Project 2, Transform Final

For my final development I made the interaction more user friendly. Instead of one spot that lights up the page when the mouse moves over it there are now three. Each spot has a different sound and colour combination. I also made it more obvious where the mouse is on the page so that the user has a better idea of what they are doing. However, it is still a bit of a challenge to figure out how the application works so that it holds the users interest.

- you need to click on the sketch to start the interaction, after, it is simply just moving the mouse around the sketch to get the sounds to play


The over all aim of my sketch is to use the idea of water falling down, and turn it into something abstract that combines mouse interaction, sounds and visuals while conveying some form of transformation. The bold piano notes are emphasized by the dark blue lines  and the location of the mouse is represented by a very subtle black circle, so that it doesn't detract from the visuals and makes it interesting as it is not completely obvious how the sketch works. The red-purple colour that the lines light up to contrast and complement the dark blue, as well as change intensity depending on where the mouse is on the page, adding to the aesthetics. The over all sound and visual relationship is in accordance to where the mouse is on the sketch, the aim being to find the different sound combinations and where to move the mouse in order to light up the whole sketch.
