Showreel: 128KB – A Creative Coding Workshop at HEAD Genève
What happens when you confront a talented group of creative minds with a set of technical limitations within which they are supposed to come up with an original thought, an idea of their own?

I had the great honor of working on this question with about ten master’s students at the renowned HEAD Genève. Basically, the parameters here were perfect: we were able to work together intensively for a whole week. The students already had experience with programming, which meant that the whole course flowed smoothly.
The 128KB Challenge I developed, the accompanying website with basic social media functions – everything worked together perfectly.
I had great conversations and returned home feeling absolutely blessed and inspired.
A big thank you to Alexia Mathieu and Pablo Bellon and to all the participants.
I hope we can do it again!
