Can Colors Change With Time

magoo

Hey, I am relatively new to code and Processing, but think it might work well for a project I am working on. I am wondering if it would be possible to make an image's tones change based on the changing time, and then have this displayed constantly. I don't need a specific how to, I just want to know if this would be possible and then I would try to learn how to do it myself. Thanks for the help!

@magoo --

Yes, it is possible!

In the reference, start trying the examples for:

• image() to show an image
• tint() to change image color
• second() and millis() to do thing based on the clock time or the running duration.

Combine these and you are on your way to making your sketch idea.

Also, depending on if you want colors to change in a circular / cyclical fashion, also check out HSB colorMode instead of RGB -- varing the hue can then be done in a continuous loop.
