Midterm

For the midterm, we created a little game in Processing. Two players race each other by clicking the mouse or tapping the spacebar. the game code can be found here:

I would have liked to explore how to get output on the screen as well as how to make the second car (that moves with the spacebar) move with every tap of the spacebar as opposed to one large movement with one tap of the key.

Final Project

"La Gabbia" by auroraMeccanica is an installation that features a real cage that casts a shadow on a projected wall. As users interact with the cage and move it around, projected birds fly out from the shadow of the cage on the wall. This is my inspiration for my final project. (See a video of "La Gabbia").

My project features a flower garden with interactive flowers. As the user hovers the mouse over the flowers, the flowers move and butterflies fly out.
