Full Description
The past few years programming have evolved from a low-level language that is difficult to understand to a high-level language that anyone can relate to.
Processing is a large part of this development, aiming to give individuals without a programming background a easy introduction to programming with instant visual gratification.
Processing is a programming language and integrated development environment for the computer arts and visual design communities.
The Processing-project was founded by Casey Reas and Benjamin Fry, formerly at the MIT-media Lab.
This workshop will work well as an introduction to the other processing-oriented workshops held by 1scale1.
Contents
Processing:
During the workshop we’ll introduce the participants to the Processing language, how to use the program to manipulate the output of your computer.
We’ll discuss such areas as basic programming and building your own classes in processing. You’ll also learn a little about how image processing in computers works, what the difference between vector graphics and raster graphics and how to manipulate the two kinds.
If time permits, we’ll also try to introduce you to sounds as well.
Target Audience
The workshop is aimed at artists, engineers, musicians, programmers, interaction designers, architects, fashion designers or any other person interested in new media or interactive architecture.
Technical Requirements
