In week 6’s class we were introduced to Processing. As I said in a previous post I have used this software before for an Art project in high school. I used it to data glitch photos. At the time I only had a basic understanding of how it worked but could make glitched images look really cool quite easily. I didn’t really know what I was doing at the time and learnt it all off youtube.
Now i’m back at it and its more frightening than ever. I was always one step behind in the demonstrations but I already had a small understanding of how it worked. With this kind of software I feel like its pretty easy to understand but it would take lots of tinkering especially with the code. I’d like to integrate the processing ‘process’ into my video work so this could be a vial option for my project. Im not sure where to start though especially how the data goes in? i’d probably make some kind of generative art, or maybe something with a live camera?
Im not sure yet but over the next week I should have a better understanding
