This course is an online course in partnership with creativeLIVE

Create your own drawing and animation software-and learn basic
programming and electronics skills at the same time. This engaging
5-week online course introduces you to two simple tools: Processing, a
programming language for visual thinkers, and Arduino, a hardware
platform for working with electronics. You'll learn how to use these
tools together to build something useful right away. You'll learn to:

   * Use Processing to create basic software applications
   * Make your own drawing and animation tools
   * Create a GUI (Graphical User Interface) to control your software
   * Use an Arduino to provide physical controls for your drawing and
animation tools
