Visuals by code

Some resources I’ve mentioned in the lecture of visuals by code ( 20-05-2009 ).

A lot of interactive tools like Flash and Processing serve well to make visual effects. By using relative simple scripts ( re-use and play ! ) you can create complex and cool looking visuals. Most tools let you export the material to image sequences or even video. Make use of them even for non-interactive stuff. Try some examples to create some genenerative art yourself.Lets start using your creativity and start playing, ‘remixing’ and mashing up some code.
