An essential guide for teaching and learning computational art and design: exercises, assignments, interviews, and more than 170 illustrations of creative work. There are two common ways of understanding the field of ‘computational design’. First, it can be defined as a systematic way of thinking about or conceptualising the design process. This could be understood as a rigorous reasoning method founded in the timeless fields of mathematics and logic. The second definition of computational design encapsulates the hardware, software and systems that support the act of designing. These have developed rapidly over time to respond to the needs of designers. The scope of this book encompasses both of these definitions of computational design, as well as the overlap or interdependency between them. This is a particularly interesting way of approaching the topic of computational design, because it emphasises the interactions between a seemingly stable body of knowledge on the one hand, and an increasingly dynamic technological environment on the other.
