Contents

This course offers a practical introduction to Infovis with the "Processing" framework. The course takes place as a two-week full time workshop. After an introduction to Processing, participants work in small groups on visualisation projects for freely available datasets.

The course also covers basic topics of computer graphics, such as drawing geometric objects, also in 3D space, and affine transformations. Participants are expected to know at least the basics of object-oriented programming in any language, ideally in Java. Prior knowledge of Processing is not required.

Please note that you need to bring your own laptop. We are happy to offer the course in English if international students take part.

The course is suitable for:

  • Students of Media informatics (Bachelor, Master)
  • Students of Art and Multimedia (Bachelor)

Registration

Master: You have to apply for this practical course via the UniWorX central registration process.

Bachelor: You have to apply for this practical course via UniWorX here.

This course takes place 19.2. - 2.3. (full day, without weekend). Attendance is mandatory and will be checked each day.

Please submit the following information as your application:

  • Relevant prior knowledge, e.g. Processing, Java, web development, other programming languages, computer graphics (technical, not design), infovis, digital design. Also annotate how you obtained these skills (e.g. lecture, job, own projects).
  • A short motivation statement (100 words), explaining why you want to take part in this course.
  • Optional, if you already have a concrete idea: Briefly describe it, including with which dataset or API you would like to work during the course.
