For this moving work of art, I was inspired by Kathryn Shagas, who paints abstract works of art based on rhythms. She has a polyrhythm series, and inspired by that I made my own polyrhythm work of art. The top dot makes a snapping noise 5 times over the course of 5 seconds. The bottom dot pops once every 1.6 seconds. This creates a 5/3 polyrhythm. Accompanying each sound is a color change to help visualize the rhythm. The space between the beats and colors can be changed using the blank boxes. However, there is not a way to change the number of snaps for either sprite.
