  1. The artwork is square.
  2. The artwork consists of many short black lines, on a white background.
  3. The lines all have the same length.
  4. Overall there seems to be a general direction, horizontal or vertical, that all the lines follow (noise exists obviously)
  5. However each line by itself seems to have a somewhat random direction that it points to
  6. every line overlaps with the previous line at the half-point mark
  7. There are empty holes in the piece, where there are no lines
  8. The empty spots where lines are skipped are clustered together
  9. The exact positions of the holes seem random
  10. The size of the holes are also random

I personally think the result is pretty satisfactory especially given the fact that I was able to really get a good understanding of what noise is and how to use it through the completion of this project. I started by creating an invisible grid system where each of the grid contains a simple straight line. Then I randomly rotate each lines separately using translate and push and pop. Lastly, to create the holes I had to understand noise which I found very challenging at first. Partly because the documentation on the p5.js site were not super great at explaining the concept in plain, understandable language. However, after learning it I realized how adaptive noise can be, and I can already see how it can be used in many other cases.
