Creative programming in the wake of Modernism (OER)

About this Content OER

In this creative programming OER we engage with basic, familiar objects of the digital such as the pixel using JavaScript and p5.js. On our exploration we learn to appreciate how complexity is composed out of simple, elementary starting points into shapes, arrangement, colours, graphical user interfaces, data, and manipulations of the interfaces which bridge the insides and outsides of the computer. While doing so, we will touch upon shared Modernist 20th century history and possibilities of arts and technology. What might be its implications for "post-internet art" and "new aesthetics”?

Goals

The aim of the course is to familiarise students with the the media, technical, social and economic aspects of (visions of) the metaverse.
