Historical context & research account

Processing makes drawing, interaction and program structure accessible within a creative-coding environment. Although not AI, it becomes important infrastructure for generative art in the 2000s. The master relates its culture of programmable visual practice to later use of notebooks, node workflows and prompt scripting.
