London Hypotrochoid
A city of the mind–your mind. London Hypotrochoid does a Google image search of “London” and downloads 100 images larger than 800×600. And proceeds to paint the town. Or parts thereof.
If you use a Mac, you need to use Firefox for London Hypotrochoid. Requires the Shockwave plugin from http://vispo.com/sw . Best viewed as big as you know how to make your browser.
Click it when it seems to be finished. Usually clicking changes the nib and path of the brush (randomly). Sometimes it adds another brush or deletes a brush, if there are two. Occassionally the mouse controls the brush. Usually it clears the screen when you click; sometimes it changes brush type.
All the best for the new year. 2010 past a space odyssey. But still not down to earth.

This is great work, Jim, as always. (Have you tried putting audio as an accompaniment with this latest series?)
Thanks, Alan. The only audio in dbCinema, currently, is a bit of text-to-speech. dbCinema was originally conceived as the visual engine for my interactive audio. But it’s kind of grown into its own thing.
Here’s the early notion for dbCinema: http://vispo.com/bc/qt . This video talks about dbCinema in the second half.
The Jig-Sound project, by the way, which is discussed in the video, is at http://vispo.com/jig
Thanks, Jim….
