Can we make art on a computer? This question has excited many artists over the years and led to the creation of a wide range of artworks with coding, from simple geometric shapes to images that move with artificial intelligence. In the workshop, participants experience recreating the works of Vera Molnár, one of the pioneers of algorithmic art, by adding their interpretations. Creating random colors and symmetries on a digital canvas, participants explore the sources of creativity in art through programming.
Note: Participants are not expected to have prior programming knowledge. The p5.js programming language will be used online, and there is no need for participants to install any programs on their tablets or computers.

I think it was Frank Zappa – though others claim it was Laurie Anderson – who said in an interview that ‘writing on music is much like dancing on architecture’.
In 1962 Philip Corner, one of the most prominent members of the Fluxus movement, caused a great commotion in serious music circles when during a performance entitled Piano Activities he climbed up onto a grand piano and began to kick it while other members of the group attacked it with saws, hammers and all kinds of other implements.
