?Ich bin ein Objekt?: Learning Pure Data as a Language
DATES: 13-14 November 2010 12:00-17:00
COST: EUR 35
LOCATION: NK, Elsenstr. 52/2.Hinterhaus Etage 2

Pure Data (or Pd) is a real-time graphical programming environment for
audio, video, and graphical processing. This introductory workshop is
ideal for new users of Pure Data who are finding the ?vocabulary? and
?grammar? difficult to grasp. We will learn Pure Data as one would
learn any other language, taking a series of very basic examples from
the Pure Data FLOSS Manual. This workshop gives a good starting point
for more advanced Pd workshops, or participation in the Berlin Pure
Data users? group. The workshop will be taught in English ;-)
Participation is limited to 12 participants.
Registration: Pre-registration is required and can be done by sending
an email to info(a)nkprojekt.de

Neanderthal Electronics at your Fingertips
DATES: 27-28 November 12:00-17:00 / Presentation 28 November 18:00
COST: EUR 35 + EUR 10 materials fee
LOCATION: NK, Elsenstr. 52/2.Hinterhaus Etage 2
12059 Berlin Neukölln
Learn how to use simple objects from our modern environment
(resistors, capacitors, transistors, LEDs, integrated circuit chips?)
to design and build your own personal, touch-activated primitive noise
synthesizer. Each is a tiny world of its own, using primitive analog
computers in combination with feedback, sensors and audio inputs to
create a unique sound. Even from the same plan, no two are alike!
Participants should bring some sort of box, container or other
creative enclosure to put their circuit inside of?past workshops have
seen synthesizers made in suitcases, flashlights, film cans, coconuts,
children?s toys, super 8 cameras, cigar boxes, knaackebrod, books and
hand-sewn masks. Check the videos on the Macumbista website for some
ideas and inspiration. This workshop will end in a free public
presentation of the instruments you have created, invite your friends!
Participation is limited to 12 participants.

Now Splice the Tape: Working with Soundfiles in Pure Data
DATES: 04-05 December 12:00-17:00 / Presentation 05 December 18:00
COST: EUR 35
LOCATION: NK, Elsenstr. 52/2.Hinterhaus Etage 2
12059 Berlin Neukölln
Manipulating recorded soundfiles is one of Pure Data?s most powerful
features. However, the process of doing this remains one of the most
confusing tasks for newcomers. During this two day workshop, we will
cover the basics of loading soundfiles to tables, live capturing and
looping, adjusting tempo and pitch, changing the looping, starting and
stopping points of your playback and an introduction to granular
synthesis. We will also examine ParticleChamber as an example of a
full-fledged soundfile manipulation application built entirely with
Pd. Some previous experience with Pd and/or participation in the ?Ich
bin ein Objekt? workshop is recommended. This workshop will end in a
free public presentation of the instruments you have created, invite
your friends!
Participation is limited to 12 participants.

Ottawa's Mini-Maker Faire
12 – 6PM
November 6th and 7th, 2010
2 Daly Ave.
Free
"Considering that some of the greatest leaps forward in American
technological history have been scrappy homebrews (Apple Computer was a
literal garage startup), it's really kind of exciting to think that, given
its explosive growth, the Maker Faire might well help along an invention
or two that's truly important." – Advertising Age
The innovation laced through the capital region is impressive, and this
first ever Mini-Maker Faire is a chance to connect creative people from
all over our region in a celebration of the DIY spirit. A Mini-Maker Faire
brings together families and individuals who celebrate Arts, Crafts,
Engineering, Food, Music, Sustainability, and Science and those who
embrace the Do-It-Yourself (DIY) spirit. At Maker Faire, the focus is on
the process of making – not just the finished product.
The real story here is the curiosity, vibrancy, and passion of the Makers
themselves, the people who comprise the rapidly emerging DIY category.
Scientists, homemakers, students, automotive enthusiasts, software
developers, musicians, crafters of all stripes: individuals and
communities of people drawn together by a common delight in the magic of
tinkering, hacking, creating, and reusing materials and technologies.

