Pixel Process #9 Poster #282

Hi everybody! The weather is going cooler, the day light shorter, winter is coming!

Welcome to the second last experiment poster creation of the mini-series Pixel Process. As usual I use Processing 3, and the lines of code wrote by Kim Asendorf​​. Check his website to find what he does​.

The Design

I probably use the wrong colors, too much or not enough contrast on my image because I had difficulties in obtaining something which looks good. I can’t satisfy myself with the pictures Processing generate, that keep me trying many different ways to obtain what I want. I try with a png file with the head of Apollo. After, I used a background with the head of Apollo. Still cannot figure out why it isn’t going the way I want.

In addition to this counter-time, the pixel sorting process took a long time. Too long to my taste. Waiting behind a screen is difficult, on the other hand, it allows me to think about my next steps, and it is like that I remember I can use a background.​ It helps​ to make the render a bit more interesting. I will take some time today to learn more about how to use the Pixel Sorter code from Kim Asendorf.

I was enthusiastic about discovering​ or re-discover Processing and its capabilities. I had an introduction during some days when I was in school. Unfortunately, as you know, a designer rarely knows how to code. I am interesting about code, I know HTML and CSS as well as some knowledge in procedural PHP, and jQuery, but it stop there.​
