Race Tracks

Hello, motorsports fans! Who has a favorite racetrack? Across the world, hundreds of motorsports races occur on a wide variety of tracks with different shapes, turns, and spectator layouts. When viewed from above, each track is a piece of artwork in itself. How would you like to have a map of your own unique race track?

Race Tracks outputs randomly generated abstract representations of race tracks that mimic the characteristics of real-world motorsports venues, including the main track, pit lane, smaller race tracks within the main track interior, grandstands for spectators, parking lots, and additional roads to connect them all (with traffic circles). All of these features are sure to generate a trace track that you'll love.

A few notes about the functionality of this project:

• This artwork was developed using the p5.js library.

• The artwork is scalable across many different sizes of canvas. In addition to scaling upon window resize, different scales can be applied through key stroke inputs:

  • 1: scales the artwork to the window height.

  • 2: scales the artwork to 2000 x 2000 pixels.

  • 3: scales the artwork to 3000 x 3000 pixels.

  • 4: scales the artwork to 4000 x 4000 pixels.

  • 5: scales the artwork to 5000 x 5000 pixels.

  • NOTE: Larger images will take longer to load, so please be patient :)

• In addition to key strokes that scale the artwork, pressing the "s" key will save the artwork locally.

• In addition to a variety of pre-selected color sets, there is also a chance to get a completely randomly generated color set!

For those who want to “officially own” one of these on the block chain, you can mint one on fx(hash) here.
