Processing Magic

Learning about computational creativity was one of the main reasons why I decided to started the studies in Interaction Design. It is such an unexplored area and generative art can reach immersive levels never imagined before. Having this week dedicated to Processing experimentation is surely a personal delight. 

David Cuartialles hold a guided exercise on how to creatively use Processing and I was happy I was able to follow actively and solve the little issues on my way successfully. At this point I really felt my knowledge built in Programming I serving me as a support for using this software. Even though the differences between Java/Processing and JavaScript are very high, I do feel it offers a starting point if you wish to learn this computational environment. 

We did have fun and we also did built a timer telling us how many seconds and minutes are left until we fry. We also created some cool randomly generated circles that implied coding a lot of arrays and variables, but the result was nice and fun I told myself.
