GB&C December 2022 - AV Club Vol. 1 // Generative Art

Description

At @wmde, in December 2022 some employees participated in the Ginger Beer & Cake 24h hackathon and gathered to explore creating generative art with code.

This project was called AV Club Vol. 1 // Generative Art.

We created different sketches with Processing and p5js, recreated the Wikidata logo in code and animated it with different methods (audio input & midi note input).
