This course is for anyone who would like to apply their technical skills to creative work ranging from video games to art installations to interactive music, and also for artists who would like to use programming in their artistic practice. This course will teach you how to develop and apply programming skills to creative work. This is an important skill within the development of creative mobile applications, digital music and video games. It will teach the technical skills needed to write software that make use of images, audio and graphics, and will concentrate on the application of these skills to creative projects. Additional resources will be provided for students with no programming background. At the end of this course, you will be able to: * Write creative, audiovisual programs in the Processing environment that run on desktop and mobile * Programatically manipulate sound in creative ways * Display images and image sequences * Generate interactive, algorithmic graphics * Work with a 2D physics engine to create a basic game

From the lesson

Sonic Painter

This week we are getting up and running with the Processing IDE. We will show you the basics of writing Processing sketches then move onto some graphics and audio concepts. Mick will then introduce our first audiovisual example - SonicPainter, which allows users to interactively paint with synchronised graphics and sound.

[SOUND]. Hi, welcome to Lesson 1 of Creative

Programming for Digital Media and Mobile Apps.

I'm Mick, and this is Matt and Marco. And we're going to take you through six

individual lessons starting with this week, which is all about the basics of

drawing and the basics of sound. So, first of all, we need to know how to

manipulate graphics and draw them to the screen and we also need to know how

images are represented on the screen. Marco is going to take you through that,

and he's also going to give you a introduction on how to use processing for

making desktop applications. Matt's going to take you through how to

control sound and how to find and play back sounds from the internet.

He's also going to talk a little bit about manipulating sound, and how sound

is represented in the computer. In addition, he's going to show you a

little about how to run applications that we develop on Android phones.

And then, I'm going to take you through the basics of using Apple devices.

And after that, I'm going to show you how to make a basic app with simple

interactions, like mouse and touch interaction.

That plays back different sounds in different ways.

And also changes the way that certain types of images are drawn.

So, that's really what this lesson is about.

It's kind of easing you in to the whole idea of making creative applications.

And if you've got any questions, you can check the forums.

We'll be looking out for any of you who have particular issues.

It's always a bit difficult getting started running software for the first

time. So, we've got a whole load of examples

that you can download from the Coursera website.

We're going to be referring to them throughout the next six weeks starting

this week. So, make sure that before you ask

questions, you have a look on the documentation that we've put on the

website. There's a lot there.

There are also people who are going to be on the forums, expecting you to ask good,

relevant questions. And hopefully, if you are stuck, then

we'll be able to sort that out. So I think we're going to start off with

Marco. I think he's going to do some graphics,

and then move on to Matt, and then I'll be seeing you later on.
