SpaceFulCubes

For this week's Creative Code challenge by @sableRaph: “Cubes“, SpaceFulCubes is coded with LiveCodeLab, HydraVIdeoSynth, Python & SonicPi. Where a realm of cubes is being examined. Also the Poetry is written in a poetic form called a “TriCube”

Poem

Spaceful Paths
Overlaid
Through Orbits

No Limits
More Upgrades
Infused Maths

Insert Space
Pace & Place,
Cubic Race
