William Su – Project 04 – String Art

I just made a rainbowy web of strings that changes colors depending on mouseX and mouseY. Credit to the person that utilized rotate and translate to move stuff around, it made things a lot simpler to think about.

function setup () {
  createCanvas(400, 300);
  background(0);
  strokeWeight(0.5);
}

function draw () {
  for (var x = 0; x <= 50; x += 2) {
    var1 = x 
    var2 = x * 10
    b = constrain(var2, 0, (3 * width) / 5);

    //bottomleft
    stroke(mouseX, 0, 50);
    line(0, var2 + height / 2, var2, height);

    //topleft
    push();
    translate(300, 0);
    rotate(radians(90));
    stroke(mouseY, 0, mouseX);
    line(0, var2 + height / 2, var2, height);
    pop();

    //topright
    push();
    translate(400, 300);
    rotate(radians(180));
    stroke(mouseY, mouseX, 50);
    line(0, var2 + height / 2, var2, height);
    pop();

    //bottom right
    push();
    translate(100,300);
    rotate(radians(270));
    stroke(mouseX, mouseY, 50);
    line(0, var2 + height / 2, var2, height);
    pop();

    //2ndCurveTopRight
    stroke(50,mouseX, mouseY);
    line(width * 1.2, var2, var2 /2, 0);

    //2ndCurveBottomLeft
    push();
    translate(400, 300);
    rotate(radians(180));
    stroke(50,mouseY, mouseX);
    line(width * 1.2, var2, var2 /2, 0);
    pop();
  };
