// Ideation
I created this pattern in Illustrator as a starting point for the design choice. I wanted it to spin representing the second change. By creating the seconds representation as a function and call it in the draw container, I started with the idea of having it spin in the middle of the screen. Yet, After I made the design, I changed the idea to have a for loop looping the function to create equal the seconds representation fill out the screen in a 3x3 grid. This idea is to show a topographical difference of how each seconds is taking individual seconds are happening
//Process
I started with coding the seconds into functionvideo 5.1 starting with seconds
Then instead of making only 1, I created a for loop for this:
video 5.2 seconds
Then instead of making only 1, I created a for loop for this:
video 5.2 seconds
I then played with the gradient and start building the minute using a solid arc with fill.
Also added text to indicate it is a clock for I doubt the information delivery’s sufficiency.
Also got some problems when writing the hours function due to rotation and translation. Yet finally got it right via using push and pop.
![]()
1. What is the difference between creating functions and creating arrays? Can we think of it like this: function are verbs while arrays are nouns?
