Call for participation Workshop hello wor(l)d!
---------------------------------------------------------------------
(dutch version below)
The workshop hello wor(l)d! is an introduction to 3 different artistic
approaches to programming, using three different programming styles:
graphical, textual (code poetry) and live coding. The workshop gives a
taste of all three flavours and is meant as inspiration and exploration
for those artists curious about these forms of art. You cannot learn how
to program in 3 days, especially not in 3 different ways, but it is well
worth giving different languages and styles a try.
Day 1: Pure Data by IOhannes Zmölnig
Day 2: Microcodes by Pall Thayer
Day 3: Fluxus by Dave Griffiths and Gabor Papp
No previous programming experience required, as long as you're not
afraid to work in a terminal. Basic experience with any scripting or
markup language (even if it is HTML/CSS) will make it easier to follow.
Date: 2, 3 and 4 March 2010
Time: 10:00 - 17:00
Entrance: free!
Venue: het Paleis (Erlenmeyer zaal), Boterdiep 111, Groningen (NL)
Registration: limited places available. Please send your name, phone
number and CV to signnl(a)gmail.com before February 20 2010. If you are
bringing a laptop, please specify your operating system.
Hello wor(l)d! is part of make art, an international festival focused on
Free/Libre/Open Source Software (FLOSS) and open content in digital
arts. Make art offers performances, presentations, workshops and an
exhibition, focused on the blurred line between art and software
programming.
The fifth edition - chmod +x art - will take place in Groningen (NL),
from the 2nd to the 7th of March 2010.

Oproep tot deelname Workshop hello wor(l)d!
---------------------------------------------------------------------
De workshop hello wor(l)d! is een kennismaking met 3 verschillende
artistieke benaderingen tot programmeren: grafisch, code (poetry), en
live coding. De workshop laat de deelnemer proeven van alle drie de
smaken en is bedoelt als inspiratie en ontdekkingstocht voor kunstenaars
die nieuwsgierig zijn naar deze vormen van kunst. Je kunt niet leren
programmeren in 3 dagen, en al helemaal niet op 3 verschillende
manieren, maar het is heerlijk om te kunnen ervaren hoe de verschillende
talen en stijlen je bevallen.
Dag 1: Pure Data met IOhannes Zmölnig
Dag 2: Microcodes met Pall Thayer
Dag 3: Fluxus met Dave Griffiths en Gabor Papp
Geen programmeerervaring vereist, zolang je maar niet bang bent om in
een terminal te werken. Basis ervaring met wat voor scripting of markup
taal dan ook (al is het HTML/CSS) maakt het makkelijker om alles te
volgen.
Datum: 2, 3 en 4 maart 2010
Tijd: 10:00 - 17:00
Toegang: gratis!
Locatie: het Paleis (Erlenmeyer zaal), Boterdiep 111, Groningen
Registratie: beperkt aantal plaatsen beschikbaar. Stuur je naam,
telefoonnummer en CV naar signnl(a)gmail.com voor 20 februari 2010. Als
je een laptop mee wilt nemen, laat ons dan weten welk operating
system.

