Creative Coding Series

Series of Master Media Design talks

Wednesday 15 February 2023

Creative Coding series is a collection of conversations with creative technologists, creative coders, artists, designers and Master Media Design first-year students. We discuss creative coding processes, using the computer as a creative medium and diving into experimental approaches for interaction design.

The 2022 - 2023 webinar series addressed various topics such as how to conduct web projects with 3D visuals, how to create playful experiences with code and, machine learning or how to address the questions of intersectionality in the field of creative coding.  Our guests for the 2022- 2023 edition are: KT Duffy, Daniel Baragwanath and Rifke Sadleir from DXR.ZONE and Tomo Kihara. They are internationally renowned artists, designers and researchers. 

This series of talks is part of our Creative Coding workshop that is taught in the autumn semester in the Masters Media Design programme at HEAD – Genève.
This year the workshop was led by Damien Baïs and Nicolas Baldran.

The series of talks is curated by Alexia Mathieu, Head of Master Media Design.

KT Duffy

KT Duffy (b. 1987) is a new media artist from Chicago’s southwest side and is currently an Assistant Professor in Art, Technology, and Culture at the University of Oklahoma.
They received their MFA in Interdisciplinary Art from the Maryland Institute College of Art. Duffy is currently an Assistant Professor of Art, Technology, and Culture at the University of Oklahoma. They live in Chicago, IL and Norman, OK with their partners and dogs.

Duffy conjures entities into existence via code-based processes and digital fabrication. As a Neurodivergent-NonBinary person, the normative modalities of learning and making were not designed for them. To move through these structures, they made their own systems, glitching and patching and breaking the entanglements of binary logic; manifesting into infinite possibility, translating the immeasurable interconnection of transcendent sentience, and examining the impending demise of binary systems.  In addition to their own creative practices, Duffy is a member of a number of ongoing collaborative endeavors such as Langer Over Dickie Projects, CQDELab, and Mx. Studio.
