CSC 295 2012F Algorithmic Arts : Handouts

Official Blurb

This handout is also available in PDF.

Computer Science 295.01 "Special Topic: Algorithmic Arts"

Artists, composers, and designers have transformed their work with computing. Some transformations come from new tools, like Photoshop or Finale. Others stem from artists embracing algorithms, from the British computer arts of the 1950's to modern live coding performances. Arts have also affected the design of algorithms, leading to a discipline of aesthetic computing. This weekly reading group will consider perspectives on the relationships between arts, computing, and algorithms. S/D/F only.

Prerequisite: Second year standing.

Disclaimer: I usually create these pages on the fly, which means that I rarely proofread them and they may contain bad grammar and incorrect details. It also means that I tend to update them regularly (see the history for more details). Feel free to contact me with any suggestions for changes.
