The Generative Art / Computational Art class explores the possibilities of using programming, generative strategies, and interaction in various contexts in artistic projects; the focus is on real-time systems that incorporate complex time structures, visuals, sound and music, and other modalities.
The topic for this semester:ThereIsMoreThanOneWayToDoIt (TimTowTdy)
TimTowTdy is a classic mantra for Perl, which some people define as a postmodern programming language. By contrast, The Zen of Python says that "There should be one-- and preferably only one --obvious way to do it".

We will explore the possibilities that open up when looking at unconventional methods, means, forms and materials of computation, which we call NonTrivial Computing.
