Brainstorming.........

To begin I looked at the three different codes I have found and asked what is it about the actual image that i can relate to the metaphor of if/else statements and for each I came up with three ideas.........
For the abstract clock code I liked the idea that time created the action....... because it was this time an action occurred so as a result I found images that I believed related.....

I found these images of hour glasses lined up in a row......... if I were to choose this idea I would have three hourglasses lined up...... one would count minutes, another second and the last an hour this would work as a metaphor to show the if statements because it would show the relation between time and the action of the hourglass.

I found these images because I believed it could be the most straight forward metaphor....... a clock if a minute passes the minute hand will move........

I found these images of the bird drinking water..... there is something about the repetitive nature that the bird has that I relate to time and I thought this had potential for a design that would communicate the metaphor of an if/else statement...

The next images I found in relation to flesh light code.....with this code I liked the relation of colour and movement in relation to the if/else statement....

This is an image of a lava lamp...... I think aesthetically this image is very similar to the code however if I were to carry through with this idea I would make it more interactive eg. a person can shake the jar to make the parts move 

This is an image of burning metal it causes great sparks of light and movement which relates the if else statement very well..... if I were to carry this idea I would make it a multi media design combination of a still with moving images shot onto it..

The last idea is using light to write in the dark I think it also shows how light and movement can show a reaction...... I would make this an interactive think perhaps using a black box and writing with glow in the dark ink like you can get with glowsticks............

The next lot of images relate to the gravity pulsar again I believe the colour and movement help relate the the if/else statement......   

The first idea is quite simple using a colour wheel to combine primary colours to create secondary colours possibly even tertiary colours....... using the simple idea of mixing colours and using movement.....

The next idea is related to watercolour and water & colour..... it will show the interaction between water and added colours using the idea of fluidity.... If I were to carry out this idea I would use mix media of a video being projected on still images.....

The last idea and possibly my favourite idea is the use of a gobo and lighting....... so there is normal light but when a template is added a pattern or colour will show if another pattern or colour is added then another thing will show...... I think this would be the perfect metaphor for what if/else statements are.... simple idea and interactive....
