NODE+CODE is a local lecture and meetup series in Frankfurt, Germany.
The event series invites and connects artists, designers and creative coders to share their practice, get inspired and discuss their practical challenges within a local community.
Stay tuned via meetup, facebook or our newsletter!
NODE+CODE emerged from the creative coding communities of VVVV, Processing and related frameworks. Since late 2011, we regularly invite artists, thinkers, hackers to present their works. In 2014, a series of editions revolved around the theme of “embodiment” in technology, code, digital art.
The upcoming editions in 2023 will present critical and creative perspectives on the most recent technological developments and their application in artistic, design and coding projects. In the evening, our guests will share insights into their processes and be open for all your questions. The following day, they will run a workshop to share more hands-on knowledge.
NODE+CODE takes place in cooperation with different partners like Wirtschaftsförderung Frankfurt, Crespo Foundation, basis Frankfurt, Künstler*innenhaus Mousonturm, MESO Digital Interiors, University of Applied Sciences Mainz, Goethe University Frankfurt.
In 2023, the series is funded by the Hessian Ministry of Economics, Energy, Transport and Housing.
