Computational & Interactive Art

Course dates: March 2025

​​This is a 1-day course at Shoshin College.

​A one-day beginners' workshop in both the practical skills for, and a philosophy of, computer based / interactive art using P5 and OpenProcessing.

​I have distilled this from my practice over the last 15 years. And from material I've taught everywhere from postgraduate seminars at university, to small-town, rural schools in the heart of Brazil. This course is slightly unusual in that the goal is to teach both the practical / programming technique in conjunction with a philosophy of computational / interactive art.

​Note that this 1-day, compressed version of the course is aimed at those who have at least some programming experience already. Students will be expected to be familiar with the concept of programming languages, variables, if statements, loops and arrays, objects and libraries.

​This course it taking place on Saturday, 1 March 2025. We start at 9:30pm. The day will be split into 3 sessions. Location: 133 Bethnal Green Road, London E2 7DG.

​Please come with your laptop and your headphones!
