+== Processing Curves ==
+=== About ===
+We will get to know interfaces for creating curves, learn how to store them, and how to output them
+=== Goals ===
+* Learn how to use Libraries in Processing
+* Learn how to read and write strings to files
+* Formats for Motion Capture (BVH) and Graffiti (GML)
+* Using input devices such as a Graphic Tablet, Tracking-System, etc. to create curves
+* Use Processing to output curves in the visual domain
+* Use Spacial Synthesizers such as Zirkonium and Iannix to output curves in the auditory domain

+== Transforming Curves ==
+=== About ===
+In this lecture we will learn how to transform curves programatically.
+* '''Rewriting Curves''' — In the 1st part we learn how to create space filling curves and meanders with the help of rewriting systems.
+* '''Remapping Curves''' — In the 2nd part we take curves to higher dimension and learn how to map points on a line to the plane (and back).
+=== Goals ===
+* Basics of Fractal Geometry
+* Learn to work  with data structures, arrays and vectors
+* Learn how to design Lindenmayer-Systems
+* Learn how to design Remapping-Systems
+=== Literature ===
+{{note|There is a most excellent book, titled '''Brain-Filling Curves: A Fractal Bestiary''' by Jeffrey Ventrella.<br>
+Don't miss it. It's the best and most exciting book on spacefilling curves out there!}}
