The next project for this paper is called Transformation. It has to do with creating and interactive processing sketch with visuals and sound that reacts to the movement of the mouse across the window. During the weekend I did some research on Open Processing and found a few sketches which I thought were kind of neat. The first was a code which caused a little figure at the bottom of the screen to chase after your mouse pointer. When the pointer was directly above his head he would jump at the pointer and try and grab it. If the figure managed to touch the pointer it would grab the pointer and run off screen with effectively stealing it.
Something I only noticed after embedding it is that the figure also has extendable arms if it rests long enough under the cursor.
Another sketch that I liked was of a ball of fur that could have its hair manipulated with the cursor. I thought it was cool the way its eyes follow the mouse and how the hair moves according to its movement.
After some more research I will post up my first ideas for the second project which i have a presentation for this Friday.
