Look inside
In this liveProject, you’ll use p5.js to animate still photos or artwork. You’ll start by animating simple object images with interaction techniques, then animate landscape photos using layers and transparency. Finally, you’ll extend these techniques to creative drawing on images.
This project is designed for learning purposes and is not a complete, production-ready application or solution.

book resources

When you start your liveProject, you get full access to the following books for 90 days.

project authors

Yu Zhang
Dr. Yu Zhang has a background in fine arts and design. Her Ph.D. research investigates the theory and artistic practice of interactive technologies for public, large-scale installations. As a researcher and artist, she approaches visual art with mixed reality installations and projections, sensor-based interactives, and computational arts. She has been teaching design and art in international workshops and higher education for over ten years.
Mathias Funk
Dr. Mathias Funk is an Associate Professor in the Future Everyday group in the Department of Industrial Design at the Eindhoven University of Technology. He has a background in Computer Science and a Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering from Eindhoven University of Technology. Since 2011, he has taught creative programming, computational prototyping, and designing with data and connectivity, and built tools for design researchers.

prerequisites

For JavaScript programmers interested in developing or rediscovering their creativity with easy visual computing techniques.

TOOLS
  • Basic JavaScript
  • Basics of p5.js
TECHNIQUES
  • Basic debugging
  • Basic math such as linear algebra (vectors and vector addition) and geometry

you will learn

In this liveProject series, you’ll expand your perspectives on programming and turn a professional craft into a fun activity once again. By revisiting computational concepts from a creativity-inspired angle, you’ll learn how code can be an expressive and explorative tool instead of just a problem solver.

  • p5.js canvas and coordinate system basics
  • p5.js drawing primitives and transformations
  • p5.js file and image handling
  • p5.js draw layers and masks
  • p5.js interaction with mouse and keyboard
