions and create new animated brushes (that is, I try different effects and different ways to move the brushes around my canvas).
