Intro to Processing:  Creative Coding and Interactive Animations

AS220 Industries

AS220 Media Arts

This workshop will introduce the basics of creative coding with Processing. Participants will learn how to create graphics and animations while covering the fundamentals of this open-source programming language. We will also cover basic interactivity including controlling animations using gesture recognition. Topics•	Creating a sketch•	Drawing shapes•	Creating animation•	Working with variables•	Interactivity •	Working with external librariesLaura Splan is a Brooklyn, NY artist working at the intersections of art, science, and technology. Her conceptually based projects examine the material manifestations of our mutable relationship with the human body. These projects reconsider perceptions and representations of the corporeal with a range of traditional and new media techniques. Her frequent combinations of textiles with technology challenge values of "the hand" in creative production and question notions of agency and chance in aesthetics. She often combines the quotidian with the unfamiliar to interrogate culturally constructed notions of order and disorder, function and dysfunction. Splan’s recent work uses biosensors (electromyography, electroencephalography) to create data-driven forms and patterns for digitally fabricated sculptures, weavings and works on paper as well as for performances with sensor-actuated apparatus. Splan's work has been exhibited widely in the U.S. as well as abroad in Iceland, South Korea, England, Germany, Sweden, and Austria at venues including the Museum of Arts &amp; Design (New York, NY), Stadtgalerie Lehen (Salzburg), and Beall Center for Art + Technology (Irvine, CA). Reviews and articles including her work have appeared in The New York Times, Village Voice, American Craft, and Discover Magazine. Her research and residencies have been funded by The Jerome Foundation, The Pollack Krasner Foundation, and The Institute for Electronic Arts. Commissions for her transdisciplinary projects have been supported by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Gen Art New Media Art Exhibition, and Davidson College. Her work is included in the collections of The Thoma Art Foundation (Santa Fe), The NYU Langone Art Collection (New York City), and The Science Center (Philadelphia).
