Creative Coding: Group 15 Case Studies
By Beatrice Curti, Emanuele Leonardi and Matteo Tarda.
Interactive portfolio website (Robin Payot portfolio)
This is the personal webpage of the designer and programmer Robin Payot, it’s interesting to see his use of code to show his works and enhance the user experience of the website. We can see how the use of creative code can make what could be a boring slideshow of works and case studies a nice experience to explore over and over again.
Google’s neural network (Quick, draw!)
Google built a game based on machine learning technology. It’s called Quick, Draw!: the user has 20 seconds to sketch an item randomly chosen by the algorithm. While you’re drawing, a neural network tries to guess the item through your lines. The network is capable of learning from each sketch and improve its knowledge.
Nostalgic innovation in web design (AWGE, a creative agency founded by A$AP Rocky)
Nostalgic because this website traces the visual imaginary of pixel art, characteristic of old video games. Innovative because it puts into practice a sequence of very persuasive interactions that make the user engagement more incisive and the web navigation more effective.
Awgeshit.com is a fascinating and peculiar website designed by a popular american rapper, A$AP ROCKY, and his staff. Its particularity is the multiple usefulness. In fact it reveals not only one purpose, but many purposes: from publicity to commerce, from interaction design to visual communication.
