Hype – play, experiment and win
At Halloween Joshua Davis and Branden Hall published a Framework for Generative Design called HYPE. Soon after they started a contest to encourage people to start playing with it.
Already before this contest was announced I had of course grabbed a copy and started to play with it. First I tried and compared it to my diploma project Coded Beauty which finally led me to writing my first extension for HYPE:
SpiralLayout
It is a SpiralLayout and does exactly what it says – like the GridLayout arranges stuff in a grid, this arranges your stuff in Spirals. You can choose whether it’s an archimedean or a logarithmic spiral and specify a couple of other parameters. To cut a long story short here you can see the final output.
After the contest ends I will also put the Source and some examples online. Have fun!
