CODE IN DESIGN:
GDES ELECTIVE COURSE
The class was an experimental introduction to using code as a creative tool within a design practice. The semester-long course was divided into five peojects to cover and explore different elements of design in intersection with code: basics, image, type, data visulisation, and sound. Below are a selection of the students explorations from each project.
Class was in the Fall of 2020, I was TA-ing the Code in Design Graphic Design elective at Virginia Commenwealth University in Qatar, with Levi Hammett. All the projects were coded using openFrameworks.
