Code Your Way - Week 5 (02/24/2025)

Version Control 2 (Git) & Parametric Geometry

This past week was such a busy blur, I wish I had more time to work through this week's exercises and think more critically about the things I was doing in the sketches.
​
But midterm season is among us and we are all running around frantically trying to create work that we can be proud of. Even CYW is getting serious...

Exercises with Sine, Cosine, Random, and Noise

I decided to select one of the 5 sketches to work with, and landed on the sketch with points. I tinkered with adding more points and altering the parametric relationships between each dot path and color. The symmetry of this piece is quite fascinating, I hope to return to this sketch in the future and create iterate upon it some more.

Practicing with Git

This week, I had very limited time to work through Code Your Way exercises, so rather than creating a generative piece of art work, I decided to practice version control while making minor changes to the preloader that I created in week one.
I focused on cleaning up the code on my preloader and make it adaptive to window sizes as I hope to use this somewhere on my future website. Each time I made a major change to the code, I would commit to the main branch.
Next week, I look forward to making more interesting changes and creating new branches.
