scannin’ fodder

Following on from my previous poston slitscanning, I’ve been working on a Processing sketch to imitate the original slitscan technique, i.e. create a sequence of images from a static single original. I’ve never used images or video in Processing before, so it’s all new to me, and I’ve a way to go yet, but I’m getting there. So far, my sketch creates a new frame for each row of pixels in the original image, and adjusts each line in it with a flickering offset.

Here’s the output from the current version of the sketch:

… and here’s the original, rather cheesey image I used as a test source (taken from a website offering free desktop wallpapers):
