COURSE DESCRIPTION

GDEX 3B11
Generative Media Design: Making Form with Code
0.50 Credit(s)
Studio
Prerequisite: 8.5 credits, including all first-year requirements (5.0 credits)
In this course, students will learn how programming code is an extension of manipulating forms in physical space. Students will learn how to create abstract machines that, for instance, create typography based on music, create animations that move to your heart rate, or create sculptures from genetic data. Code will become part of a toolkit to create generative form. Students will also be able to build digital tools for designing, animating, structuring. With the knowledge gained in this course students will begin to understand how to apply principles of generative design to a variety of projects in dealing with print, interaction, objects, architecture, or moving image.
