Art Programming: Creating Art Using the Medium of Computers

Art Programming: Creating Art Using the Medium of Computers is a Cognitive Science class taught by Paul Dickson.

This course satisfies Division I requirements. This course requires prerequisites.

Course Description
This is a programming-based art course in which students will learn about and create artwork through the medium of computer code. They will be introduced to a variety of tools that facilitate the code-driven production of artworks, along with historical approaches to the creation of algorithmic art. This course will be run on the model of studio art courses and will therefore include critique sessions along with technique presentation and in-class work. Project work may involve graphics, animation, sound, interactivity, and other media. Prerequisite: one programming course (in any language).
