== Homework 4 ==
== Homework 4 - Geks Logogram Writing System ==
This font is called 'Geks' and is a primative writing system was inspired by [http://www.omniglot.com/writing/mayan.htm Mayan logograms]. There are two processing files. The first simply displays a list of the logograms loaded from SVGs with their meanings or context in which the logograms can be used. The second is a mash-up between the RiTa haiku generator and the Geks.
 
I chose to use SVGs as I did not have time to hand-code all of the necessary shapes for the logograms.
 
Things I would do differently:
I would try to use different methods to actually convert my logograms into a usable font. PShapes were attempted in this project, but would not look as I had originally desired, so SVGs were chosen instead.
Order the logograms correctly on the output of the haiku. They currently load randomly, which is not the desired result.
