What
This talk is about on how people use programming as a means of expression and application of creative skill and imagination producing works to be appreciated primarily for their beauty or emotional power.
We follow programming as an art form from its inception in the 1960s, artists from an arts backgrounds discovering computers in the 1970s, the rise of the amateur programmers' demoscene in the 1980s, the web being as a digital art gallery in the 1990s and the future where AI empowers artists and makes way for augmented creativity.
The talk has stunning imagery and beautiful code and it aims to inspire the audience to discover the rich world of computer art. This talk will be given in english.
The talk by @anoras on computer art might just be my favorite @javazone talk ever. pic.twitter.com/564hJmVSjr
