*Open Up Workshop: Projects for the digital facade of Medialab-Prado**
**February **9 - 23, 2010
*Venue: *Medialab-Prado* in Madrid (Spain)
Open Up has just started! About 70 artists, designers, architects,
programmers and many other interested people from all over the world are
already working in this exciting workshop to create contents for the
first digital facade for artistic purposes of Madrid, a 150m2 and 27.000
LEDs (pixels) screen.
In this event 7 projects selected through an international open call
will be collaboratively developed within this next 2 weeks.
The goal of this project production workshop is to explore the
relationship with the urban space by opening production processes
through different citizen participation strategies. Selected projects
are being developed with the aid of tutors and technical assistants such
as *Jordi Claramonte*, *Chandler McWilliams*, *Casey Reas, **Víctor
Viña*,* Chris Sugrue *and *Massimo Avvisati*.
The programme includes theoretical activities on *February **9**, **10
and**** 16*, with lectures by tutors and lecturers such as *Erkki
Huhtamo* and *Jennifer Steimkamp*. You can follow all lectures and
project presentations through *live streaming*.
We have just created a new experience to document the process through a
*blog* to spread the contents generated during the workshop, using
social networks, video platforms, feeds, microblogging, etc.

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

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.
