Description

Building stuff is neat but breaking stuff is how you'll find a new path. A explorative study about finding new paths to make the good stuff.

I wanted to test out new ways to create artworks with nice palettes. I got this idea from a Joshua Davis(Praystation) talk about path finding. The idea behind this is to use png gradient as a colour scheme.

I created some simple random walker with some basic shapes from p5.js. Upon the creation of each walker, there is a condition with three outcomes. Each of the outcomes select one of the three swatches and map it to the height of the canvas. Every steps the walker takes, it changes it's colour according to where it's positioned on the swatch array.
