Instructions

Shift-Click on the green flag to run in Turbo mode and watch as the seven sprites, each dripping a different paint color, paint a Jackson Pollock style masterpiece.

Description

Jackson Pollock (1912-1956) American Abstract Artist Masterpiece: Blue Poles: Number 11 Pollack used a stick to drip different colors of house paint onto a large canvas laid out on the floor of his barn. Instead of discrete brush strokes, he laid paint onto a canvas in continuous trajectories of color. A random walk of this type is called Brownian motion and is a fractal In this Scratch project, 8 ants roam a rectangular "canvas", each leaving a different colored trail. Since each ant is performing a random walk, the colored trails overlap but the overall effect is generally pleasing to the eye. It takes time to create a work of art so be patient. Let the program run in the background while you think about your next Scratch project.
