To the "SFPC / Re:coded" wiki! Here you'll find all you need to know about the artists and how to contribute to the project!
Submission deadline --> Tues. Dec 8th (12/8/15)
Inspired by ReCode Project, SFPC ran a course called “Recreating the Past,” in which they investigated the works of pioneering code artists; learning from them by recreating and interpreting their works. When approached by the festival organizers to create an installation, Zach Lieberman and his students were excited to showcase these re-works as an interactive form.
The coded works should follow these guidelines:
- Be in a square format and resized easily without a ton of code-rewrites (IOW use constants like width/height!)
- Coded in oF, Processing, p5.js - Because the final exhibition system is being built in openFrameworks, we prefer works coded in oF.
- Any works in Processing cannot include third-party libraries or anything beyond the built-in functionality of Processing’s environment.
- Include variables that can be changed interactively. In the end, these will end up as GUI sliders or something of that sort, but the details on the format for that are still being formed. Just know that a static, still piece is not enough. It has to change in some way.
- Your work will be credited on project’s webpage. Make sure to send us a link to your site.
- Submitting in oF? Follow the instructions on the github README.
- Submitting in Processing or p5.js? Send it over to lauren@sfpc.io.
We have made a short list of artists whose work we would like to re-interpret, and are seeking submissions of coded works that build on the work of these artists. Artists we love (more info below):

- SFPC ** School for Poetic Computation is an artist run school in New York that was founded in 2013. A small group of students and faculty work closely to explore the intersections of code, design, hardware and theory — focusing especially on artistic intervention. It’s a hybrid of a school, residency and research group. Our motto is: more poetry, less demo sfpc.io | @sfpc |
