Description
This English-language course introduces students into the world of programming in general, and of Processing-based graphics programming in particular.
It is popular among students of architecture, industrial design, graphics design, and art & science. In general, anyone who is interested in this topic is welcome.
The course aims to build programming knowledge from the ground up. We spend a lot of time engaging the basic building blocks of progamming, such as variables, conditional statements, loops, and functions. We also learn how to use the Processing system to render exciting, interactive graphics.
Students do not have to possess prior knowledge about programming. However, they do need to bring a laptop, and a good deal of engagement.
Examination Modalities
The course is graded on the basis of incremental assignments, which have to be handed in at the end of the semester.
Key Words
processing, java, programming, architecture, graphic design, computer animation, computer graphics, digital imaging, architecture related art, design