LoMus 2010
À la recherche des logiciels libres pour la création sonore et intermedia
Pour sa troisième édition, Lomus 2010 s’adresse à tous ceux qui s’aventurent dans le développement de logiciels libres musicaux ou de logiciels libres qui peuvent contribuer au processus de la création musicale.
En regard d'un des 2 thèmes mis en avant lors de cette édition des JIMs : "L'Œuvre musicale face à l'hétérogène : problématique de la mixité", le concours LoMus encourage plus particulièrement les contributions intégrant ou s'hybridant avec d'autres médias. Ce thème n'est cependant pas restrictif.
Un prix sera remis aux logiciels qui font preuve non seulement d'innovation, mais notamment d'inventivité face aux enjeux actuels de la création musicale.
Calendrier
Appel à soumissions : 4 février 2010
Soumission des logiciels : 1 avril 2010
Notification d'acceptation : 1 mai 2010
Remise du prix lors des JIM : 20 mai 2010
info : concours.afim-asso.org
In search of open-source software for musical and intermedia creation
For its third edition, LoMus 2010 invites music and audio open-source software creators to submit original projects that either directly or indirectly contribute to musical creation.
In regard to one of the 2 themes for JIM's edition : "The musical work and heterogeneity: the problem of mixity", the LoMus contest will particularly encourage sonic/musical softwares integrating or hibridizing with other media. Though, this theme is not restrictive.
A prize will be awarded to open-source sofware that prove to be not only innovatory but also inventive in the present context of music and audio creation.
Calendar
Call for submissions : February 4th 2010
Submission deadline : April 1st 2010
Admission notification : May 1st 2010

As part of the Xenakis Past, Present, and Future festival in New York,
I'll be talking about my piece Solitude, which is somehow inspired by
Xenakis' Mycenae Alpha and the UPIC system. The conference part
starts today and goes thru Saturday. I'll be speaking Saturday at
3:30pm

Pure Data Workshop + FLOSS Manuals Book Sprint
Tusday 23 - Friday 26 February 2010, 17.00-22.00 [GMT +1]
NK Elsenstr. 52 2HH 2 Etage 12059 Berlin, Germany
Contact Derek Holzer for building access: +49 176 2812 5845 /
derek(a)umatic.nl
Or contribute online!
http://en.flossmanuals.net/puredatairc.freenode.net #flossmanuals
Pure Data (or Pd) is a free + open source, real-time graphical
programming environment for audio, video, and graphical processing.
Because all of these types of media are handled as data in the program,
many fascinating opportunities for cross-synthesis between them exist.
Pd is commonly used for live music performance, VeeJaying, sound effects
composition, interfacing with sensors, cameras and robots or even
interacting with websites.
A book sprint brings together a group of writers, editors and artists to
produce a published book within several days. This sprint will combine a
workshop within it, where new users will learn to create basic patches
in Pd, documenting them along the way for the FLOSS Manual. This is an
exciting opportunity both to acquire new skills as well as share them
with others in the form of a book!
This sprint is a long-distance collaboration between FLOSS Manuals, the
Berlin Pure Data users group and ITP/Tisch School of the Arts, New York.
Please bring your own laptop with Pure Data Extended installed. The
workshop is free, with the expectation that participants will contribute
to the FLOSS Manual.

"Question the heroic approach"
Finally, I am making a hidio 0.1 release, after many years in the
works. USB HID programming has great promise, but its also massively
painful. As I recently read on a developer forum, if you are feeling
confident in your programming skills, and want to experience some
serious pain, try getting code working with the Apple HID Manager.
Anyway, enjoy the fruits of this pain:

/...Forget insulation from the cold nagging existential doubt or refuge
in stories comforting the General Intellect; a dark Forest of Things is

/..Eight international writers will work eight hours a day for five days
generating text-prompts, text and edit-software in unrelenting
micro-sessions to create a cadaverous exquisite_code life-novel . Text
will be produced in response to prompts conspired by the writers at the
end of each session. But only after bespoke edit-software has wormed its
way through it, cutting, chewing and spitting gobbets of the text into a
dump from which the life-novel will be elaborated. This edit-worm is
itself interrogated and re-written in scheduled code writing sprints by
the writers. At all times all participants are available for public
scrutiny and interaction, and all writing will be on live display whilst
continuously extruded as hardcopy from line printers.../
/...The event will culminate in a Saturday night exquisite_code LAUNCH
PARTY (7.30 -11.30pm) on 20th February at E:vent Gallery with extracts
of the novel presented to the public through human-machine readings,
performances and detournements made by participants from the week's
accumulated materials. Publication of all code, prompts and final text
will be by way of print-on-demand publication in collaboration with
