println("Hello Waves!");
The Creative Coding classes are articulated with our observation courses, providing students with essential observation methods throughout a week-long program. During this immersive experience, students conduct field research to gather a diverse range of data, including textures, sounds, images, and electromagnetic waves. They explore the electromagnetic spectrum in and around Geneva, gaining valuable insights into various infrastructures, signal types, and services, as well as the data generated by these elements. Students analyze, convert, and transform their collected data into engaging, playful, interactive, or poetic experiences.
This hands-on course begins with an introduction to coding from scratch using visual programming techniques, focusing on the creative utilization of datasets with tools such as Processing and p5.js. Students learn to process their data through various methods, including data parsing, filtering, and visualization.
For the final presentation, students integrate their fieldwork data with their newly acquired programming skills to create an engaging and interactive project. This piece will enable them to share a narrative or experience derived from their dataset exploration, making their insights accessible to a wider audience.
