ChaoticButTouchless

For this week's Creative Code Challenge by @sableraph : Don't Touch, I decided to have a chaotic amount of moving avatars but they don't touch each other.

This week's coding languages are Locomotion, LiveCodingYoutube, Hydra, Python, and SonicPi

The movement of the avatars is done by Locomotion and to avoid them from touching, I put extra emphasis on making sure the Z coordinates of the avatars aren't close. While making sure there is a movement across the screen amongst the three axes by the oscillation of their trajectories
Hydra is used to modulate and add the wavy effect seen on the screen and play with the scaling and perception.
Then using Python & LiveCodingYoutube to add extra effects to the scenes. Then later proceeding to have a Day/Night Mode
The sound design principles involved in the SonicPi code, fit the visuals

Poem

Chaotic but movements flowing like aquatics
With oscillation oscillating 
Between megascopic and microscopic
While retaining between melodic
As the equations stay operating
Relating as they don’t touch and mingle
But their emotions still remain kindle
Doesn’t dwindle
As their movements are rhythmic
Even if it seems a bit chaotic
