xxxxx workshop_9 Berlin April 21, 2007

A (more-or-less) weekly series of constructivist workshops emphasising
making and connection within the field of the existent.

Upcoming: simple_sample_noise with superfactory[tm], cat_dd_jekyll and
friends with ap/xxxxx, and Crouching Table, Hidden Pointer [Pure Data
for soundfiles and live sampling] with Derek Holzer

Calendar:

21st April: DIY simple-sample-and-hold noise modules with superfactory

28th April: ap/UNIX process: dd, cat, FIFO, pipes for PD, jekyll,
i_am, leaks with ap/xxxxx

5th May: Crouching Table, Hidden Pointer [Pure Data for soundfiles and
live sampling] with Derek Holzer

May/June projected: GNU Emacs, television transmission, the C
programming language, spectral RF reception and white noise, 3D
modelling, ATmega8 microcontrollers a la Arduino, free construction

... or contact if you're interested in leading a related workshop.

21st April 2PM. DIY simple-sample-and-hold modules with superfactory[tm]

Jelly neurons, noise modules and microphones will be integrated with
etched audio memory devices under the skilled direction of Martin
Kuentz from superfactory[tm]. A DIY micro-sampling kit (based around
the ISD recording integrated circuit for looping, sampling and some
granulation) will be assembled by all participants using circuit board
etching techniques and simple electronics skill-set. The workshop also
functions as an introduction to these DIY techniques.

Background:

A weekly series of constructivist workshops emphasising making and
connection within the field of the existent.

Workshops led by field-expert practitioners extend over realms of code
and embedded code, environmental code, noise, transmission and
reception, and electromysticism. Workshops solely utilise free
software and GNU toolbase.

Practitioners include Julian Oliver (http://selectparks.net/), Derek
Holzer (http://soundtransit.nl), Jeff Mann (http://jeffmann.com),
Martin Howse (http://1010.co.uk), Fredrik Olofsson
(http://www.fredrikolofsson.com/), superfactory (http://superfactory.biz)

Further planned workshops will cover Pd connectivity and hardware, the
Arduino platform, ATmega8 microcontrollers, free software
documentation, VLF reception, radio antenna design, analogue TV
transmission, FPGA design... full details tbc.

Please RSVP m@1010.co.uk to reserve any places or register
interest. Please forward.
