JavaScript is the programming language that powers the web and is one of the most popular and pervasive, modern coding languages available today. In this workshop we will approach JavaScript from the perspective of creating small, creative projects (sketches) that are media focused (art, animated graphics, sound, and music). You will learn JavaScript basics along side the P5.js library (https://p5js.org/) which greatly simplifies media usage. There will be no programs to install and all of our sketches will be constructed and executed within your web browser (using Chrome) - https://editor.p5js.org/.

Bring your laptop and let’s have some fun coding!

On Monday, November 18th there will be an optional JavaScript Open studio for students of this class to enable one-on-one focused assistance with the instructor.

Skill Level: Beginner - No previous coding experience required.

Ages: Ages 14+ Welcome.
