Anagrams, all over
Updated

AnagramicViewScape
For this week's Creative Code Challenge by @sableraph: "As Above ,So Below”, AnagramicViewScape remixes code from P5JS, Python & SonicPi. It uses Anagrams that can be read from bottom to top or top to bottom as the placement of the words that have been anagrammatized are flipped. Determining what it is trying to say is part of the journey.
Poem
Top to Bottom
They read alike
Even though positions change
The words remain in range
As they have simply been arranged
Altering placements with time
Aligning with new columns
