one of the first exercises I assign to my students in my seminars is called âRandom Compositionsâ. Basically, itâs quite simple and could be formulated as a prompt like this: Develop a sketch using Processing or p5.js in which various shapes get randomly placed on the format. The results that my conceptually very strong students come up with are often absolutely remarkable. They often weave a story, a certain poetry into this seemingly abstract brief, bringing unusual ideas from their own individual context into play and turn it into something utterly unique. One project in particular hooked me in my seminar, simply because it was precisely this transfer of the task into a something poetic that took place so smoothly and elegantly. It was created by Papon Punyahotra and is called âComputer Cursiveâ. Letâs just let him speak for himself:
Have a great week! âïž
