Creative Coding is rapidly becoming a very popular topic all around the world. It involves the creation of high-tech interactive digital artworks by using open-source as well as affordable commercial tools and hardware that was not available before. In the context of playing live visual material in real-time, you do need to have skills in creative coding and live performance, which means that you have to be engaged to the environment that allows you to manipulate with your created applications in real-time. The workshops are free-of-charge, but have a limit of maximum 10 persons each. So submit a motivation letter & short bio by deadline 8.3!.
