Initially I thought it would a good idea to Processing to generate shapes, considering it would be appropriate to have visuals generated from coding and numbers. It's become pretty apparent that - although throughout this project and afterwards I want to continue learning how to use this scripting language - its unlikely I can generate a books worth of content using this software, there's still a lot I have to learn about it. I would like to spend time documenting what I learn within the constraints of this project. The reason it's appropriate is it connects with the idea of collected data (the source code) as a visual form, and the point of visuals - engaging with a target audience. What's good is that I'm exploring geometric shapes which is a nice way to start generating imagery. I know the image above doesn't look like much, but by merely generating it I understand elements of the coding data a lot better, to a point that I can even start experimenting a tiny bit.
