Realtime graphics, computer vision, hardware hacking, and audio synthesis are just a few of the crafts that fall under the banner term of “creative coding”. In this session we’ll talk about some of the creative projects putting C++ in places you might not expect it – everywhere from the Smithsonian’s permanent design collection to robotic Coca-Cola dispensers on California beaches. We’ll look at a wide spectrum of projects ranging from those of the “maker” community to commercial work from full-time professionals earning their livings in advertising and design agencies. And finally we’ll take a look at how you can use the C++ you already know to jumpstart your own creative coding projects using the open source toolkit Cinder.

Andrew Bell is a Technology Research Fellow working at the creative agency The Barbarian Group. He maintains Cinder, a C++ open source creative coding framework, as his full-time job. When he’s not coding on Cinder he can be found doing everything from writing emails about Cinder to being asleep, and yet somehow he remains single. In his career he has also coded too much in other capacities, specifically for the visual effects companies The Mill and Method.
