BioData Processing
Offered By: Coursera Project Network via Coursera
Course Description
Overview
Can we communicate with other living beings besides animals?
For example, it is well known that plants and fungi are sentient creatures, but modern societies/humans seem to regard this fact as unworthy of much attention. Perhaps we do so because we lack a common language to establish such inter-realms communication.
In this hands-on project you will challenge this frontier by translating electric signals (BioData) from plants and fungi into audio-visual media that we humans are capable of relating to. In order to accomplish this, you will engage with Processing, "a flexible software sketchbook and a language for learning how to code within the context of the visual arts."
Optional: In case you have an Anduino kit this project can be double fun, as learners will have instructions on how to collect the BioData themselves.
Syllabus
- Project Overview
- In this guided project you will do some creative coding with the Processing framework in order to translated electrical signals collected from plants and mushrooms into visualizations and sound. Please open this page (https://github.com/dnllvrvz/BioData-Inquiry) on your computer before starting the project. It will help you!
