WindyHeadstands

The prompt for Genuary 2025 Day 5 is “Isometric” , Day 8 is “ Draw A million” ,Day 15 is “Rug” & Day 18 is “Windy”

WindyHeadstands uses coded choreography in Locomotion to have the avatars perform a series of headstands. Headstands can be considered “Isometric” holds. To achieve the background of a rug that is flying in the wind, The 3D mode of Barbara was used. Finishing off with 1 million instances of the rug through Hydra’s repeat() function (1000 × 1000)

Poem

Headstanding During a Windy Day
Headstanding is the way they desire to stay
Headstanding is how they emit, their will to play
Headstanding is their desired play
