<p>
The School for Poetic Computation is an experimental school in New York that was founded in 2013. Our school supports interdisciplinary study in art, code, hardware and critical theory. It is a place for unlearning and learning.
<BR><BR>
Our programs challenge the capitalistic, heteronormative and patriarchal canon of social and computer sciences. SFPC attracts self-motivated creative thinkers and radical teachers. All participants are treated as collaborators and we formally encourage the power of learners to determine their experience & education. The unique culture of our institution is one based on communal care and solidarity across social differences. This pedagogical space framed in intimacy ideally allows for participants that are LGBTQIA+, Black, Indigenous, and/or Disabled to feel empowered that their ideas are important, necessary and central.
<BR><BR>
<i>Note: Our school has been undergoing significant transformation since 2020.

<h1>Our Pedagogy</h1>
</div>
<div class="grid-2">
<p>
We value the craft necessary to realize an idea, recognizing that every creative practitioner needs space and time to hone their trade. Our school aims to provide a safe haven for you to get acquainted with the craft of coding at your own pace, make it your own, and investigate the space between creative process and craft. This takes conversations with peers and the right push at the right time.
</p>
<p>
SFPC is an opportunity to work intensively with a small group of peers, teachers, and artists to explore questions about the poetics of computation. For us, computation is poetic when technology is used for critical thinking and aesthetic inquiry – a space where logic meets electricity (hardware), math meets language (software) and analytical thinking meets creative experimentation.
</p><p>
We aim to cultivate completely strange, whimsical, and beautiful work – work that is meaningful and not the sorts of things necessarily useful for building a portfolio for finding a job.
</p><p>
This is not a program to get a degree or vocational skills, there are other programs for that. This is a program for self-initiated learners who want to explore new possibilities. This is a program for thinkers in search of a community to realize greater dreams. SFPC is a dynamic possibility space to imagine and cultivate new learning environments with and for each other.
