Welcome to the Creative-Coding-Grad-Spring-2015 wiki! Some setup items before we begin the class (originally based on DM-GY 6063 wiki from R. Luke Dubois, 2014)

1. download and install Processing: http://processing.org
2. download and install git: http://git-scm.com/downloads
3. download a GitHub client. for mac: https://mac.github.com ; for windows: https://windows.github.com
4. go to github.com and make a (free) account: https://github.com/join
5. open up GitHub (the application, not the website). when it configures, sign in with your github.com login info.
6. go to our class GitHub Repository: https://github.com/IDMNYU/Creative-Coding-Grad-Fall-2014
7. on the lower right, click the Clone in Desktop button.
8. GitHub (the application) will pop up and ask you where to save the data. you should then be able to see the files locally, and open them in Processing.
9. whenever you need to download new stuff (e.g. after each class), open up GitHub again, highlight the repository, and select Pull from the Repository menu.
10. try opening the sketches we made in class. see if they make sense. we'll look them over again next week.

Other item's you'll eventually need in this class:

• A standard text editor. I prefer Sublime Text, but any other text editor will do!
• download ofSketch (Mac & Linux only)
• download Arduino
