Draw crazy moving patterns
February 7th, 2008
I love this type of pointless interaction that is so engaging and can keep you entertained for ages; I spent at least 10 mins drawing lines with this app.
Basically Yellowtail by Golan Levin is a program that animates and repeats backwards whatever you draw with your mouse, the site describes it as:
Yellowtail is an interactive software system for the gestural creation and performance of real-time abstract animation. Yellowtail repeats a user’s strokes end-over-end, enabling simultaneous specification of a line’s shape and quality of movement. Each line repeats according to its own period, producing an ever-changing and responsive display of lively, worm-like textures.
If you like this type of thing have a look at some of the other interactive applets on the site and spend even more time moving your mouse around the screen for your own enjoyment.
