who are we?

The Creative Coding Bookclub is a new event, organised by Mickey and Luis, in which we aim to actively work our way through writings that inspire the reader with practical coding challenges, while sharing our journey online and in-person.

This 2025 we started "The Nature of Code" (2024) by Daniel Shiffman.

This event is for anyone who is curious about creative coding - whether you are a beginner or a seasoned developer.

If you're a beginner and you follow along, you will gain practice with fundamentals that will prove useful in your future coding endeavours, and if you're an experienced developer this is a chance to recap some theory and a great opportunity to help others.

Even if you've never written a line of code, as long as you're motivated enough to put the time and effort you can make it!

Future events will take place at the Borough Road Gallery, part of London South Bank University, which kindly agreed to host us on a regular basis.
