My project is an animation of eye blinking and a butterfly flapping wings inside of the eye. When the mouse is clicked, the eye would stop blinking and the tear would appear on the screen. This project is inspired by the idea of sometimes people walk into our lives and we build a relationship with them, whether it is a friendship or romantic relationship. For different reasons, these people may walk out of our lives someday and losing a relationship with a person can be really hard no matter what kind of relationshipit is. I took a picture of my eye when it is open and when it is close, and make the blinking effect by using the animation function in p5js. The reason why I chose to use a butterfly as one of the most important elements of my project is when people think of a butterfly, they often think of something that is beautiful and delicate. The relationship we build with others can be really beautiful and important to us, so I used butterfly as a representation of the relationship and when the relationship is gone, the butterfly flies away.
