How do recent technological developments empower makers to generate new creative avenues? How is the creative coding landscape going to evolve in the coming few years? These questions will be explored during the creative coding symposium ITERATIONS.
With a focus on inclusivity, they invited a group of creatives from different creative coding niches. This edition will focus on four themes: developing design tools (in the browser), sustainable computing, world-building, and creative education. They will explore them through presentations, performances, interactive sessions, workshops and a music program including an Algorave.
Creative Coding Utrecht (CCU) is a platform for digital creativity. CCU supports creators, connects organizations and transcends sectors, inspires audiences and shares knowledge with hobbyists and ICT professionals. In 2024 CCU became a Zoöp, a cooperative where all forms of life (zöe) work together. A Zoöp ensures that non-human voices and interests are heard and considered in the decision-making and working practices.
