I’m working to create a section of my site for interactive applets, but in the meantime i have also gotten a vimeo account to post videos of what I’m working on, especially my work with processing. There’s not much there yet, but I’ll be putting things up as i go.
This video was created with Processing and the OpenGL 3d graphics library. I created an object which renders a 3d ring of the alphabet. Each ring has a parameter to indicate which letter it should be displaying, which rotates forward and darkens. Another set of functions interpretes a set of strings at the beginning of the program to create the dials and an array of positions for each. On a command all the dials are switched to their next position.
