Anuszkiewicz’s Splendor Of Red<\/em> use multiple lines close to give a sense of deceptive depth, while Daphnis’s THE EXPLOSION<\/em> uses thin shapes and bold colors to show movement and direction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Starting with the base jitter file provided on canvas, I created two spheres and one opens square of varying scales.
After looking into some of the openGL<\/s> Tutorials, I found an example that included a 3D object with shading options [Update: It wasn’t openGL, The wireframe blocks came from the “help” tutorial for the “jit.gl.gridshape<\/em>“.] There was a wireframe option so I enabled that to get the line patterns I was looking for. I duplicated that openGL block group and reduced the mesh resolution so that it was a triangle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For the next two states, I added bangs to randomize the positions of the three initial shapes so that they would still show on screen. Then I added another set of randomization for the colors of all objects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
