COMPUTER PROGRAMMING IV

COURSE CODE: 46613

COURSE TYPE: OPTIONAL

ΕCTS: 5

SEMESTER: 6TH  | SPRING

COURSE LANGUAGE: GREEK

 

SYLLABUS

The course aims to introduce students to advanced computer programming for the development of dynamic audiovisual artworks. During the course, students learn one of the most widely used creative programming languages (such as Processing or C++/OpenFrameworks). More concretely, students learn how to develop software for dynamic audiovisual compositions, which include vector graphics, dynamic video and audio. Additionally, students learn how to develop physical computing and computer vision interfaces for interactive installations and performances. They also learn how to manage complex data structures and how to use software libraries. Finally, the students learn to develop creative applications for mobile devices. Through the presentation of case studies and hands-on computer programming practice, students gain the required knowledge and skills for the development of advanced programs for dynamic digital artworks.

 

The main thematic units of the course are the following:

  1. Generative algorithms for dynamic visuals (vector graphics, images and videos)
  2. Generative algorithms for dynamic audio.
  3. Management of complex data structures and data visualization.
  4. Integration and use of software libraries.
  5. Programming interactive physical computing interfaces for artistic installations
  6. Programming interactive computer vision interfaces for artistic performances.
  7. Development of software for data retrieval from internet sources

Development of creative applications for mobile devices.
