Creative programming- creating with a computer language: Enrico Zimuel at TEDxCrocettaSalon

Enrico Zimuel is a italian software engineer that works in the R&D Department of Zend Technologies, the PHP Company in California (USA), he is also the co-founder of the PHP User Group of Turin (Italy). In his talk "Creative programming, the art to create using a computer language" he says how creativity is important in programming and the different ways of capturing non-mathematical behaviour in order to translate it in programming later on.
In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)

A really interesting talk about coding and creativity. Also he teaches very well :)

Enjoyed this a lot. Will share it with my students. My first computer was the Vic-20. Old school. :-)

I just discovered couple of fun sites...Thank you:-)

[@tourdeNoh]

omg...i just came to watch this being doubt of how creative the technology can be..but when i see the dance at 18:00, it's such a work! it really made one different piece of art aside from its original dance performance

[@choozewizely61]

I readz the manualz too

[@Shmannel]

Who hasn't gotten tired of python and made another language interpreter out of it complete with virtual frame and even alu

[@Thebasicmaker]

I did once in basic.. in a morse code teaching program I programmed a kind of script language to create a game to simulate a ship that was sinking and all the messages sent from it and other ships close by and the player had to save the day whit his ship!

However, computers cannot generate truly random numbers.

[@ladagang]

+Anthony Danna ofc they can

[@gasquakestudios]

+Dericans500 No... they really can't. It's called pseudo random number generation.

[@joseluislopezlopez4492]

Maybe a quantum computer can

[@Thebasicmaker]

I would use a noise generator to create random numbers...but I think some tecnician should compensate for temperature changes on a semiconductor to get a serie of values indipendently from temperature

[@Thebasicmaker]

M'I the only one who hate blinking or bar cursors?!

[@Thebasicmaker]

We all should go back to B.A.S.I.C!
