Attached several randomized outputs from routes I drew

Project Description

I want to emphasize on the dimension adaptability from an interactive avenue with this project. The canvas starts as a literal canvas where a curve or a little doodle can be drawn on. This improv route of line will be interpreted as many bezier curves proportional to the canvas, and eventually transcribed into randomized dimensions of canvases. "Jalan, jalan!” means taking a walk in Indonesian. I like the doubling of ‘Jalan,’ and the linguistic evolution of it from the path to take a walk on the path. It sounds crips and cheery, and I want the illustration of this text to match such. The starting anchor point and the ending anchor point dictate the directionality of the text, while the changing points along the curve could mirror the haphazard nature of a walk we take. Cuz often times, it doesn’t really matter where the walk goes, but the rugged track of passage itself. What’s seen along the way is as much as an variable as the route itself, yet the walk we take holds something a little more permanent.

bezierPoint() reference of P5.js
I used Claud for several functions:
interactive Bezier curve editor that gives me the control points as I played with the curve / the rotation of the text relative to the anchor points of the curve drawn / the GUI that synthesizes the hand drawn curve into numerous belzier curve coordinates that maps into the newer canvases with proportional layouts
