Processing Test

here is one of my first attempts at using the processing program

Final Algirithim

My final algirithim is as follows:

Algirithim:
Circle - 5cm diameter
move right 2.5cm
repeat x12


Repetition:
move down 5cm
repeat x6

Every second circle will be solid black and the transparency of the circles changes as it gets further across the page

Final Pattern

This is my final , I decided to make the pattern go from light to dark and transparent to non-transparent which I thought worked well. The algirithm for this design will be posted in the next post.

Initial Drawings

Here were some initial drawings I did just to find out what worked and what didn't. I found that circles, when they intersect create some amazing patterns within eachother. I will experiment with resizing, and making the circles transparent for my final one.

Initial inspiration

Here are some pictures I found on Google images that interested me, I looked at tesselating patterns and also designs made as a result of a spirograph which I thought looked amazing. My favourite picture is the second one because they used a series of circles that intersect to create a range of different shapes and that is something that I would like to try working with.
