Week 4 - Art ideas!
In our last lecture we discussed types of artworks you can create using basic html code. As our first assessment piece is to make our own basic artwork, I jumped on and had a look at the sites which were emailed to us.
I hated Asci art – www.asci-art.de/asci/my/. Why? Well it’s just not my thing and I don’t really classify it as ‘art’, but that’s just my opinion. In addition I didn’t really like the abstract art (the page layout look a-likes) either. So with my firm appreciation for web art – I now have to try and develop my own…..this could be interesting.
However, I did like the concept of developing an abstract piece using different shapes/colours etc – perhaps something along the lines of what donrelyea.com had – but of course ‘different’ from that.
I started to do a bit of research to gather ideas and stubbled across a site www.dhteumeulea.com which had a lot of interesting content – links to other web artist (Jason you were at the top of the Links list). Browsing through these different sites, it was really interesting to see how some people have developed their art.
I saved a few of the pics to play around with changing the code to see what parts changed, and to get familiar with all this code jargon.
