I worked with Nicole Vella for this week’s homework.
This one which resembles a diffractive glass wall (or kind of like tiny glass brick) is achieved by creating a large grid (with tiny units) where each grid unit has its webcam image shifted slightly to focus on the part where it lies in the greater grid. A brownian noise was added on top by Nicole and then I also added an interactive “clear” spot that can be moved by the mouse. View on p5 here

The second randomly samples a gridded colour palette to create multiple moving shapes which are then mixed using brownian motion.
The grid size of the palette needs to be specified, and it will generate a different result every time. View on p5 here
