In the second week, I already found I made progress. Last week the program I wrote has some problems, I spent hours to looks at it and trying to debug still did not work. This week open that program again and immediately saw what the problem was. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
In this week’s project, I found the most challenging part is to connect the artistic idea to the code – in what way do I choose to realize it? It’s almost like creating a machine and a system or thinking of myself’s thinking. Or like navigation, looking at the map and figuring out how to go to my destination. Sometimes I have to create my own pathway. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Looking at Leander Herzog<\/a>‘s website, I am fascinated by how much computers can generate and we call it art. I found the interactive art approach interesting. It’s important to think about the way people interact – is it by moving the mouse, by pressing the mouse (in the condition of giving them a mouse and a screen); by touching, by looking at the camera, or by speaking to a microphone… And how do we suggest they to do so? By using visual implications in order to stimulate their curiosity?<\/p>\n\n\n\n Currently, I’m glad that I know how to make a program that captures mouse movement. But other skills still need to be learned.<\/p>\n\n\n\n And most significant to think – in your generative art, is it a pure image, for the sake of visual effect, or it embeds some other information, or do you endow it a meaning? And do you come up with an idea and then create a program accordingly to realize your idea; or do you create a visual effect and then associate a meaning? What’s your intention? What’s the relationship between you and the image you create? Both ways for me makes sense and feels equal to me. But important to think about.<\/p><\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" In the second week, I already found I made progress.
