Designer who use/develop open source software
Casey Reas and Ben Fry - Processing.org/
* "Processing is an open source programming language and environment for people who want to program images, animation, and sound. It is used by students, artists, designers, architects, researchers, and hobbyists for learning, prototyping, and production. It is created to teach fundamentals of computer programming within a visual context and to serve as a software sketchbook and professional production tool. Processing is developed by artists and designers as an alternative to proprietary software tools in the same domain." (processing.org)
* Processing is an open project initiated by Ben Fry and Casey Reas . Processing evolved from ideas explored in the Aesthetics and Computation Group at the MIT Media Lab.
Ben Fry
* Received his doctoral degree from MIT media laboratory, his research there focused on visualizing large amounts of data from dynamic information sources.
* Work shown at Whitney Biennial in 2002, Copper Hewitt Design Triennial in 2003, as well as the Museum of Modern art in New York.
* he developed Processing with Casey Reas an open source programming environment for teching computational design and sketching interactive media software, that won a golden Nica in 2005.
Casey Reas
* After graduating reas began to exhibit his software and installations internationally in galleries and festivals.
* In august 2001 he moved to Italy as one of the founding professors at the interaction design institute ivrea, simultaneously reas initiated Processing with Ben Fry.
* An environment for people who want to program images, animation and sound.
* Reas moved back to LA and became an assistant professor in the department of design/ media arts at UCLA.
* "As an artist, Reas is employing ideas explored in conceptual and minimal artworks as focused through the contemporary lens of software. Reas' software and images are derived from short text instructions explaining processes which define networks. The instructions are expressed in different media including natural language, machine code, computer simulations, and static images. Each translation reveals a different perspective on the process and combines with the others to form a more complete representation." (from: http://reas.com/biocv.php)
