- Process
1. Play with the example code of the L-system and add some circles at the end of the branches.
2. I focused on the basic L-system and added GUI to it.
3. I changed the scale and found it more dense when the length increased.
4. I removed the branches and only kept the circles. To see the overlap pattern clearly, I adjusted the transparency.
5. I added more fractal trees and found the pattern looked like a mandala.
6. By playing with the values on GUI, I got a more complicated change of patterns and a strobing effect. It started to look nice and cool now.
7. I added RGB color change and transparency to GUI so that I can adjust the pattern to a better effect directly through GUI.
8. I added the change of the number of the fractal trees to GUI and used sin() in the x-position of circles to transform.
9. This one is the outcome of using sin() in x-position and cos() in y-position.
10. This one is the outcome of using sin() in both the x-position and the y-position.
• Reflection/ Lesson-learned
– A little change in sin() cos() makes various patterns.
– Try more, play more, and surprises come.
