Overview
Key facts
- Creative coding is an exploratory and experimental process that uses code as a medium of expressing ideas to create artwork. We will use these basic skills for creating visual art projects.
- The programming language that we will use during the course is Processing, but learning processing is just a side effect. The knowledge and skills acquired by the students during the course are transferable to other programming languages like Java or JavaScript.
- Knowledge and understanding: at the end of the course, students will be familiar with basic programming concepts (e.g., variables, expressions, statements, loops, and functions) and creative coding concepts (e.g., shapes, color, interaction, typography, and 2D transformations)
- Applying knowledge and understanding: Students in the Creative Coding course from Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam will be able to reproduce existing visual ideas and express their own visual ideas in small to medium-sized programs.
- Communication skills: Students will be able to read code written by others and write code such that others can easily understand it.
