"Ich bin ein Objekt": Learning Pure Data as a Language with Derek Holzer

DATES: 13-14 November 2010 12:00-17:00, COST: EUR 35 LOCATION: NK, Elsenstr. 52/2.Hinterhaus Etage 2 12059 Berlin Neukölln

Pure Data (or Pd) is a real-time graphical programming environment for audio, video, and graphical processing. This introductory workshop is ideal for new users of Pure Data who are finding the "vocabulary" and "grammar" difficult to grasp. We will learn Pure Data as one would learn any other language, taking a series of very basic examples from the Pure Data FLOSS Manual. This workshop gives a good starting point for more advanced Pd workshops, or participation in the Berlin Pure Data users' group. The workshop will be taught in English ;-)

Participation is limited to 12 participants. Pre-registration is required and can be done by sending an email to info@nkprojekt.de

Now Splice the Tape: Working with Soundfiles in Pure Data with Derek Holzer

DATES: 04-05 December 12:00-17:00 / Presentation 05 December 18:00 COST: EUR 35 LOCATION: NK, Elsenstr. 52/2.Hinterhaus Etage 2 12059 Berlin Neukölln

Manipulating recorded soundfiles is one of Pure Data's most powerful features. However, the process of doing this remains one of the most confusing tasks for newcomers. During this two day workshop, we will cover the basics of loading soundfiles to tables, live capturing and looping, adjusting tempo and pitch, changing the looping, starting and stopping points of your playback and an introduction to granular synthesis. We will also examine ParticleChamber as an example of a full-fledged soundfile manipulation application built entirely with Pd. Some previous experience with Pd and/or participation in the "Ich bin ein Objekt" workshop is recommended. This workshop will end in a free public presentation of the instruments you have created, invite your friends!

Participation is limited to 12 participants. Pre-registration is required and can be done by sending an email to info@nkprojekt.de

Felix Pfeifer will present his work (in progress). His project aims at providing an interface for creating improvized pattern based (dance-) music live in realtime (without loading or saving). He uses the novation launchpad and a selfmade USB-MIDI interface with many knobs and sliders custom-designed for a pd patch hosting the synths LINK

Topics:

• using the launchpad with Linux
• programming the launchpad LEDs in pd
• general discussion on (self-made) interfaces
• mappings in pd

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.
