Pure Data (or Pd) is a free + open source, real-time graphical
programming environment for audio, video, and graphical processing.
Because all of these types of media are handled as data in the
program, many fascinating opportunities for cross-synthesis between
them exist. Pd is commonly used for live music performance,
VeeJaying, sound effects composition, interfacing with sensors,
cameras and robots or even interacting with websites.

A book sprint brings together a group of writers, editors and
artists to produce a published book within several days. This sprint
will combine a workshop within it, where new users will learn to
create basic patches in Pd, documenting them along the way for the
FLOSS Manual. This is an exciting opportunity both to acquire new
skills as well as share them with others in the form of a book!

This sprint is a long-distance collaboration between FLOSS Manuals,
the Berlin Pure Data users group and ITP/Tisch School of the Arts,
New York.

Please bring your own laptop with Pure Data Extended installed. The
workshop is free, with the expectation that participants will
contribute to the FLOSS Manual.
