Product Description
Product Description
If you're interested in creating cutting-edge new media art, you've come to the right place! Processing, available at processing.org, is a revolutionary open source programming language and environment designed to bridge the gap between programming and art, allowing artists to learn programming fundamentals as easily as possible, and programmers to produce beautiful creations using math patterns. With the software being freely available, it provides an accessable alternative to using Flash for creative coding and computational art. This book is written especially for artists, designers, and other creative professionals and students exploring code art, graphics programming, and computational aesthetics. The book provides a solid foundation in basic programming and the easy-to-grasp Processing language, so no previous coding experience is necessary. The book then goes on from here, through the basics of lines, shapes, and motion, coontinuing to to the point where you'll have mastered Processing and can really start to unleash your creativity, with realistic physics, interactivity, and 3D! Summary of Contents Introduction: Chapter 1. Code Art Chapter 2. Creative Coding Chapter 3. Code Grammar 101 Chapter 4. Graphics Programming the "fun easy" Way Chapter 5. Processing Language Chapter 6. Lines Chapter 7. Curves Chapter 8. Shapes Chapter 9. Value and Color Chapter 10. Motion Chapter 11. Interactivity Chapter 12. 3D
About the Author
The author is a professor at Miami University, and teaches this stuff all
the time. He will be instrumental in getting to book exposed to his course,
and similar courses who could use the book as course material. He seems
very enthusiastic to do so. He had this to say:
"The Center for Interactive Media Studies at Miami will adopt the book as a
textbook. I also plan on lecturing and leading workshops on Processing/code
art at other institutions/conferences and of course plugging the book."
He is also speaking at a book promotion at the International Digital Media
and Arts Association Conference, April 6-8 2006 at Miami University. The
conference will have many academic and professional attendees in the
digital arts area. The book will be showcased here.
