Tomorrow at TodaysArt: OpenTools Meet-Up & Creative Coding Symposium

Whether its workshops or talks you’re after (or just meeting up), TodaysArt in the Hague is the centre of attention this weekend.

Tomorrow, Saturday the 28th of September from 15:30 till 19:00, TodaysArt will host a ‘Creative Code’ session in collaboration with DOTS consisting of Q&As and interviews with, and presentations by, a number of artists presenting work at the festival, including FIBER’s own Jarl Schulp, who will be interviewed about the Coded Matter(s) series. Information about the symposium and its other speakers can be found here.

To complement this symposium, we’re organising the Open Tools meet-up and workshop, together with SETUP. The lab is a meeting place, open work session and presentation opportunity for all creators and visitors of the DOTS symposium and TodaysArt festival. We invite everyone working with – or is simply interested in – code, to share their experiences, tricks and/or tools. The lab is an informal gathering; everyone can join or visit.

SETUP will give a workshop as a sneak preview of their upcoming ‘Apps om in te lijsten’ (‘apps to frame’) course for beginners. In this workshop coders and interested people (without experience) will be taught in one hour how to modify a Breakout game written in Processing into an interactive work of art that will be framed and shown on the wall. The workshop is based on Steph Thirion’s “Gamemod”. Participants will be guided by two experienced Processing coders. Apply for the workshop here.
