Recitation 6: Processing by Madeline Shedd

Several Circles by Vasily Kandinsky

When picking a picture, I didn’t want to try something too complicated and overwhelm myself while using a new program. So I thought this painting would be good enough and I liked how it looked like a solar system. I planned to use Processing to try and recreate the painting as best I could. In hindsight, I do think I chose something that was a little too simple but I am pleased with how it turned out. I think it’s a nice digital rendition of the painting. There were some aspects of it I wasn’t able to capture, such as the white “glow” around the big blue circle. Overall I think Processing is a pretty good way of designing pieces of art, but due to my lack of experience and familiarity with the program I feel a little restricted. But I think once I learn Processing will become a better option to create regular art and interactive art.
