SpookyForest

For this week's Creative Code Challenge by @sableraph: "Spooky", SpookyForest is Coded in Locomotion, Hydra & SonicPi. In A Forest, where the gaze changes

Eerie Process

  • The sounds are coded from three SonicPi compositions, which are then remixed through some filters to expand on the spooky/eerie feeling

  • Hydra is used to add a glitchy the screen alongside the 360 view

  • The 3D Models, Scene, Physic and Colors are coded in Locomotion to provide an eerie background

Poem

Eeriness
Spookiness
For the Forest is all
For when you gaze, it shall call

Eeriness
Spookiness
The Forest watches
For its essence arrives in batches

Eeriness
Spookiness
The Forest
is?
