Hello Friends.

“Mechanical Garden after Tytus Czyżewski” is an interactive miniature based on the classic “visual poetry” artwork, re-created in a contemporary medium (p5js). The work touch issues of conditional arts, synthetic nature and the relation of art, nature and technology in general. Originally (in 2011), I wrote it in Processing, but later I decided to convert the code to p5js.

The work (+ source) is available here: [https://www.tetoki.eu/ogrodmechaniczny.html](https://www.tetoki.eu/ogrodmechaniczny.html) - as it’s using webcam it will be good to have a one ;-).

For motion detection project uses the Vida library, which I announced some time ago on this forum - not sure if with any feedback, but, anyway, Vida is available here: [https://tetoki.eu/vida](https://tetoki.eu/vida)

I hope you like it.
