Hi and welcome to wordweaver. This is a mini project using HTML, CSS, and p5.js to create patterns sort of similar to
elmentary cellular automata. It will convert your text input to color by partitioning the
character data. After the first "strip", it'll apply an iterative rule to your pattern based on the selection parameter you have set.
You can change the selected rule to mix and match the patterns at a line-by-line basis to create more complex combinations.
Note that colors and starter text will only change if you reload the webpage.
Furthermore, please note that the text input relies on UTF-16, and the script runs clientside. It's seriously unlikely for anything bad to happen if you put a ton of characters in or weird symbols, but do consider yourself warned. Will use only the first 15 chracters!
Settings:
Since the actual colors displayed are arbitrary, there's no reason why you can't customize them to your liking!
Each value is a multiplier to the character code. An even distribution will make colors random, a tight distribution will make colors similar, and a skewed distribution will create a color schema.
Don't be afraid to experiment with different spacings and value sizes!
