Collaborative Drawing
About
In this lecture we will draw curves using everything from paper to online tools.
Goals
- Learn about algorithms
- Learn about constraints
- Design your own algorithm
Sol Lewitt
Sol Lewitt's Walldrawing from the Do It Exhibition (2001):
- A black not straight line is drawn at approximately the center of the wall horizontally from side to side.
- Alternate red, yellow and blue lines are drawn above and below the black line to the top and bottom of the wall
