Phillip Andrew Lewis and I are offering one day intensive courses for
beginners the AVA in Chattanooga, Tennessee. The course will focus on
introducing data structures and sound synthesis techniques. We will
also show examples of various ways Pure Data is used, methods for
working and troubleshooting in PD, and introduce the PD community.
We will create an adaptable set of related patches, a sort of "tool
box" each student can take away and adapt for future use. AVA is
letting us use of their galleries for to set up and test audio
installations at the end of each day.
This class is designed for people with little or no prior experience.
Computers are provided or you can bring your laptop.
Session 1: Saturday, June 27/ 10am-4pm
Session 2: Sunday, June 28/ 10am-4pm

Hello list,
Sorry in french only.
Premier workshop (4 jours) :
PureData, une introduction
du 28 au 31 juillet 2009
Contenu:
Ce stage est une introduction à PureData dans un contexte de création
visuelle en temps réel, ainsi qu'aux possibilités d'interaction et
d'échange de données sur les réseaux.
Après la révolution du montage vidéo numérique, la nouvelle (r)
évolution est le traitement de la vidéo, de la 3D et des flux de
données en temps réel. Utilisés aussi bien en performance (VJ, Live
Cinema) que dans les arts de la scène (danse, théatre) ou dans les
environnements interactifs, les nouveaux logiciels de traitement en
temps réel sont aussi une autre manière de produire de la vidéo
linéaire, de la 3D ou du son.
Le stage explore un des principaux outils actuels: PureData + GEM,
environnement 'opensource' de programmation visuelle créé par Miller
Puckette. Pd est un équivalent gratuit de MAX/MSP permettant de
nombreuses manipulations en terme de son, d'image, de vidéo, de 3D,
d'interaction en temps réel, mais aussi en terme d'échanges de
données sur les réseaux.
Formateur : Jack/RYBN
Deuxième workshop (4 jours) :
PureData, 3D Temps Réel et modèles physiques
du 3 au 6 août 2009
Contenu:
Durant ce workshop de 4 jours, nous aborderons de manière pratique la
modélisation physique et la synthèse 3D en temps-réel. Les librairies
pmpd et msd pour PureData permettent de simuler des comportements
naturels d'objets simples: cordes, membranes, fluides, sables, ...
Ces librairies seront explorées pour différents usages: filtrage de
signal, contrôle de la synthèse sonore, mais surtout elles seront
employées pour la synthèse 3D en temps-réel dans GEM.
Les participants du workshop apprendront dans un premier temps à
créer puis à manipuler des structures modélisées. Puis des techniques
avancées de dessin et de création graphique seront détaillées pour
représenter les structures développées.
Formateur : Nicolas Montgermont
Conditions de Participation :

Resumen:
La orientación del taller es la integración de conocimientos prácticos de
medios musicales,
electrónicos, informáticos y matemáticos para la formulación de proyectos
estéticos. Los participantes
deberán imaginar un cauce de acción con las herramientas entregadas en cada
módulo, para luego
dirigirlo a una presentación donde podrán debatir y formular alternativas en
torno a las formas de
lógica disponibles para la realización concreta: su estructura, función y
experiencia.
Duración de cada módulo: Cuatro sesiones aplicadas de 90 min.
El método formativo utilizado (esquema CUATRO) consta de 4 sesiones de 90
min. para máximo 4
personas. El expositor guía cada sesión al estudio representativo de la
técnica para luego llevar a la
práctica la aplicación mediante la construcción de una obra.
Módulos:
+ Canto a dos voces con Theremín.
+ Introducción a Sensores Análogos para Interfaces Interactivas.
+ Introducción a Pure Data (Pd).
+ Introducción a Métodos en Música y Video-Performance con Pd.

appearance, with a fully robotic composition for a high-tech take on
the traditional Indonesian instruments
* RESCUED iPODS: Hans-Christoph Steiner and Chris 'the Widget' DiMauro
is saving old mobile devices and PDAs from being junked, by harnassing
open-source software to make them powerful, useful, expressive, fun
tools, toys, and instruments instead
* POCKET ANDROIDS: Peter Kirn shows off a new, in-progress app for
turning Google's open-source Linux platform into a gestural controller
- and for connecting any computer running any operating system for
music, visuals, and interaction via Java and OpenSoundControl
Open hacking and party + time to get close to the instruments and

Overview--Experimental make-workshop with multilayered outcome for
people interested in sound, DIY-biology, microscopy and interaction of
living microorganisms. Knowledge in physical computing, video and sound
processing, electronics and puredata is welcome, but not compulsary.
Description--In this workshop the experiments will take place in
close-up view of microorganisms (e.g. water bears aka tardigrades,
amoebae and collected organisms from urban environments), which appears
to be a world by itself. Maybe due to the scaling and the amplification
of a microscope, but maybe also due to all parameters of imagination
that the microcosmos provokes. Growth and behaviour of these microscopic
animals remind us of our own micro-macro-development. With the image and
the movement of the organisms, the participants are encouraged to
collect inspiration and bridge video and sound to what they experience
with these small "animalcules", as termed by their first observer
Leeuwenhoek in 1677.
The participants will learn how to work with the usb-microscopes and
hack webcams to be used as microscopes, observe the behaviour and motion
of the waterbears and other microorganisms, find sounds from the lab
equipment, hack into electronic devices to integrate into bioelectronic
culture devices and build habitats for the animals. Also they will
discover sounds from the different instrumentation and utilities of the
laboratory. Recycle and compose arrangements for Lab-visual and
Lab-sound scapes and benefit from a cross fertilization between the
whole (scientific) equipment (you can bring your own too!) and an
artistic metaphorical language. The outcome can be a video with a
microscopic soundtrack, a living object with singing waterbears, a
performance with laboratory sounds, or an openLab Hackteria installation.
Material needed--The participant should bring their own laptop/computer,
a webcam with an adjustable lens and some general lab stuff they have
access to.
Material available various labware, glassware, petri-dishes,
usb-microscopes, microorganisms, soldering stations, electronic parts,
arduinos etc..
I'll be teaching a Pd+Arduino+Mapping workshop at the next NIME

If you are not part of the solution, you are part of the problem.
Its a patch from Dan Wilcox, it should be in the patch tracker.
