What if writing code and creating art aren’t as different as we think? From the blank canvas to the final product, both artists and coders follow a journey of exploration and iteration.

Come and join us as we uncover the surprising similarities between the worlds of painting and programming—how creativity, rules, and tools shape both crafts. Could the same principles that guide an artist also guide a developer?

We're thrilled to have Yara Debian as our speaker this year!
