lets take what we have learned...

Now lets apply that knowledge to the record player and also spin the graphics on the label using a push matrix, and individually created draw functions, which allows us to set a rotation point rather than the images spinning on their centre points.

PI PI PI Delilah

I mentioned before how I wanted to make my record player spin and this would involve rotating arcs will I didnt know much about PI calculations, but I found the radians conversion code and this was a big help and allowed me to convert to degrees and back again. Here are 2 practice spinning arcs one that just spins and the other looks like its drawing a circle.

Week 3 Variables

Already came across the wonderful world of variables whilst creating previous sketches. But thats the name of the topic this week. They allow you to create interesting animated sketches. First up the balls example from last week moving of its own accord. added a trail by overlaying a square with an alpha value of 25 each time the draw function loops, creates a nice effect.
