[x] Processing Workshop - September

[P5Van]

Processing (P5)
September 10, 12, 17 and 19. All sessions run 7-10pm

Processing (P5) is an open source programming language and development environment for people who want to create images, animations and interactions.

Initially developed to serve as a software sketchbook and to teach fundamentals of computer programming within a visual context, P5 also has evolved into a tool for generating finished professional work. Today, there are tens of thousands of students, artists, designers, researchers, and hobbyists who use P5 for learning, prototyping, and production.

This course is aimed at giving a rapid introduction to programming using P5, creating dynamic and reactive content in a project-driven environment. By making onscreen visuals from the very first minute, this hands-on workshop practices learning-by-doing.

Session II
Extending Processing with Libraries. Interaction with Mouse, Keyboard, Cameras, Microphones, Controllers, Network, Arduino. Audio-video playback. Animation. Web and Android modes.
