Hello Pd-user,
We are Thomas Thiery and Pierce Warnecke and we are coming to Berlin in september (3 - 7) for gigs and for the project Blank Pages.
We have a projet called Blank Pages (see bellow for details) and we would like to organize a session on sunday the 6 of september in Berlin. We are looking for a place in Berlin and once thats done we'll recruit participants. If you are interested by the project and think you can spare some time/info to help us to find a place that would really be great.
Thanks in advance!

The project, "Blank Pages" or "Pages Blanches"
This project is based on a score that leads to the meeting and the improvisation of musicians, video artists and programmers (Max/MSP, Puredata).
The "Blank pages" score, describes the situation in 4 points: 1- Each participant has to use one of the two programming language written by Miller Puckette, Pure Data or Max/MSP. 2- The session length is fixed to 60 min. 3- Participants need to start a session with an empty programming page. 4- It is strictly forbidden to load or recall any program during the session.
Each participant has a computer and one of the mentioned applications, and elaborates a program that will make sound and/or video. Max/MSP and Pure Data programming languages permit to write and modify applications in a live situation, while continuing to work on the application itself, therefore one can code and immediately listen to this code result. There are no links between the computers, the participants have to listen and watch the others in order to play together. With the score and the four instructions, the listening is stimulated, and the quality of the audio-visual production becomes everyone's responsibility.
Cheers Thomas and Pierce
