Processing for Visual Artists: How to Create Expressive
Images and Interactive Art teaches how to create imagery
with the Processing graphics language, created for artists,
designers or any using to create images and animation for arts or
business purposes. It provides a project-based organization
designed for artists and other types of visual thinkers, showing
how to use Processing to create successful results. The
step-by-step focus for each piece builds on knowledge and skills
and makes for a fine pick for engaging artists who have Processing
and want to make the most of it!
-The Midwest Book Review, August 2011The major
contributions of this book are its uncompromising clarification of
the creation of graphics using Processing and helping the reader to
understand the principles underlying the language constructs to be
used. ... the book has much to offer to an experienced programmer.
I highly recommend the book for those who already write code, but
want to extend their knowledge, to clarify concepts, to clean up
bad practices they acquired elsewhere, and to improve their
understanding in a richer context. The book is excellent for
turning a beginning programmer into a self-confident and
well-equipped one, who can not only admire and adopt, but also
design and create expressive images similar to the ones discussed
in the book.
-Journal of Mathematics and the Arts, August 2011... quite
accessible, using projects as platforms for teaching basics. A top
pick, this includes color art image examples throughout.
-The Midwest Book Review, January 2011If you are a visual
artist looking to take your work on a new path, Andrew Glassner's
new book is an exciting and incredibly comprehensive guide to using
Processing to create imagery with computation.
