Writing code to draw is a fun, easy way for artists to learn computer programming. We focus on the basic elements of programming and apply them to making digital prints. Processing is an open source programming language and environment for creating images, animation and interaction.

Students write code to create images for high-resolution digital prints using the Processing environment and print on digital printers. No programming experience is necessary, but participants should be very comfortable using computers. Too much programming experience is discouraged.

Short presentations on technique and concept are mixed with studio work sessions. The instructor tutors students individually during studio time. New techniques are introduced in the first three days with concentration on a final project during the last two days.
