My Day 24 Project for 30daysOfCreativity - newspaper cubes

My Day23 project for 30DaysOfCreativity is a drawing I made from the photo of my Day10 project

my day 15 project for 30daysofcreativity - another felt-tip pen drawing

My Day13-Project for 30daysofcreativity. I turned the Lyrics from one of my favourite beatles song into a world-cloud using PyTagCloud - guess which songtext I used :-)

I made a pencil-drawing of my wooden drawing doll. This is my day 12 project for 30DaysOfCreativity

I will participate in 30daysofcreativity again this year. So this is my creative thing for day 1:

Currently I'm writing some gis applications at work. As a by-product I made a Desktop background image from a world map.

Download the large version here

print it, send it aroud or distribute it otherwise! grant the permission to smile to others too :-)

I found a cheap digital picture frame at a local electronics store a while ago and searched a project for it. So i installed 60 jpegs with eyes looking in different directions on the pictureframe and started an endless slideshow. Now the picture frame sits on his shelf and is carefully watching whats going on in our livingroom.

To generate the eyes I wrote a short processing sketch that generates a new frame every time a key is pressed and saves it in the sketchfolder.

void setup() {
  size(768,480,P2D);
  smooth();
}

float d = random(360);


void draw() {
  background(0);
  fill(255);
  ellipse(284, 240, 200, 400);
  ellipse(484, 240, 200, 400);
  fill(0);


  float da = d;
  float db = d;

  float a = radians( da );
  float b = radians( db );

  ellipse(284 + cos(a) * 60, 240 + sin(a)*160, 80, 80);
  ellipse(484 + cos(b) * 60, 240 + sin(b)*160, 80, 80);
}

void keyPressed() {
  d = random(360);
  redraw();
  saveFrame();
}
