Art 399 - Project 2

This project builds off of the sketcher template. It takes input for color (using the swatch command) and changes the turtle to that color. It also takes input for shape via a slider (using the slider command), which applies a specific shape at the point of the turtle.

The swatch goes through a gcolor message with three variables for red, green and blue.

The slider gets piped into a patcher named ‘shape-chooser’. The shape-chooser displays the int given by the slider, selects that int, then applies a shape ranging from circle, to framecircle, to cube. The command then gets sent back to the main patch using the s command.

The camera follows the turtle using the pak lookat function.

I also made the turtle travel in the x, y, and z axis by changing the parameters in the random mode window.

You will find the patch here:
