PROCESSING: CREATIVE CODING AND COMPUTATIONAL ART<br />

24<br />

Summary<br />

I wanted to create some code art historical context in this chapter <strong>and</strong> also hopefully provide<br />

some inspiring role models. As you progress as a coder, you’ll want to study the<br />

work/code of others, <strong>and</strong> this list is a great place to begin. I think you’ll find, as I have, that<br />

the “creative coding” community is made up of a wonderful group of generous, intelligent,<br />

highly creative people. Proof of this can be seen daily on the <strong>Processing</strong> Discourse board<br />

(http://processing.org/discourse/yabb_beta/YaBB.cgi), where a devoted cadre of<br />

code-helper zealots—JohnG, st33d, seltar, TomC, mflux, metaphorz, arielm, fjen, blprnt,<br />

flight404, shiffman, toxi, fry, REAS, <strong>and</strong> many more—st<strong>and</strong> ready to assist new <strong>and</strong> experienced<br />

coders alike. Thanks to all of you! This book has benefited immeasurably because of<br />

your generosity <strong>and</strong> combined wisdom.

Hooray! Your file is uploaded and ready to be published.
