Hey there! I hope you are doing good!

This week, we’ll dive into randomness, which is another very fun and enlightening way of working creatively with code. This week we’ll explore how to use random parameters to distribute geometric shapes on your sketch window. That may feel trivial in the beginning, but what you actually do is opening the Pandora’s box of generative design: You specify a specific field in which the computer takes over the control and make own decisions. based on simple random numbers.

Exercise

Create three different systems that generate a uniquely styled random composition. Post five to eight of the renderings of each system to the Discord channel.

Enjoy and good luck!
