Noise Kitchen Livecoding workshop

We at Noise Kitchen are excited to host Luis Tamagnini aka unexCoder at a workshop on Modular Livecoding. Algorithmic control of modular synthesizers with Supercollider.

He is a composer and computer artist from Argentina. He uses programming languages to develop and build hybrid performance systems that combine live coded algorithms with analog devices and computer generated graphics. His audiovisual pieces push the viewer into a deep abstract volumetric aural and visual experience. He has performed in festivals and concerts in Argentina, Spain, Germany, France and Netherlands.

The workshop explores the encounter between two universes as vast as they are usually isolated from each other. Sound design with modular analog systems dates back to the 60's and the experimental processes that motivated the origin of the synthesizer industry. At the same time, the development of computers and algorithmic thinking itself gave rise to a whole series of languages and techniques that we know today as part of what we call "computer music". These ecosystems, with a priori antagonistic principles, can be integrated into an hybrid, homogeneous and effective system.

In this course, we will learn to implement algorithms in Supercollider, a very powerful and open source music computing language. We will then use the generated signals to control and extend the functionality of a modular synthesizer to build a powerful hybrid digital / analog performance instrument.

Duration: 4 hours
Further info: Not prior knowledge beyond basic digital audio and computer operation is required.
