Overview
In a live coding environment, participants in this Creative Coding course at the University of Applied Sciences and Arts Northwestern Switzerland develop algorithmically generated forms and typography, experiment with animation, interaction, and audio-reactive visualizations, and design their own digital tools for visual communication.
Features
This workshop (intended for both absolute beginners and experienced coders alike) dives right into key functions for generating forms and type, setting them into motion, allowing user interaction to influence them and design our own digital tools for visual communication.
In this workflow, the course will explore live coding, using a custom environment, where one sees instantaneous visuals as the code changes.
