Image and code – new paradigms for the arts – CIANTEC 2012 (Portuguese Only)

Paper published under CIANTEC 2012 Proceedings.

Abstract: The evolving digital media is changing our relationship with the world, as well as the artistic practice and experience. The use of software as a constitutive element of the artwork leads to questioning the level of programming knowledge required to the artist practice. In this paper, we will discuss the interdisciplinary relation between art and
computing by analyzing artworks and code production. Finally, we will comment on our experience at Visuality and Visualization Laboratory, with art and design students employing programming.

The Laboratory of Visuality and Visualization at the School of Fine Arts of the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro (LabVis - EBA) began in 2010 under the direction of Doris Kosminsky, gathering undergraduates of the Bachelor in Visual Communication and Design & Visual Arts in an interdisciplinary approach to research and development of data visualizations. This website is the project's platform to exchange insights, ideas, works and theory concerning artistic data visualization, information design, visual studies, media and visual arts.
