Can a computer make art? Sure. Can you make art with a computer? Absolutely! Even if you (think you) have never written code before.
In this practical workshop you will learn how to make a bot that tweets your generative art.
2016 was announced to be the year of bots. As people move from social networks to messaging apps, companies increasingly hijack human conversations with conversational interfaces. There are weather bots, news bots, grocery bots, scheduling bots…
This is an opportunity for us to play with the language of bots, to develop a better understanding of how their generative grammars work, and to think critically about their impact on our own language.
