Description
This module at the University of Limerick introduces students to the principles of algorithmic visuals, using the Processing language. The goals are:
- To gain an understanding of the history of algorithmic visuals and data visualisation.
- To gain familiarity with current artistic practices in these fields.
- To understand the limitations and benefits of Processing as a tool for these problems.
- To develop object-oriented code that is clear, organised, and designed for re-use.
The demo reel (from spring 2019) compiles highlights from the first assignment in this module.
