1) My final project is titled “Food Quiz: What Food Should You Eat Today?” and is essentially a short multiple choice style quiz with different questions that lead to different answers. It’s a food quiz, so based on their responses to random questions, people end up with a food that they should eat or try. I implemented classes and return functions into this project to make it work similarly to the way a Buzfeed quiz works, which is where I got part of my inspiration from. I also took influence from the Instagram account goodfoodcrapdrawing when determining how what the quiz results would look like. Similar to that Instagram account, I drew the food I wanted to show, and used my drawings as the final results for when people finish the short quiz. I like food and I like keeping myself entertained, so this was something that could allow me to be entertained and look at food, which seems like a win-win situation.

My generative landscape is one that has dinosaurs in the front and mountains moving in the back. I wasn’t really inspired by anything, I just really like dinosaurs so I figured it would be fun. I used a Perlin noise code to make the mountains, and I designed the dinosaurs and tree myself. I had some issues with my code, in the sense that it wouldn’t run when I made classes for my dinosaurs, so I have two links, one for my code, and another to see the actual landscape.

Idea #1: Outer Space

There would be planets and asteroids floating around and maybe a rocket ship would pass by.

Idea #2: Dinosaurs

There would be dinosaurs walking around and eating plants, and a pterodactyl can fly by. Or a meteor could crash.

Idea #3: Ocean

There would be lots of fishes hanging around and then they swim away when a shark passes by.

Eating Pizza Time

The pizza gets bitten every second, every minute another slice of pepperoni appears on the pizza, and every hour, the pepperoni should change color.

The passage of time will be shown by food being eaten over time. Every second a bite will be taken out of a food shown and every minute the food will reset.

Steps:

1. draw pizza
2. draw bite circles
3. repeat them so that they overlap the pizza
4. make a circle appear every second
5. reset circles every minute

 

1) Food: Every second, a bite is taken out of a food. Every second, a different food is shown. Every hour is a different meal/snack. The food shown will depend on the time of day. (i.e. pancakes, sandwich, steak, cake)

2) Water: Every second, a drop of water falls into a container. Every minute, that container’s water falls into a bigger container. Every hour, the bigger container fills up higher and higher with water and hits certain marks.

3) Sky: Every second, a plane moves in the sky. Every minute, the plane reaches the edge of the sky and leaves and restarts with every passing minute. Every hour, the sky changes color, pattern and weather. (i.e. blue, pink, dark, stars, cloudy)

 

Vera-Maria Glahn

I was interested in this person because it said that she was a designer for new media films, and I’m very interested in films and movies. When I saw her work, it was not at all what I expected but it caught my attention. Her artwork is very vibrant and colorful, which I like and it’s really fun to look at. Vera-Maria Glahn has made art and designs for Nike, Adidas, and Toyota among many other associations. I chose this particular piece of artwork because I think it captures the essence of this artist’s work and it’s very mesmerizing.
