Project 3: Wearable Data Portraits
In this project you’ll write Processing code, producing a visualization of the data you’ve been collecting, then develop in Illustrator, print and construct a wearable accessory.
We’ll photograph you (or your model) in a runway show critique on Tuesday, Nov 19.
Processing is a programming environment built especially for work in new media, visual design, and art with the purpose of teaching non-programmers the fundamentals of programming. Processing is built on the Java language.
For October 31, in-class: download Processing to your laptops or use the MacLab Processing app, watch and participate in this video intro to Processing, and share with the class the data you’ve been collecting.
