Physical Computing Workshop with Eva Sjuve
The workshop is aimed at artists and musicians who are interested in physical interaction with the computer, a way to interact, by not using the keyboard and the mouse. In the workshop we use a microcontroller, BasicX-24, programming it using Basic language, and use it as a tool for interaction with various kinds of sensors. The workshop is basic, no programming or knowledge in electronics is necessary, but preferred.
To attend the workshop is free, the participant has to pay for their own travel and lodging to Bergen, Norway. The participants will be able to keep their project from the workshop.
To participate or for more info send an email to: eva@bek.no And include a motivation to participate in the workshop.

This workshop is aimed at beginners and will include installation of PD/GEM, serial control from a microcontroller, building of a basic sound patch and introduction to GEM (an OpenGL and video extension for Pd)
Pure Data is a free software and can be used on Mac OSX, Linux, Windows 32 http://pure-data.iem.at/about/ http://www-crca.ucsd.edu/~msp/software.html
