This weeks tasks were all about color and how we can use Processing to work with them.

Confetti

This applet generates random circles with random colors and their opacity (alpha) is determined by the vertical mouse position.

Aufgabe 1 - Confetti

The applet can be viewed here. Move your mouse cursor up and down and watch what happens!

Digital pipette

This application is and does nothing more, what a conventional color picker does: It gets the exact color of the pixel on which it is clicked on. The upper right color box is the acutal clicked pixel color, the second one is the color of the previous pixel.

Aufgabe 2 - Color Picker

Try it out here, by clicking into the picture.

Color wheel

This displays all colors with their respective complementary color.

Aufgabe 3 - Color wheel

You can view the wheel in this applet.

Pop-Art

The typical Andy Warhol picture effect. One color is generated randomly and the second one is the respective complementary color.

Aufgabe 4 - Popart

The applet can be tried out here.
