Hi there everybody,
My friend just told me to give a workshop about Pd here in Indonesia. Can anybody suggests what kind of material I should present? Initially I want to give 2 sessions in2 meetings, the first meeting will discuss the basic of Pd, while giving a hands-on practice on making some simple instruments, while on the second meeting I will discuss the visual side of Pd, such as GEM, pdp and pidip. But, can anybody give more suggestion about what to present? I suspect that this kind of workshop is the first in Indonesia, so I just want to give everybody a good impression on this powerful software.
Thank you very much
a really good way to practically demonstrate PD is to build a simple patch in front of people. maybe practice building that patch a couple of times before you do the presentation.
Yes, definitely, the way I teach now is have everyone in the workshop
build a patch at the same time as I bulid it on the main screen.
Then I go around and help everyone get it working. Then they all get
it working at the end.
There are lots of materials you can use, here are two good resources: http://puredata.info/docs/workshops http://en.flossmanuals.net/puredata
I attached my favorite Pd hello world patch, it is a very simple ring
modulator on your voice.

When I have been involved with beginning level workshops for both Processing and PD the approach Hans and hard off suggest is definitely the best. Miller taught a workshop here a while ago where he had the students build several small patches, each subsequent patch used some part of the previous as a starting point so students got some sense of continuity and learned a method by which they could continue to work after the class - it gave them a small toolbox to work with later. Golan Levin and Casey Reas each do the something similar to introduce Processing.
