Wissensdurst der Kundschaft maximiert Marketing
Wissensdurst ist unstillbar. Lernen macht schlau & glücklich. Deshalb eignet es sich geradezu ideal für das Marketing, wo um Aufmerksamkeit gerungen wird – bekanntlich eine knappe Ressource. Ich plädiere dafür, der Kundschaft nützliches Wissen online bereitzustellen. Warum online? Nun, es steht immer bereit, ist mobil und skalierbar, lässt sich leicht mit Social Media kombinieren. Schön…

Find the Chameleon: Modes #1 #2 #3 #4
I guess you could call it „digital conceptual blatant art“ (DCBA). I’ve taken a picture of a chameleon and subjected it to four pixel based operations (modes) and sorted them in rising file size / randomness: Don’t worry if you do not find the chameleon in modes #1, #3 and #4 but once you’ve found…

Actor Driving Through „Process 0“ (VFX)
The exercise was to create a composition of a green screen clip. I took the driving actor provided by the course instructors and added a variation of Process 0 in the background: I used Blender’s node editor for the task. This video tutorial helped me a lot! The soundtrack „The Simplest (Sting)“ by Jingle Punks…

Process 0 #0793
This week I imagined the day when computers create art to awe other computers, I wondered how much randomness one can add before chaos takes over, and, finally, I found an application for exp() 😉 I like the notion of creativity as a social and cultural activity – brains as synapses of a much bigger…

Mouse Regulated Pattern
I started out with a Processing sketch (code) provided by the course instructors. The soundtrack „Prelude No. 14“ by Chris Zabriskie is taken from YouTube’s audio library: A few rules generate intricate patterns – it’s fascinating! I’ve published my sketch on GitHub. Use the mouse to control the pattern: frame rate (left/right), cell size (up…

Freeze frames: I put Blender to the task. This video tutorial was a good start! But in the dialog window „Edit Strip“ I used „Add“ for the…

I used the Processing sketches (code) provided by the course instructors 🙂 The course participants are asked to post their submissions on Flickr in the Monash Creative Coding group. Additionally, I collect mine in the Creative Coding album. Have…

Randomized Wallpaper (Ubuntu)
I like changing wallpapers. So I searched the wild wild web and found a way to create a wallpaper slideshow and the wallpaper manager Cortina. Both require me to do some work! There has to be a better way… On „Ask Ubuntu“ I discovered a super-duper bash script which randomly changes the wallpaper from a…
