Processing is an open source java simplification that allows designers and artists to use computation in their works.

Initiated by Benjamin Fry and Casey Reas, Processing is an open project that evolved from ideas explored in the Aesthetics and Computation Group at the MIT Media Lab. Processing, as a tool for programming animation sound and images, is a simple text editor in the encounter of computation aesthetics and interaction.


[ Contents ]

- Shape creation in x, y and z;
- Animation;
- Reading and writing images;
- Real-time video processing and Computer vision;
- Real-time sound analyses.

The workshop will be an insight into processing and computational design exploring subjects like 3D, particule systems, sound analyses, image and video processing.

The aim is that the workshop results promote a common idea to be presented in images, video and sound.


[ Schedule ]

26th to 30th of September 19-23h.

30th September: Public presentation of the workshop results at 23h.
