More about the workshop:
WebPd for online “jamming” applications.
Saturday 23rd February 11am-1pm & Sunday 24th February 10am-12.30pm
Level: beginner-intermediate
WebPd is an open-source library written in JavaScript, allowing to run
Pure Data patches on the web.
In this workshop, we will program an online jamming application with
JavaScript and WebPd. This application will consist in a simple web
page, where every user can “jam” with other online users with mouse
clicks, key presses or moving objects – all in sound. Each attendee will
make his own application.
A workflow will be proposed : firstly designing the interaction and the
jamming system, secondly prototyping the sound in Pure Data, and finally
writing the JavaScript code and integrating the sound to the web page.
At the end of the day, we will gather, try everybody’s jamming app and
make some noise.
Attendees will first receive a quick introduction to Pure Data and to
JavaScript. They will learn how to get started with both technologies,
write a simple web page with a dash of JavaScript and make a simple Pure
Data patch. Then, they will learn how to use WebPd to sonify a web page.
Everybody is welcome. People with no previous knowledge in the
technologies will focus on learning, people with JavaScript and/or Pure
Data knowledge will be able to explore deeper the possibilities of WebPd
of making web pages sound better.
Sébastien Piquemal, born in France in 1986, is a computer engineer,
musician and sound designer based in Helsinki. He has been working as a
web developer at Futurice Ltd. since 2010, mostly developing Futurice’s
internal services and IT infrastructure. Sébastien is also studying
sound design in Helsinki Media Lab, and on his free-time, developing
open-source projects such as WebPd – a Javascript library for running
Pure Data patches on the web.
