Raging Bull v1.0 – Project Description

See the interaction here:Raging Bull v1.0

> > > “To tame a raging bull with an infinite field.”

***Update 30 Sep 20: the interaction is buggy on mobile versions of Safari and Chrome: tapping on the circle doesn’t do anything, when it should turn black and agitated. Mobile Firefox works well, as do desktop versions of said browsers.***

Inspired by the above Zen saying, I created this little toy interaction with p5JS. Instead of a raging bull, you get an agitated black circle: the more you click and move the mouse around, the more the circle stays black and agitated!

But if you let things be, gradually, the circle will calm down and brighten up.

Just like your own mind. 🙂

Future versions of this will probably involve a bull animation.

This was coded in about two hours on p5JS web editor, using the “How to design world programs” recipe from the book How to Design Programs as a guide. (You can probably see the draft code in my code comments)
