The prompt for Genuary 2023 Day 11 is
Suprematism
For Today's prompt, I am following the following information about Suprematism :
"Suprematist art would lead to the "supremacy of pure feeling or perception in the pictorial arts"
"Suprematism focused on the application of elementary geometric forms such as the square, the cross, and the circle. Suprematists also explored the idea of non-Euclidean geometry; that being a practice that “defied logic” by giving the illusion of fixed geometric forms floating or moving in space. The movement’s simplification of form and color proved influential, especially through the efforts of Malevich’s famous understudy El Lissitzky, in the development of later avant-gardes including the Constructivist, Bauhaus, and De Stijl schools. " -https://www.theartstory.org/movement/suprematism/#:~:text=Summary%20of%20Suprematism&text=Its%20name%20related%20to%20Malevich%27s,that%20were%20connected%20to%20storytelling.
Also will be paying hommage to the Black Square piece - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_Square_(painting)
Today's post will follow squares coded in LiveCodeLab as they represent the feelings of the particles and pixels. Audio takes in SonicPi code from the Generative Music prompt with some minor tweaks
The square isn’t getting warmer
But it still intact with its corners
With angles still equal
Even if it is in the sequel
Or their origins are seen in the prequel
The corners remain
As the squares rotate in their lanes
