Steps
in Illustrating Haiku: My original plan for computer-illustrating Haiku
involved generating sets of large, medium and small shapes and placing them
roughly in Golden section positions
as the computer was generating the three lines of clean energy haiku.
The
large and medium shapes could be geometric or organic and the
small shapes would be in ‘groups’ which could be anything from spatters to
groups of people.
Three colours (triad, analogous or split
complimentary) would be applied.
When the haiku was printed and the basic
diagram is in place, the computer would allow the user the option to adjust the
whole picture - shift wavelengths, rotate, mirror, adjust individual shapes -
duplicate, change brightness and intensity, expand or contract. Then it would
present the option of automatic or manual contour drawing and edge effects.
This computerpainting, 'An inspirational ‘how to invent stuff’
non sequitur' is one of many possible abstract haiku illustrations that could
result from this procedure… interesting, but not as inspiring a ‘launching’
point for a quantum leap as I’d thought it might be… Plan B coming soon.
