Giacomo Balla
"Study for Compenetrazione iridescente" (Iridescent interpritation)
1912
I chose this piece because I found it really interesting to look at but I figured that it would be simple enough to be able to draw out myself after a few hours of trying to do a more complicated piece and getting no where. I really enjoyed the artist's use of water colors to paint the piece and I wanted to try and manipulate that texture somehow through Processing.
In order to "update" the piece, I used the mousePressed and mouseMoved system variables to alter the color of some of the blocks present in the piece.
This video shows my piece and what happens when you click on it and move the cursor around the screen. I decided to only manipulate the color in a few of the boxes because I though it looked more interesting maintaining the majority of the original coloration of the piece.
I thought this project was a lot of fun but it took me a lot of time and effort to come up with what I have. I ended up drawing out the coordinates for every box you see and filling them with the corresponding color, then putting a grayscale image of water color paint over the top of the whole thing to make it look hand painted.
