This piece, presented in a web browser, shows two overlapping, colorful compositions of abstract vertical and horizontal stripes. The rendering is built with the vanilla JavaScript API for SVG, using programmatically created shapes. A white circle obscures the center of the vertical stripe pattern, while a separate set of horizontal stripes is clipped to a circular mask, creating the appearance of a layered, circular cutout. Each rectangle’s fill color is randomly generated, producing a dynamic, multicolored grid.

AI-generated description

Inspiration from Curran's live streaming

Started from scratch. Lot of research helps.

Exercise options:

Reproduce any Sol LeWitt piece.

Create generative art in the spirit of Sol LeWitt.

Add animation to what we’ve created (e.g. rotation).

Fork of Fork of Episode 3: Sol LeWitt in Vanilla JavaScript version 2

This example generates a colorful, generative art piece inspired by Sol LeWitt, built entirely with vanilla JavaScript and the SVG API. It renders a full-screen grid of randomly colored vertical rectangles, then overlays a large white circle in the center. A second grid of horizontal rectangles is clipped to that same circular shape using an SVG `<mask>`, creating a layered, intersecting pattern. All shapes are created dynamically via `document.createElementNS`, with colors assigned through randomized RGB values.

Fork of Episode 3: Sol LeWitt in Vanilla JavaScript version 2

This visualization shows a grid of vertical, randomly colored rectangles overlaid with a large white circle in the center. A second grid of horizontal rectangles is masked to appear only inside that central circular region. The piece is built by constructing SVG elements directly, including both vertical and horizontal rectangles, and using a mask with a circle to clip the horizontal grid to the circular area. The code uses the Document API to create SVG elements and applies inline styles for fill colors and geometry.

Fork of (2) Episode 3: Sol LeWitt in Vanilla JS - Vertical Variant

This example reproduces a Sol LeWitt wall drawing using two circular SVG masks to create an interplay of horizontal and vertical black lines. One mask reveals horizontal stripes inside a centered circle, while a second, inverted mask exposes vertical stripes outside that same circle. The artwork is generated entirely with vanilla JavaScript, creating over 200 SVG `rect` elements at fixed intervals, without any external libraries. The page fills the browser window, and the geometric composition is built purely from procedural code.

Fork of Episode 3: Sol LeWitt in Vanilla JavaScript version 3

This piece generates an abstract, animated composition inspired by Sol LeWitt’s geometric wall drawings. A grid of 200 vertical rectangles, each filled with a random bright RGB color, extends across the full window height, with each rectangle independently bobbing upward in a looping translateY animation. Centered in the viewport, a white circle is drawn, and a separate mask (defined via SVG `mask` and `defs`) is applied to a grid of horizontal rectangles, so that only the circular area reveals the second set of stripes. The sketch uses only vanilla JavaScript and the SVG DOM API, without any external libraries, to assemble and animate the shapes.

Fork of Episode 3: Sol LeWitt in Vanilla JavaScript version 3

This example generates an animated Sol LeWitt-inspired composition using SVG and the Web Animations API. Two overlapping visual layers are present: a grid of tall, vertically oriented rectangles with random colors and upward-floating motion, and a second grid of horizontal rectangles clipped by a circular mask. A white circle is drawn at the center to overlap the first grid. The piece combines generative randomness in color and animation timing with geometric order, rendering entirely in vanilla JavaScript without external libraries.

Fork of Episode 3: Sol LeWitt in Vanilla JavaScript version 3

A grid of 200 vertical rectangles fills the screen, each with a random fill color and an independent CSS animation that translates it upward, creating a shifting, colorful backdrop. A circular mask clips a second set of horizontal rectangles to a white circle centered in the viewport. The piece uses plain JavaScript with the SVG DOM API and the Web Animations API (`element.animate`) for motion, inspired by Sol LeWitt’s generative geometric forms.

Fork of Episode 3: Sol LeWitt in Vanilla JavaScript version 3 Nita's Piece

This piece generates an abstract animated composition in the spirit of Sol LeWitt using vanilla JavaScript and the SVG API. A vertical grid of 200 randomly colored rectangles spans the full window height and animates upward infinitely with randomized durations. A large white circle is drawn over the center of these moving bars. A second horizontal grid of rectangles is then rendered across the entire canvas, but it is clipped by a mask defined with a circle element, revealing a circular window that shows the white shape and the animated color field below.
