What is Creative Coding?
Creative coding is the practice of writing code to create expressive, artistic works rather than functional applications. It’s where programming meets art, music, and visual design.
At Clojure Jam, we celebrate music & sound synthesis, generative art, creative data visualization, interactive installations, and explorations of order & chaos. See our Sessions page to learn more about the topics we’re exploring.
Call for Proposals
We’re actively seeking creative coding talks and workshops! Whether you’re working with music synthesis, generative art, data visualization, or any other form of creative expression in Clojure, we want to hear from you.
Important: All speakers commit to writing a Clojure Civitas post documenting their work!
See our Submit Proposal page for full details on topics, formats, and submission guidelines.
Get Involved
