LIVE CODING PERFORMANCE
⏳ 15 hours (1.5 hrs X 10)
👩🏻💻 Class of 2-12
🌎 Online
Software is a tool for the mind. These courses explores computation as a fundamental creative media— seeing computer code the same way as painter thinks about paint, or a musician, sound, or how a dancer thinks about gesture. Programming is introduced to the new generation of students who respond well to creative tasks and visual feedback.
LAPTOP ORCHESTRA
⏳ 15 hours (1.5 hrs X 10)
👩🏻💻 Class of 6-12
🌎 Online
The first modern laptop orchestra was formed in 2005 at the Princeton University in the US. Since then the laptop orchestra is offered as an interdisciplinary course at universities across the United States. Playing in a laptop orchestra is an integral experience in art and science. It requires skills of creative coding, physical computing, circuit bending, etc. It also requires knowledge in user interface design, digital audio, and music composition.
NOVEL INSTRUMENT BUILDING
⏳ 15 hours (1.5 hrs X 10)
👩🏻💻 Class of 2-6
🌎 Online
With a traditional acoustic instrument, gesture is translated into sound mechanically. The connection between gesture used and its sonic result depends on instrument mechanics. With the help of advancement in technology, all gestures can be mapped freely to any sound since the tracking and mapping processes are independent of each other.
In this course, student will build their novel musical instruments with sensors and actuators on the Arduino platform.
GENERATIVE ART
⏳ 15 hours (1.5 hrs X 10)
👩🏻💻 Class of 2-12
🌎 Online
Generative art refers to art that
has been generated, composed, or constructed in an algorithmic manner through the use of system defined by computer software algorithms, or similar mathematical or randomised autonomous process.
Student will create a system, such as a set of natural language rules, a computer program, or other procedural invention to complete a piece of art.
CODE, SHAPES
& FORMS
⏳ 15 hours (1.5 hrs X 10)
👩🏻💻 Class of 2-12
🌎 Online
The course introduces the ideas of computer programming within the context of visual arts, and the exploration of the potential of software as a medium for communication and expression.
Students will learn the syntax and concepts of Processing. Topics covered include photography and drawing in relation to software. There are also possibilities to venture into more advanced areas like animation, performance, and typography
INTERACTIVE INSTALLATION
⏳ 15 hours (1.5 hrs X 10)
👩🏻💻 Class of 2-8
🌎 Online
Installation art is all around us. They can be found in shops, theme parks, boutiques, waiting areas and other public spaces. This course will look at ideas and concepts related to space and spectator experiences, and also multiple levels of interaction.
In this course students will work individually or collaboratively to produce a simple interactive installation to be displayed at a final exhibition.
