Level: Intermediate In this series of 4 workshops, we’ll look at how to interconnect the different 80 modules that come with Vsynth, exploring video techniques and practices that can create aesthetics associated with the history of the electronic image but also complex patterns founded in some basic functions of nature. Here's what you'll learn […]
Learn to create interactive visuals with Vsynth, a powerful video synthesis library built for Max in this series of 4 workshops led by Kevin Kripper, author of Vsynth.
Explore the most important techniques when working with Max, and build your own music software for live concerts and installations
This practice-led course will show you how to make an electronic textile interface for music performance. We will learn a DIY technique to craft with e-textile materials and then explore how to make music with the handcrafted interface in a number of ways. Each session will follow on from the last, developing your knowledge through […]
Max is Ned's go to environment to realise concepts for sound design and performance that are not available in other programs. In this 2-hour workshop you will learn ways to sample and loop incoming audio from the outside world. You will create a fresh sonic palette from mutating the sound, using a variety of techniques aimed at performance […]
Learn to program amazing and powerful videos with Jitter and GL3, the latest OpenGL add-on available for Max 8. With Federico Fodefaro.
In this workshop we’ll look at scripting techniques for changing the appearance and behaviour of Max patchers, and the use of Javascript graphics to build new types of on-screen displays and controls. /**/ Max contains an embedded Javascript engine which can be used to control aspects of Max from a textual language, providing more power […]
Learn to construct music-generating algorithms in Max, to compose semi-autonomously or supplement your compositional practice. Level: Intermediate Composing with randomness For centuries, musicians have incorporated chance-based elements into their compositions, first through coin flips and dice rolls and more recently through computer software. Today, building music-oriented algorithmic systems is easier than ever with Max. What you […]
During these workshops you will prototype your own instrument (hardware and software) using an Arduino microcontroller, sensors, and Max or Pure Data. Registration includes access to all sessions. You will be introduced to the basics of working with an Arduino microcontroller and interfacing it with a computer software in order to generate, control and manipulate […]
Level Intermediate. Knowledge of Max or Pure Data is required, and some rudiments of digital audio. Max offers a vast playground of programming opportunities to create your own audio FX devices. In this series of workshops you will build delay line, filter, chorus and flanger audio FX devices, empowering you to utilise them in your own […]
