My twitterbot samples the local wind speed and direction, then uses that information to “blow” on some colored balls in a box. If the wind is coming from the south, the balls will be blown up to the north, and vice versa. The stronger the wind is, the more the balls will be blown from their randomly generated state of repose.

The project uses a Processing sketch to fetch the weather data, generate the image, and upload to Twitter via a Temboo choreo. Source available on Github.