Submission Deadline: October 8th, 2010
Details and submission procedure: http://www.ircam.fr/875.html?L=1

We encourage artists, composers and musicians who wish to carry
experimental research related to their artistic endeavors along with
researchers and computer musicians at Ircam. Submission is online and
open to all participants regardless of age or nationality. Each
project will be evaluated by a panel of experts including researchers,
artists and computer musicians. Upon nomination, each laureate will be
granted a residency at Ircam during a specific period (three to six
months) and in association with a team/project at Ircam. In addition,
laureates receive an equivalent of 1200 Euros per month to cover
expenses in France.

Date limite de candidature: 8 Octobre 2010
Plus d'information et procédure de candidature:
http://www.ircam.fr/875.html
L’Ircam (Institut de recherche et coordination acoustique/musique)
offre un environnement unique pour l’expérimentation, permettant aux
compositeurs d’étendre leur expérience musicale et de repenser leur
pratique à travers les concepts et idées liés aux développements des
nouvelles technologies les plus récentes. Ces technologies sont le
résultat des défis posés aussi bien par les impulsions artistiques que
par les nouveaux domaines de recherche explorés par les équipes
scientifiques. À l’Ircam, ce processus interactif est appelé
“Recherche musicale”.
La deuxième édition du programme de résidences de recherche musicale
est ouverte aux artistes internationaux, sans condition d’âge ou de
nationalité, qui souhaitent conduire un projet de recherche musicale
en bénéficiant des facilités matérielles proposées à l’Ircam et de la
richesse de son environnement de recherche. Les candidats seront
choisis selon un processus de sélection faisant appel à l’expertise de
chercheurs et artistes internationaux. Les lauréats vont bénéficier
d'une résidence à l’Ircam pour une durée de trois ou six mois en lien
étroit avec les équipes de recherche de l’Ircam. Le candidat recevra
une indemnité forfaitaire de l'ordre 1200 euros par mois pour couvrir
ses frais pendant sa résidence en France.

Hi list,
just to share this abstraction I'm using in my recent patches.
Mediagrid is a graphical file chooser.
It is based on videogrid external from Sergi Lario and Lluis Gomez i Bigorda.
Apart to be an abstraction and not an external, the main difference is
that mediagrid is cross-platform and you can manage audio file also
and no just video or images.
Here more infos and download:

Dear all,
I just published some documentation regarding my latest work The invisible
suns project.
"Can the trading market patterns be represented in a perceptually weighted
experience?
Invisible Suns is an autonomous system that every day analyzes the
historical stock prices of a variable selection of major corporations,
compresses in few minutes over 8 years of economic transactions and
eventually produces a generative and self-organizing audiovisual datascape."
Further information at
http://marcodonnarumma.com/works/the-invisible-suns-project/
An audio visual real time recording of an earlier output of the system can
be view on-line at http://vimeo.com/15050311.
It is recommended to view the video in full HD, otherwise relevant details
of the work would be lost.
Developed in Pure Data, bash scripts, Linux OS.
Feedbacks are food for thoughts.
Thanks,
Best wishes,

Its done and available for download! With this release, we focused on
fixing lots of bugs with the GUI and Graph-On-Parent. There are still
some odd things of course, but we have rewritten the GUI from scratch
for 0.43 so we wanted to make sure we got a stable release out before
the really major changes that are upcoming. There are of course many
bug fixes and additions since 0.41.4, here are some highlights:
* pd~ object lets you run a patch on multiple CPUs
* Windows builds should be much more stable
* fixed lots of Graph-On-Parent GUI bugs
* lots of work on supporting user-installed libraries
* complete 64-bit support for GNU/Linux
* working 64-bit builds for Mac OS X and Windows
* full support for Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard (32-bit)
* a brand new Help Browser that shows all installed libraries
For more details, check the release notes:
