ART AND CODE featured intensive three-hour workshops, taught by leading developers and authors, in a variety of programming environments. Some workshops were intended for more advanced users, but many were introductory in nature and were suited for all ages. Some workshops were specifically for teens and ‘tweens! Throughout the weekend were a variety of related events including an exhibition of computational art, a festival of abstract film, an open-mic Dorkbot (show-and-tell / salon) for Art && Code attendees, and plenty of social meals.
