[WSG25] Daily Study Group: Creative Computation

Posted 4 months ago

enter image description here

A Wolfram U Daily Study Group on Creative Computation begins on May 12th 2025.

Join me, Eryn Gillam, and a group of fellow learners to learn how to use Wolfram Language in creative ways. Our topics for the study group include creating computational art, computational poetry, audio visualization, and building two types of video games. Along the way, we'll learn how to code effectively in Wolfram Language.

No prior Wolfram Language experience is required.

Please feel free to use this thread to collaborate and share ideas, materials, and links to other resources with fellow learners.

Dates

May 12th-16th

11am-12:30pm CT (4-5:30pm GMT)

Someone asked how to review the poll questions after a class. One way is to slog through the video replay of the class. Another way is to take a screen shot of the poll questions window during the live presentation to save/review later. Depending on the real estate and the number of questions, you may be able to capture all the questions in one screen shot. On a MacBook, you take screenshots by running the ScreenShot app. I'm sure there's a way to do that on PCs and Linux systems. Alternatively, you could just take a picture of the presentation on a smart phone.

In Monday's class, Eryn showed an exercise drawing random circles with random colors. They showed the example one way, and then with the Style[] function. When Eryn did the Style example, they ran out of time. The final step is easy: you just wrap the second expression with Graphics[]. I just did this in a notebook and attached it here. Hopefully, that will display when I post this message.
