This is the third in a series of workshops exploring how Pure Data (Pd) can be integrated into iOS to create sophisticated, interactive iPhone/iPad audio apps. In the first workshop, we learned the basics of how to implement Pd within iOS using libpd, along with some basic UI sliders and switches. In the second, we […]
The workshop will be led by Eleonora Oreggia aka xname. With assistance by Chris Wood. After a short introduction, participants will experiment with different instruments and techniques in order to create sleep inducing sound culminating in a short composition. The field of lullabies, far from being saturated, will be left opened for others to reflect […]
