( 01 · The course )

Lumrow is a six-module course in drawing with code. You start with a single line in lesson one and finish with a live audio visualiser, and every module ends with a piece you would put on a wall.

Change a number. Watch it draw.

This is a real lesson, running live. Every yellow value in the code is a handle: drag it and the drawing grows again from the first line.

01-6-flow-field.js

// 01.6 Flow fields: every line follows the noise
const scale  =0.0028  // how far you zoom into the noise
const turns  =1.60  // how hard the lines curl
const lines  =2200  // how many lines to draw
const steps  =70  // how long each line runs
const weight =0.8  // stroke width in px
for (let i = 0; i < lines; i++) {
  let [x, y] = randomPoint()
  for (let s = 0; s < steps; s++) {
    const a = noise(x * scale, y * scale) * TAU * turns
    lineTo(x += cos(a), y += sin(a))
  }
  stroke(chalk, weight)

Progress you can see.

Every lesson you finish fills a ring. Every day you open the Lab adds a square. Students say the streak is the reason they finish.

( 06 · How a lesson works )

Watch. Change. Keep.

Lessons are short on purpose. You spend most of your time in the Lab, changing numbers until the picture is yours.

▶

Watch a short lesson

7 to 25 minutes. One idea, built live, with chapters so you can jump back to the part you need.

// 03.4 Attractors

const stars = 3

const pull = 0.90 ← drag me

const count = 1400

const steps = 150

v.add(gravity(p, star, pull))

Change the numbers

Every lesson opens in the Lab. Drag a value, watch the sketch redraw, and write down what surprised you.

Keep it

Save the version you like to your sketchbook. At the end of the module it becomes a finished piece.

( 07 · Teachers )

Taught by people who make this work for a living.

Three instructors, all working artists. Each avatar is drawn by its owner’s own code.

Mara Ellison

Lead instructor

The first time a loop you wrote draws something you did not expect, you are hooked. My job is to get you there by lesson three.

Teo Vance

Instructor, motion and sound

Particles are just dots with a reason to move. Give them good reasons.

A shader is a question you ask every pixel at once. Ask a good one.

( 11 · Questions )

Asked before you enrol.

Still unsure? Write to hello@lumrow.school. A teacher answers, usually the same day.

Do I need to know how to code?

No. Lesson 01.1 starts from an empty canvas, and every lesson has a Lab where you change numbers before you write code. About 60% of each cohort has never programmed before.

What do I need to install?

Nothing. Every lesson runs in the browser, and your sketchbook saves as you go. A laptop from the last six years is plenty.

How long does the course take?

Fourteen hours of lessons across six modules. Self-paced students usually finish in six to eight weeks; cohorts run for six weeks with one live session a week.

Self-paced or cohort?

Self-paced gets you every lesson, the Lab and the sketchbook for life. Cohort adds six live critiques, written feedback on every project from an instructor and a private channel with about 40 classmates.

Can I sell what I make?

Yes. Everything you make in the course is yours, including prints, NFTs and client work. We only ask that you do not resell the lesson code as a course.

What if it is not for me?

Watch the first two modules. If it is not clicking, email us within 30 days and we refund you in full, no questions.

Do you do team or student pricing?

Teams of five or more get the Team plan. Students and people between jobs can ask for a 40% scholarship seat; we keep five per cohort.

Is there a certificate?

Cohort students who finish all six projects get a certificate and a page in the student gallery.
