This sketch increases the randomness of an image along the Y axis.

I created this for the 19th day of Genuary which had a prompt of “Increase the randomness along the Y-axis.”

Remix Ideas

  • Apply this filter to different images.
  • Modify the getPixelRange() function to create different effects.
  • Instead of picking a random pixel, add randomness to the color of the pixel.
