Making practical designs with Pure Data in a 5, 2 or 3-day workshop
PD
Pure Data (or PD) is a visual programming language for the creation of interactive computer music, video and multimedia works. It has become a pioneering application in the contemporary art field.
This workshop is an opportunity for video makers, musicians, artists and designers to learn how to process and organize image, sounds and video and how to use the networking possibilities of Pure Data. Participants work on their own Pure Data sound or video project.
WORKSHOP APPROACH
During an introductory 2-day workshop (25 | 26 June) participants will learn the basics of using PD and of manipulating video, images and sound. In the 2nd workshop (27 | 28 | 29 June) you will get more in-depth knowledge and work for 3 days on your own PureData sound or video project. It is a 5-day workshop, but depending on your experience and preferences it is possible only to follow the introductory workshop or only the in-depth workshop.
TRAINER
Koray Tahiroglu from Turkey / Finland, is a very experienced 'PD'er', connected to the Media Lab of the University of Art & Design in Helsinki. Koray gives PureData workshops all over Europe. Technical people will assist him and help participants through the design process.
