Videos

  • Images and Pixels -- these videos are for Processing and therefore only the concepts apply, the p5.js code is different.
  • Kinect tutorials -- these videos are for Processing and therefore only the concepts apply, the p5.js code is different. If you want to use a Kinect for a project, we do have some at ITP you can borrow and also there is the kimotion p5.js library.

Example Code

Coding

Create a sketch that uses external media (images, sound, video). Some ideas are:

  • Make something responsive to microphone input. Here is a simple example
  • Create a "photobooth" with augmented snapshots from a camera.
  • Create a "painting" system that colors pixels according to camera input. Here are some model examples: Pointillism, Painters, Brightness Mirror, Scribbler.
  • Make a slideshow of images. Take a look at this Crossfade Effect.
  • Use one of the computer vision examples to augment a video image. Can you put glasses on a face or make Particles come out of a person's mouth, etc.? You can use this example as a model: Simple Face Detection. There are some other new ones too under "clmtracker".

Blog posts

  • Document your process on the above. Consider include links to other projects that serve as references, inspiration, or deal with similar ideas as your homework.
  • Write a response to our visit to Second Story and the V&A. Some questions to consider (you don't need to answer these, just some ideas to get you started):
    • What surprised you about their design process?
    • Does the role "creative technologist" mean anything to you? Is this different than "programmer"?
    • What projects of theirs did you find compelling? Inspiring? What projects did you not like and why?
