For my generative landscape I created a scrolling horizon of a military graveyard. As the screen scrolls two horizons lines moving at different speeds scroll past the screen. These horizon lines are shaped and shaded in accordance to noise. As the horizon lines move grave markers along them move with them. These grave markers are generated at random intervals with a random tilt. Between the grave markers are pale ghostly silhouettes of soldiers, generated at random intervals. As the scene scrolls by red flower petals fall in at random from the right, bouncing in accordance to noise and randomly varying in size and shape. The design of this project takes inspiration from John McCrae’s poem “In Flanders Field.”
