This week in lab, we add in the last big layer of digital fabrication: code. We will be introducing Processing and using our homemade tangible user interface tables to discuss some higher-level programming concepts. We will differentiate stations this week, with one group of beginners and another of people with more programming experience.

If you are the sort of person who likes to work through things at your own pace ahead of time (especially if code is new for you), we recommend playing the Hospitals game ahead of time (you'll need Processing) and then reading the annotated source code.
