Description

Barnyard Algorithm uses visual interpretations of programming concepts to comment on human technologies.
from the project description on Born Magazine:
Processing ...
When I create script for animation, I often visualize the processes taking place within the program. What does a busy function look like? How would an array appear as it gets pushed and popped? This is my human response to an invisible digital process.
Of course invisible processes surround us all the time, including some we'd rather not think about.
Here, then, is a process visualization combined with one of our earliest technologies; domesticated animals.
At the end you'll have a little jewel - a computer-ready personna made from hoof and hide.
