with LUCA CARRUBBA and OSCAR MARTIN
dsc_02661-1024x680
Aim
The aim of this workshop is to learn simple programming strategies for the creation of audio/video software tools for live performances. Generative or interactive piece of software that let artist creates and controls a video stream or an audio processing in real time.
What
During the workshop we will use puredata, a free (as a bird and as a beer) graphical programming language particularly focused on the processing of audio and video data in real time. Puredata is a tool for artists whom wants experiment with a different creation pattern, with a freedom to build from the scratch they own instruments. You don’t need to be a programmer for begin to build your tool. In 5 days long workshop you will learn the basis of language, how to manipulate or create a video and how to play with audio. At the end of the workshop all participant will play a jam session together in the Lab space.
When
from 21st June to 25th June 2010. 3 hours at day. 7pm - 10pm.

Who
The workshop is held by Luca Carrubba and Oscar Martin
Luca Carrubba short bio:
Luca CarrubbaGraduated summa cum laude in Sociology of Communication, Luca Carrubba has worked for 5 years under the new media field as artist and independent researcher. Formed between institutional and underground medialabs in Barcelona and Madrid, he focus its production on the interaction between audio and video, always share the practices and codes. Based its action on certain keywords like DIY (do it yourself), knowledge sharing, accessibility, recycling and social movements. Also participated in many workshops to spread free software/technology/culture among Italy, Spain, England, Germany, France, Argentina, Brazil, Palestine and China. He is now professor of new technologies for art in Libera Accademia delle Belle Arti, Brescia, Italy.

Oscar Martin short bio:
Oscar MartinOscar Martín holds a Fine Arts degree from the Universidad Politecnica of Valencia, specializing in Sculpture and Audiovisual Media. That is where he came into contact with sound art through Leopoldo Amigo y Bartolomé Ferrando. A sound explorer, he bases his work on the deconstruction of field recordings and the creative use of technology errors. Luthier-digital with a “pure data” environment, which he uses to develop his own experimental tools for processing and real time algorithmic-generative composition. He can be placed somewhere between Computer Music, the Aesthetics of Error, and generative Noise.
He seeks the creation of virtual sound universes, imaginary soundscapes that encourage active listening and a different sensibility toward the perception of sound phenomena. He works under the open source paradigm. All his work is published under Creative Commons licence, by different recording labels and netlabels (dronerecords, tecnoNucleo, costellam, etc.) .
