User:Lbattich/canvas experiments
The idea is to create a webpage that would generate abstract images, inspired in the proun/suprematist works of El Lissitzky. such as this one:
The tests are pretty far from that goal yet, but hey, the goal is not quite the important here perhaps...
test 1
- Javascript section of the source code:
var x=document.getElementById("proun"); //declare global var x for canvas
var y1,y2,y3,x1,m1;
//var i=0;
var ctx=x.getContext("2d");
window.onload = function(){start();setInterval(function(){choose()},700)};
function start()
{
x.width=window.innerWidth-30;
x.height=window.innerHeight-30;
ctx.fillStyle=colourme()+"1)"; //first colour
ctx.fillRect(0,0,x.width,x.height);
ctx.fill();
four();
}
//choose btw different shapes
function choose() {
var numb=Math.floor(Math.random()*4);
if (numb==0){four()}
else if (numb==1){four()}
else if (numb==2){four()}
else if (numb==3){four()}
}
//functions:
//create a 4 sided shape:
function four()
