Creative Coding: Immersive Art with openFrameworks
Learn the basics of C++ programming and creative coding to animate striking shapes and loops for immersive artistic installations
Coding goes far beyond programming languages and technology– it is also a medium of artistic self-expression. For Paul Ferragut, a multimedia artist and technologist, it’s allowed him to create immersive art installations with organizations like Aquarium of the Pacific in California and collaborate with companies like Facebook, Microsoft, and Intel.
In this online course, learn the fundamentals of openFrameworks, so you can create your own experiential art. Deepen your knowledge in C++ programming, and express yourself artistically in a wide variety of projects.
Meet Paul Ferragut, a multimedia artist, creative technologist, and your teacher for this course. Hear about his creative background which led him into a profession that combined art with technology, as well as his influences and inspirations.
Get introduced to the concepts related to creative coding and openFrameworks. Learn how to combine these disciplines, and write your first application with simple geometrical shapes and colors.
Explore the basics of programming. First, get familiar with variables, which are the names assigned to data in memory. Next with functions, which are like the verbs in a sentence. And lastly, conditions, which are essential to controlling actions in your animations.
Afterward, Paul walks you through animating your forms, and teaches you to use loops. Understand how to work with classes, in combination with arrays, and program one for a particle system.
