Poi Random Generator

Here's a clip from a program I wrote that generates random CAP/flower type patterns. It'll keep going and going, randomising the parameters at semi-random time intervals. With just a basic set of input, it can do all the basic flowers, cat-eyes, isolations.

m file now here:

Would anyone fancy translating it into processing.js for me?

Is possible to make an .exe for run this itself?

[dannydeviltube]

@ngst74 I don't know how, but I will look into it...

Or if anyone has matlab and knows how to create an .exe from a .m, please get in touch...

@dannydeviltube Wait a minute this is in matlab? Can I get the .m file? I'd love to check out the code. =D

[dannydeviltube]

@bjrcboy yes, in matlab... m file now on internet (see info section). good luck!

Awesome program! It's really nice to see the polyrythms of 3 and 4/petal antispin flowers. It's hard getting the spin points and the speed right. It's also a great idea to have it go semi/random since it will do stuff we might not have thought of otherwise.

so is this gen for sale?, i would love to stare at this thing at work for a wile. could u make it a screen saver

[Mireneye]

I would love to have this basically as my screensaver =) (the random gen that is, not the video).

Grand work!

this thing is insane

i wish i was as good as the computer...lol

Dude, this is nuts. It's working on polyrhythmic butterfly flowers and what not. It's going to be fun to figure out, but I feel like having a computer generate things for us to figure out takes the fun out of sitting around and discussing technicalities and breaking new ground with other spinners. Cool stuff regardless! :P

And as for more, I might post another video soon, I've updated the algorithm a little. But hopefully I'll be able to translate it into something web friendly, so you can see the generator at work! It does some funky stuff.
