Review: Excellent companion to Processing, but needs a new edition. - This is an excellent companion to the Processing language, with plenty of code examples. Thankfully, it is not a dry programming reference manual for Processing/Java. It is thoughtfully written and introduces topics such as 3D, noise objects and recursion without getting bogged down in too much detail. It’s even humorous in places, I particularly like the idea that The Smiths and Echo and the Bunnymen are instances of class 80s English Indie Band! A very useful feature of the book is owning the physical book gives access to the online edition, which allows you to read the book side by side with a Processing sketch, cutting and pasting code directly into a sketch window. The book is over 10 years old and could do with a new edition. Not all the URLs work and I’m sure there are more recent art works that could now be listed. But still a very good book.
Review: Lovely book - The author is well respected both by myself and many across the world. This book delves into the theory behind generative art and is full of examples and code and lovely images too. Its the generative art handbook for processing - an essential guide to those who want to explore creativity with code
