Processing: Programming Instead of Drawing

Abstract: The following paper essentially focuses on the innovative use of an open-source programming language, called 'Processing', in the architecture curriculum and the development of a line of teaching beginning with Processing and ending with object-oriented programming in Java. This represents one creative possibility through which students are able to overcome the typically difficult step of learning a programming language and simultaneously learn how to apply it as a design tool.

“…The training is designed as an intensive course lasting 18 hours and distributed into five sessions. A short duration is proposed, on the one hand, to test the steep learning curve of the language (Fricker, Wartmann, & Hovestadt, 2008), and on the other hand, to make it more comfortable and accessible to architecture students, usually immersed in a dynamic of hard and constant work. Each student is followed closely; therefore, the maximum number of students is set to 10.…”

“…Teachers who have tested it in their classrooms highlight its steep learning curve and the speed at which students can program their first designs shortly after beginning the course (Fricker, Wartmann, & Hovestadt, 2008). Because Processing is a simplified Java language with visual results that facilitate learning its functions -e.g.…”

“…Simple image processing can be done in any programming language. We choose the Processing language [14] for several reasons: For example, it is the PC counterpart of the Wiring language used for programming Arduino boards, so it has a very simple structure and if the students have some experience with Arduino for example from the lab, the usage of the Processing language is very easy for them. What is also important is the fact that Processing is cross-platform: It is available for Windows, Linux-based systems, Mac OS and can be even run in the web browser.…”
