At @fosdem.org this weekend?

We’ll be presenting a talk on how the landscape for learning to code has changed and what that means for creative coding. Can we build tools that preserve learner agency, curiosity, and critical thinking?

Come find us. We'd love to chat!

A promotional graphic for the exhibition "Compositions in Code: The Art of Processing and p5.js" at the Museum of the Moving Image (MoMI), opening on March 6, 2025. The background features a generative art-style digital landscape with jagged, wireframe-like mountains in shades of blue and purple against a bright pink sky. The exhibition title appears in large white text at the top, with the subtitle "The Art of Processing and p5.js" in smaller font below. The names of featured artists—Marius Watz / Aleksandra Jovanić, LIA / Sarah Ridgley, and Robert Hodgin / Melissa Wiederrecht—are centered in white text. At the bottom, logos for MoMI, Tezos, and the Processing Foundation indicate the event’s co-presenters.

As Nvidia senior research manager Jim Fan put it on X: “We are living in a timeline where a non-US company is keeping the original mission of OpenAI alive — truly open, frontier research that empowers all. It makes no sense. The most entertaining outcome is the most likely.”

thanks for sharing!

Ever tried projection mapping? It's now a breeze with

Amazing read about p5.js and its community 🌸

Thanks! Would love to learn how educators integrate Critical Coding Cookbook in their classes as we prepare for another edition.

The Critical Coding Cookbook PDF Reader is now downloadable at criticalcode.recipes/downloads. The 276 pages of delicious reading includes hyperlinks to code examples and it’s printer-friendly 🍥

Special thanks to Munus Shih for turning the website into a book 🍢
