Joel and Dave playing with openframeworks and arduino<\/small><\/p>\n

This weekend I went and took a 2-day workshop on openframeworks<\/a> with Zach Lieberman<\/a> and Theo Watson<\/a> – the class was mostly a bunch of cool designers and artists from London – orgnanized by tinker.it<\/a> at the Paddington Arts Center<\/a>.<\/p>\n

These are two great guys, trying to make Computer Vision and interactive art programming (and C++ more generally) easier to start with and use for everyday folks. openframeworks’ speed and open-source-ness make it an invaluable tool, potentially far superior to its non-free competitors. Zach and Theo are wonderful artists, astute thinkers and generous teachers and coders, and I consider the workshop to be a huge success – I will definitely be using openframeworks in the future, and I hope to be teaching it, too. I may even steal their line from the beginning of the class: “you are all officially adopted; we take teaching very seriously, and promise to help you in your work from here on out.”<\/p>\n

Thanks everybody! Check out the openframeworks wiki<\/a> if you want to read a bit more about it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
