Pretty - Clever

Posted by Chris in Internet

This is rather nice, and a creative way to waste a few minutes: Isotope

Isotope

 

Simply hit the + or - sign to change the number of arms. Drag to create different lengths between them and to alter the speed, and hit play. That’s my creation above.

    This is cool. Thank you for sharing it. I think I’ll do this when my head doesn’t hurt so much.

    Thanks Sunflower :-)

    Cheers Rose, it’s good fun to play with.

    Bee, I agree it’s not the most intuitive thing in the world-clever though.

    It’s a Spirograph! I had one as a kid. With gears and a pen, though. OK, a stylus and clay. That we had to bake afterward.

    But you get the idea.

    That’s beautiful Asara! It’s a shame you can’t remove the arms from them (least I don’t think you can?)

    Thank you! :)
    I wish I could get the arms out of it, but the only way I can think of to do it would be to just fill them in with black, and that probably wouldn’t look much better. Oh well, it was still fun! :)
