# WCCChallenge_Floating

# FloatingGeometries

For this week's Creative Code Challenge by @sableraph : ***Floating,*** I Coded **Floating Geometries**

This week's languages are **LiveCodeLab** for the Visuals, **LivecodingYoutube** for the visual effects and **SonicPi** for the sound.

## Floating Process

* The floating shapes are done in **Livecodelab**
    
* There is another floating-based sketch that is not included in the code, which has floating pegs that are green-screened to show images from a countryside in Sierra Leone
    
* To keep the floating theme going, the code in **LiveCodeLab** contains no ints and only floats
    
* For the visualization of the sketch, **LiveCodingYoutube** used four videos to make the sketch have variance
    
* For sound, I reused a recently made SonicPi Composition: **YearlyRemix:**[https://blog.illestpreacha.com/minacoding2023yearlyremix](https://blog.illestpreacha.com/minacoding2023yearlyremix) (which was made for *MinaCoding2023 Prompt: Remix a Sketch from a Year Ago*)
    

## Poem

```ocaml
Float Floating
Floating to Soak
Soaking the rays of the skyline
Open to the days of the ride
As it floats to the edges of the bay
The bay that has never ending time
As it is line for the mind to scope
The geometries that float
Floating as they remain open
Till the day tells them to stop their play
```

## Code

### **LiveCodeLab**

```javascript
simpleGradient yellow,salmon,teal

if time % 20.0 > 6.0
	animationStyle motionBlur

if time % 30.0 > 15.0
	scale (sin(time) + (time % 13.0)/2.0 + 0.1)/4.0
	rotate sin(time),cos(time),sin(time % 6.0 + 1.0)
else
	scale Math.cbrt((sin(time) + (time % 13.0)/2.0 + 0.1)/4.0)
	rotate Math.sqrt((time),cos(time),sin(time % 6.0 + 1.0)),wave(0.03)

fill blue
	noStroke
	box 1.0 + sin(wave(0.3)),2.0 * wave(0.05), sin(wave(0.43))

move 1.0,Math.sqrt(time %7.0+2.0),1
	fill orange
	noStroke
	peg 1.0 + sin(wave(0.3)),2.0 * Math.cbrt(wave(0.05)), sin(wave(0.43))

move 2.0,1.0,Math.cbrt(time % 9.0 +1.0)
	fill white
	noStroke
	box 1.0 + sin(wave(0.3)),2.0 * wave(0.05), sin(wave(0.43))

move cos(time),2.0,wave(0.03)
	fill red
	stroke color(time % 10.0 * 25.0, sin(wave(0.003) * 50.0))
	ball 1.0 + sin(wave(0.3)),2.0 * wave(0.05), sin(wave(0.43))








```

### LiveCodingYoutube

```javascript
floatblue = "sUrgf2Z6Wv4"
floatraw = "ePuDpkrSB-c"
floatnoir = "Qs-GuVu7mFI"
floatobjects = "QoDcuPKzhm4"

create(3,3,floatblue)
cue([0,8],floatraw)
cue([2,6],floatnoir)
cue([1,7],floatobjects)

play(all)
speed([0,1,2],-1.5)
speed([3,4,5],2)
jump([3,5],10,10)
speed([6,7,8],-1.5)
```

### SonicPi
