Coding 0 to 1 with Luisa Pereira

In this three-hour, hands-on workshop, we will introduce the building blocks of computer programming by creating visual compositions using p5.js. As you draw repeating, translucent, mouse-following rectangles, lines, and circles, you will learn about variables, loops, if statements, and interactivity. This workshop is designed especially for beginners, 0 programming experience is expected. However, there will be preparatory assignments.

Luisa Pereira is an artist, programmer, and musician based in New York City. Her work often explores music through coding and design, taking the form of interactive installations, generative devices, sculptures and prints.
Luisa's work has been presented in festivals and galleries in the US, Europe and South America. Recent venues include the Museum of Contemporary Art in Santiago de Chile, the FILE festival in São Paulo, and the NIME conference in London.
Raised in Montevideo, Uruguay, Luisa received a degree in Systems Engineering before moving to NYC to attend NYUs Interactive Telecommunications Program (ITP), where she has served as a post-graduate research fellow and adjunct professor.
