An event happening exclusivly via Zoom, Google Meet or similar online video communication system. A link will typically be shared via email once a person has registered or will be posted to the event page.
Processing is a way for code to create stunning and artistic visuals. This session will be aimed at beginners with minimal exposure to coding and are interested learning with a system that gives rewarding feedback. Processing is a sister project to Arduino and output from Arduino serial data can be used as an input to visualizations.
Examples of artists using processing: https://vimeo.com/320513063
Processing across different langauges
- Prosession (java based)
- Processing.js
- p5js
- Processing.py
- Wiring and Arduino
- iProcessing
- JRubyArt
Howver we will be using a free online editor https://editor.p5js.org/.
We will then explore:
1. Create a basic program from scratch
- Coordinates (check what things do at: https://processing.org/reference/)
- Shapes
- Loop
2. Go through examples and talk about what makes them work.
3. Experiment
- Modify examples

Processing can be shared online. The following are some examples of visualizations created in processing.
