"I said a hip hop,
Hippie to the hippie,
The hip, hip a hop, and you don't stop, a rock it
To the bang bang boogie, say, up jump the boogie,
To the rhythm of the boogie, the beat."

IRCAM Musical assistant, Free Software visionary and poet.

permanent installation at graz during the pd_convention~04.

                                                       RULES
                                   > respect or burn in hell
------------------------------------------------------------

- patch type : fully automated/scheduled/generative NO
	       INTERACTIVITY

- content    : audio AND video (choose your favourite weapon
               PDP/PiDiP,  Gem, Framestein, GridFlow). Note:
               After the joe.pd incident we now accept also
               patches proposing canvas animations and other
	       weirdo graphical issues :)

- size       : patch(es) + extra material must NOT exceed
               128kB UNCOMPRESSED !!! (Bytes not bits....)

- externals  : ONLY the ones from CVS

- application: anyone can apply, individual and teams AND
               several times !!!

- net        : the use of internet is tolerated as long as
               you don't use [shell] to download 300MB of
               porn files. (mmm? well let's say that one 
               could use [shell]+some perl to grab stuff 
               from google, but on the other hand it would
               be forbidden to use [shell]+wget to grab from
               your www/ftp all the material you needed for
               your patch that woud not fit in 128kB).

- CPU/GPU    : no real limitations, just consider that if
               your patch takes 100% of the CPU of your
               brand new box you just bought to play DoomIII
               then you should be aware that some people
               could have trouble to run your patch.

- OS         : use your own.

- theme/style: no theme or style, everything is most welcome
               from oldskool flexiscolls and soundchip
               trackers to pure noise pf-ish abstractions.

- deadline   : you can start to send your patch(es) the 1st
               of september until the 25th of september to
               gangbang@goto10.org, then all the patches will
               be published on the PD Trigger Gang Bang
               section of http://goto10.org the 27th.
