Did any other old timer like me get reminded of Creative Computing magazine?

Am I just supposed to know what "creative coding" is? It is not defined anywhere on the page. What specifically distinguishes "creative coding" from just "coding"?

Creative coding is a type of computer programming in which the goal is to create something expressive instead of something functional.

Anyone know what "expressive" means here?

Also, you could have provided a link to the wikipedia article this is from.

How sad. "Creative coding" was supposed to be one of the last respites we programmers had from the sloppotron.

That’s disappointing. I’ll give that a miss then.

if you open up the pdf it actually says written with AI...and author's 2 decades of experience with creative coding. i feel like it's a pretty fair disclaimer
