What is it?

Made using ChucK and OpenGl, flatland is an exploration of the dimensions through color, sound, and space. It is a 5 minute piece that is interactive in its designed story.

The Process

Starting with zero knowledge of ChucK or OpenGl, this project had many large hurdles to overcome such as creating and visualizing a fourier transform and simply rotating the camera in OpenGl.

However, most time was spent on the details, on realizing what to cut and how to make the smallest and simplest of elements, like the cube, shine.
