# WCCChallenge_Falling

# FallingInLayers

For this week's Creative Code Challenge by @sableraph : "***Falling",***  We entered a glitched fall that occurred during the gameplay of **Descenders**. Languages this week are **Hydra, Locomotion & SonicPi**

## **Falling Procedure**

* In this Sketch, **Hydra** is responsible for the glitched versions and the layering of the same footage of the fall during Descenders.
    
    * While falling in the various realms, raccoons seem to be falling on the screen. This is courtesy of **Locomotion.**
        
    * There are several snippets of similar but yet different layers of **Hydra** code
        
    * The audio coded by **SonicPi**, is a representation of the journey that is **FallingInLayers.** Two of the Audio pieces come from a mixture and remixed of previous submissions: [https://blog.illestpreacha.com/wccchallenge-phages](https://blog.illestpreacha.com/wccchallenge-phages) & [https://blog.illestpreacha.com/wccchallengecirclecreations](https://blog.illestpreacha.com/wccchallengecirclecreations)
        

## Poem

```ocaml
Falling in Style
Stylish in the wild
Where Even the Raccoons
Are Falling in line with the Moon
as The Sun rises with its Touching
as Those Who Have fallen are Bunched in
as They Have Fallen in Style
and It Has Been Awhile
```

## Code

### Hydra

#### Descenders Modification

```javascript
//Glitchified screen

s0.initScreen()

src(s0).scale(0.88).repeat(2).kaleid(2).diff(s0).out()
```

```javascript
//Less Glictified Screen

s0.initScreen()

src(s0).scale(0.88).diff(s0).out()
```

```javascript
//Layered Background
s0.initScreen()

src(s0).scale(0.88).blend(s0).blend(src(s0).scale(0.75)).
blend(src(s0).scale(1.25)).out()
```

```javascript
//Layered Grid Background

s0.initScreen()

src(s0).scale(0.88).blend(s0).blend(src(s0).scale(0.75)).
diff(src(s0).scale(0.25)).add(src(s0).scale(2)).out()
```

### Hydra

#### LocomotionRemake

```javascript
s0.initScreen()
src(s0).repeat(4).modulateRotate(s0,0.5).modulateKaleid(s0,0.25).
blend(src(s0).scale([0.5,1,2,0.75,1.5,3,4]).colorama(0.5).
scrollX([0.5,-0.5,0.5])).diff(src(s0).rotate(()=> Math.cbrt(time))).
diff(src(s0).pixelate(1000)).out()
```

### Locomotion

```haskell

--racoon
dancer{ url = "raccoon.glb",size = 1, animation = 2, dur = 2, z = range 4 - 4 (osc 3), x = -2, y = range 10 -10 (osc 0.5),rx = 360, x = osc 0.5,lz = range 10 -10 (osc 0.5) };

dancer{ url = "raccoon.glb",size = 1, animation = 3, dur = 2, z = range 5 - 10 (osc 3), x = -2, y = range 14 -14 (osc 0.5),rx = 360, x = range 4-4 (osc 0.5),lz = range 10 -10 (osc 0.5) };

  #to 1 ratio but with a dice randomizer

  #That can be seen with in the Spread function that uses Euclidean
