[PD] 5Day Pure Data Workshop --- London, June!
>>>Please forward to anyone you think may be interested... A10Lab presents a 5 Day Pure Data Workshop lead by Luca Carrubba and Oscar Martin. CRAZY GENERATIVE A/V MACHINES The aim of this workshop is to learn simple programming strategies for the creation of audio/video software tools for live performances. Generative or interactive pieces of software that let artists create and control video streams and audio processing in real time. During the workshop we will use puredata, a free (as a bird and as a beer) graphical programming language particularly focused on the processing of audio and video data in real time. Puredata is a tool for artists who want to experiment with a different creation pattern, with a freedom to build from scratch their own instruments. You don’t need to be a programmer to begin to build your tool. In 5 the days long workshop you will learn the basics of the language, how to manipulate or create a video and how to play with audio. At the end of the workshop all the participants will take part in a performance event open to the public. >From Monday 21st June to Friday 25th June 2010. 3 hours a day. 7pm - 10pm. Saturday 26th June --- Live performance event with invited performers and all participants from the workshop!!! Book now! Participation is £100 and limited to 20 people.

Based its action on certain keywords like DIY (do it yourself), knowledge sharing, accessibility, recycling and social movements.

A sound explorer, he bases his work on the deconstruction of field recordings and the creative use of technology errors. Luthier-digital with a “pure data” environment, which he uses to develop his own experimental tools for processing and real time algorithmic-generative composition.

[PD] A10Lab - Live Media and FLOSS Workshop - Book Now!
A10Lab presents: Live Media and FLOSS* Extended Production Seminary with Marco Donnarumma Monday 26th - Friday 30th July 17:30-22:30 daily @ C4CC, 16 Acton Street, London, WC1X 9NG £80 pp The workshop is limited to 20 participants. Please register by sending an email to i...@a10lab.com or ryan-jor...@hotmail.co.uk with the subject heading “LiveMedia and FLOSS workshop”. Full information here http://www.crealab.info/digitalab/?p=393 *Free/Libre Open Source Software In-depth Theoretical and practical audiovisual live performance seminary using FLOSS. Pure Data audiovisual real-time processing, tricks and tips to create your own performance tool. Description The seminary consists of four parts. During the introduction the participants acquire a basic theoretical knowledge about Live Media. The introduction is extended through a review of selected audiovisual works in order to explore and analyse the potential of the audiovisual research. Therefore participants are introduced to the concept of FLOSS (Free/Libre Open Source Software), they familiarize with few FLOSS software as they understand its practical and theoretical keystones. In the second part participants learn the meaning of real-time audio-video data processing reviewing the most common production tools. Eventually they deal with the process of an audiovisual performance pre-production using FLOSS: from brainstorming and concept design, through planning of the audiovisual format, to the collection of support materials such as texts, tutorials, and the drawing of sketches representing the logic structure of data processing. The third part focus on Pure Data graphical programming environment. Participants learn to communicate with Pd and how to surf through the audio and visual processing libraries. They build basic processing structures and discover tricks and tips to create their own performance tool. For the last part the work group is split in smaller groups. Through practical individual exercises participants acquire the technical know-how about the creation/collection of moving images and sonic events within the Pure Data graphical programming environment, thus they develop an original software, following the standard realisation steps: beta-testing; analysis of errors and its correction; and final testing during a collective jam performance. Aim The seminary seeks to give the participants who don't have previous experience in programming and Live Media practice the needed theoretical and practical knowledge and skills to feel comfortable within the FLOSS creation environment. The classes' aim is to make the participants able to understand and assimilate the diverse passages of the creation process of software ad-hoc in order to be independent during the planning and development of a FLOSS project (musical, audiovisual, multi-media or theatre pieces) using the audiovisual language. Who's it for Musicians, producers, live visualists, film-makers, programmers, sound designers or passionates of digital arts or electronic music and experimentation who want to enhance and extend their skills and tools will find this seminary inspirational and fundamental for the further development of their works and creative ideas, free from the limitations of user-friendly and proprietary software. No previous programming experience is needed. What to bring Participants are invited to bring their laptops and encouraged to bring musical instruments, cameras, photo cameras, webcam, microphones, sensors, MIDI devices and fresh, unusual ideas!
