The workshop session will open out the basics of computational thinking and creative coding with p5js and shaders.

About this event

If you have been curious about creative coding or trying it on your own experiments with p5js, processing, or shaders and are ready for half a day of immersion, fun, experimentation, and laughter, please join us!

The half-day workshop will be led by ilithya and Computational Mama, where they will walk you through the basics of building simple interactive sketches with p5js and pixel shaders.

As a creative practitioner, the workshop is not about becoming a computational artist or a coder, but about incorporating computational mindsets and tools into your artistic practice.

Consider this a gateway drug into the wonderful world of creative coding!

What is p5js?

p5js is a JavaScript library for creative coding, with a focus on making coding accessible and inclusive for artists, designers, educators, beginners, and anyone else!

This half of the workshop will be led by Computational Mama. We'll explore and recreate artwork from South Asian Women Artists all through code. Focussing on works from the region, we will understand a bit about history and art and map our understanding onto quick digital computational works. We'll get our hands dirty with quick prototypes on p5js!

What are pixel shaders?

Pixel shaders, also known as fragment shaders, compute color and other attributes of each "fragment". They range from simply always outputting the same color, to applying a lighting value, to doing bump mapping, shadows, specular highlights, translucency, and other phenomena.

This half of the workshop will be led by ilithya. We’ll explore the RGB color model and create artworks inspired by abstract and geometric art through code and mathematics. We’ll have a visual understanding of how the usage of trigonometry equations and other math functions aid in drawing and adding motion to our sketches.
