Make Code You Can Touch

Description:

Can coding enhance human imagination? During this session, you will learn about the concept of generative design and how and why humans are leveraging advanced computing to make things like art, buildings, and products. You will make your computational thinking visible through analyzing, creating, and remixing interesting algorithm components using Tinkercad Codeblocks. You will also learn how to engage young people in a discussion about the impact of automation on society.
