“The…” – SpongeBob SquarePants
For Banking Hall we got to use plotters to create artwork using p5js. I was a bit worried as I’ve never coded in p5 before, but I paired up with my classmate Ava and she showed me the basics. We ended up reusing some of her code from last year to make a halftone effect with the plotter.
Banking Hall was fun, it was a lot better than what I did in the games course the past 2 years. I think making the even graded is what cam make it unenjoyable, the pressure to make something good in such a short amount of time while having other projects as well can be very overwhelming.
I used the rest of the week to work on my essay, I’ve finished 2 out of the 3 sections which equates to roughly 2,000 words. I’ve found it much easier to write about the capture card than the upscaler, which surprised me as I assumed it would be the opposite. Though the upscaler is much more technically advanced, because it’s a very good product it’s hard to find any critical reviews on it, whereas the capture card is simpler but the reception of it is mixed so I have a lot more material to work with.
I am going to take a break from writing it and plan to talk to Jamie again next Wednesday, I am doubting whether or not I’ve been analytical enough.
