Google collaborated with the Barbican to create an art/design competition in which digital artists use code to produce digital art installations.

I have used GIMP for years. It is a really powerful image program. But it does have a learning curve, that is well worth climbing. From their website: " It is a freely distributed program for such tasks as photo retouching, image composition and image authoring. It has many capabilities. It can be used as a simple paint program, an expert quality photo retouching program, an online batch processing system, a mass production image renderer, an image format converter, etc. GIMP is expandable and extensible. It is designed to be augmented with plug-ins and extensions to do just about anything. The advanced scripting interface allows everything from the simplest task to the most complex image manipulation procedures to be easily scripted. GIMP is written and developed under X11 on UNIX platforms. But basically the same code also runs on MS Windows and Mac OS X."

Interesting, I actually have this on my computer and never paid any attention to it...I will now!
