Status update for Week 12 on my journey to learn creative coding, as part of the University of Colorado Boulder’s “Professional Development in Computer Science” course.
What did I do last week?
I watched a few videos from the “How to Code Generative Art” YouTube tutorial playlist, fell down a research rabbit hole of artistic / experimental / abstract / poetic games, coordinated one more Zoom call with a creative coding studio in Vienna before the semester ends, and took notes on what I’d like to include in the Final Project Report.
What do I plan to do this week?
I want to code a few tiny sketches in p5.js, prep and conduct the last creative coder Zoom call for the semester, and finish the Final Project Report.
Any impediments in my way?
Exams and final projects for my other classes, plus some traveling.
Reflection on the process?
Drafting the Final Project Report has been a lot of fun - it’s amazing to see how much I learned this semester!
