My idea was to have cards falling down, and when they fell to the ground, that they would lie down with alternating faces, therefore creating a pattern. I put them into slots (because they were physical, I could not lock them in the air), and removed the slots, so that they would fall.
Cards in place.
Cards fall (they fell off the platform and into the buildings below)
Second attempt
Can barely see the planks, but u can just make them out, they're overlapping each other. Didn't like this overlap, it felt too much like dominos falling on each other.
Tried to systematically put them geometrically (certain distance apart, angle etc), but it failed, and I wondered why it did that. I therefore looked at the slots, and realised they were uneven in height, I went back and re-did the card stands.
The result of having the slots uneven.
The uneven-ness of the stand.
The revised version, everything is the same height, and distance away.
I could not put the cards in the right angle with each other, even though the slots were even, and made precisely.
Cards still overlapped and was not parellel to each other.
Started looking at using cubes to make images instead.
Systematic placement.
When the support was removed, some of the cubes still froze in the air for some reason, the others just dropped straight down.
Tried stacking them in the air, and then letting them drop
Didn't really have the effect I liked.
Slanted tower of cubes.
Interesting how one of the cubes dropped further than the rest.
Placed cubes in a bowl.
When removed, they just scattered. Not dense enough to produce a picture.
84 cubes!
Mid air.
There seems to be a spiral happening, which I thought was interesting, but looking at the prim count, I decided that using less might be better.
