Creative Coding for Live Visuals

Dan Hett

17 June 2017, 12.00-17.00

BAFTA-winning digital artist Dan Hett brings his computational creativity crash-course to Supersonic! Aimed at complete beginners, this course will take attendees on a colourful and interactive hands-on journey into making noise and colour with a computer. The course will firstly look at livecoding visuals and noise in the browser using the amazing LiveCodeLab, and then heads into creating unpredictable and colourful drawing tools using Processing.

This will then be followed by a visuals “jam session” where participants will perform visuals against a backdrop of music by Leon Trimble aka Chromatouch.

No previous coding experience is necessary, but you will need to bring a sparkling can-do attitude and a willingness to experiment.

You will need:
– A laptop that can connect to the internet (Windows, OSX and Linux are all fine)
– Google Chrome https://www.google.com/chrome/
– Processing, which can be downloaded for Windows, OSX and Linux https://processing.org/

This event is £5+booking fee for Supersonic Festival ticket holders and £10+booking fee for general public. Book here
