33 year-old generalist developer working towards a career change into the tech world with an interested in software, the web, minimalism, and acoustics/dsp.
Creative coding is using code to create things that could be called expressive rather than functional. As a visual artist, the obvious place to start would be to use HTML and CSS, and, instead of making pseudo-commerical applications, work on making art and designs. This will help you start to think "digitally".
With Ruby it will get more complicated, but once you have a bit of a handle on the fundamentals you could look at libraries like gosu or mottsu which will help you make interactive graphics / games. If you have musical interests, Sonic Pi is a great platform that is written in Ruby and provides a developer experience similar to Ruby.
