~~The Execution of algorithms~~ and programs is not ~~restricted to solicium chops at all~~.

Algorithms and programs are not ony working on computers.

Many processes in nature follow an inherent logic that we want to unveil. In a playful setting we discover how things and beings in our immediate environment interact and exchange matter, signals, energy and information.

Many processes in nature follow an inherent logic that we want to unveil. In a playful setting we discover how things and beings in our immediate environment behave, interact and exchange matter, signals, energy and information.

* What happens if we interpret natural arrangements as code and execute them

* Where does nature lend itself to a description in terms of computer science, and where does it bristle?

* How do hybrid systems work, which interfaces are available and what's the role of humans within those systems?

These questions are adressed in a hands-on workshop

(a dish of code) which conveys solid foundations of programming. We will translate algorithms into natural arrangements, but also write computer programs, that interact with nature and evaluate it. Since we primarily evaluate nature using visual sensors, we will incidentially learn the foundations of image processing and recognition.

In the ''eval(nature)'' discourse we follow up on those questions and get to know historic and contemporary works that cover this domain.<br>

A fundamental part of the module are the workshops titled ''"A Drop of Paint"'' and ''"A Dish of Code"''

In those two workshops hands-on skills in liquid and solid programming will be taught.

''A Drop of Paint'' shows hands-on artistic research using the example of water droplets on a glass pane. In dialog with a scientist, we observe patterns and laws of the experiment (surface tension, concentration of soluables) and transform them into works of generative design.
