I was inspired by Jamie XX’s “In Colour” album artwork and visuals. I created a square that is drawn on a background where the color is altered based on mouse location – this is to mimic the spectrum in the album artwork’s background. The shape itself is a square and is altered by the mouse x and y, depending on the quadrant it is in (if you divide the canvas size into 4 parts) as I wanted the location of the shape to respond to the mouse placement as well.
