A few weeks back I taught a workshop on generative graphics as part of a cross-disciplinary « semaine de tous les possibles » (week of possibilities) at the Geneva University of Art and Design. The workshop combined students from the Master Media Design and undergraduate students from Visual Communication. We worked mostly in the realm of print, introducing code into traditional book design and/or poster design. For example, the books were generated directly in Processing using the PDF Export library to generate multi-page booklets.

TimeHue is a clock that represents time as a series of hue values ranging from 0° to 360° within in the HSL color space.
To read the clock, start from the center and move outwards: the hue of the small circle represents hours, the middle continuous hue represents minutes and the surrounding outer hue represents seconds. The segmented color wheels are merely there for reference, broken into 12 color segments for hours and 60 color segments for minutes and seconds.

An iOS (iPhone, iPodTouch, iPad) version is now available on the iTunes AppStore (TimeHue). An Android edition of TimeHue will soon be available on the Android Marketplace.
A web-app compatible version can be viewed here: TimeHue.
TimeHue was designed and developed by Douglas Edric Stanley for the abstractmachine.net « discrete clocks » series. The iOS and Android editions were built with OpenFrameworks. The web-app edition was built with Processing.js.

TimeHue est une horloge qui affiche l’heure sous la forme de valeurs colormétriques entre 0° et 360° (cf. TSL).

« Photo/Nykto » is an experimental game conceived by Annelore Schneider and Douglas Edric Stanley as part of the « Unterplay » project at the Master Media Design —HEAD, Genève. It is a game for nyktophobes and photophobes. It is played by switching on and off the lights in order to avoid reaching the edge of the screen. The score increases exponentially near the edges, and speeds up with each change from light to dark and back.
Photo/Nykto was developed by Douglas Edric Stanley using OpenFrameworks.
« Photo/Nykto » est un jeu expérimental conçu par Annelore Schneider et Douglas Edric Stanley pendant un des workshop liés au « Unterplay » au Master Media Design —HEAD Genève. Il s'agit d'un jeu pour nyktophobes et photophobes. On y joue en allumant et en éteignant les lumières, et en éloignant la séparation noir/blanc des bords de l'écran. Le score augmente de manière exponentielle lorsqu'on s'approche des bords et la vitesse générale s'augmente à chaque alternance entre lumière et obscurité.
