They hosted weekly workshops for students from various disciplines on emerging topics in computer graphics. It was in this group that the first prototype of Shader Park was developed. \nTorin is a freelance creative technologist and adjunct professor at the Parsons School of Design in New York City teaching TouchDesigner and Creative Coding. Based out of NEW INC\, Torin creates immersive installations\, experiences\, interfaces\, and websites. Torin’s work explores emerging techniques in real-time graphics pulling inspiration from systems and patterns of emergent behavior in nature. This work has translated into creating large scale environments for medical professionals to alleviate stress/burnout\, for patients in clinical studies aiding in neuroscience research on brain recovery\, and for commercial spaces bringing sanctuary to the urban landscape. \nPeter is a creative software engineer whose work spans physics\, astronomy\, machine learning\, and computer graphics. He currently works at the NY Times R&D lab focused on emerging computer vision and graphics techniques.

SUMMARY:Natural Machines with Dan Tepfer - LIVESTREAM
DESCRIPTION:Date & Time: Thursday 17th June 2021 6pm UK / 7pm Berlin / 10am LA / 1pm NYC \nIn this live stream we’ll talk with Dan Tepfer and hear more about his project Natural Machines. \nIn an age of unprecedented technological advancement\, Dan Tepfer is changing the definition of what a musical instrument can be. Featured in an NPR documentary viewed by 1.5 million people\, Dan Tepfer shows his pioneering skill in this concert by programming a Yamaha Disklavier to respond in real time to the music he improvises at the piano while another computer program turns the music into stunning animated visual art. Called “fascinating and ingenious” by Rolling Stone\, the Natural Machines performance lives at a deeply unique intersection of mechanical and organic processes\, making it “more than a solo piano album… a multimedia piece of contemporary art so well made in its process and components and expressed by such a thoughtful\, talented\, evocative pianist… that it becomes a complete experience” (NextBop). \nMusic Hackspace YouTube  \n \nOverview of speaker \nDan Tepfer is a French-American jazz pianist and composer. \nOne of his generation’s extraordinary talents\, Dan Tepfer has earned an international reputation as a pianist-composer of wide-ranging ambition\, individuality\, and drive—one “who refuses to set himself limits” (France’s Télérama). The New York City-based Tepfer\, born in 1982 in Paris to American parents\, has performed around the world with some of the leading lights in jazz and classical music\, and released ten albums of his own. \nTepfer earned global acclaim for his 2011 release Goldberg Variations / Variations\, a disc that sees him performing J.S. Bach’s masterpiece as well as improvising upon it—to “elegant\, thoughtful and thrilling” effect (New York magazine). Tepfer’s newest album\, Natural Machines\, stands as one of his most ingeniously forward-minded yet\, finding him exploring in real time the intersection between science and art\, coding and improvisation\, digital algorithms and the rhythms of the heart. The New York Times has called him “a deeply rational improviser drawn to the unknown.” \nTepfer’s honors include first prizes at the 2006 Montreux Jazz Festival Solo Piano Competition\, the 2006 East Coast Jazz Festival Competition\, and the 2007 American Pianists Association Jazz Piano Competition\, as well as fellowships from the American Academy of Arts and Letters (2014)\, the MacDowell Colony (2016)\, and the Fondation BNP-Paribas (2018).

We aim to create an online space in which community members can showcase their creative practice – be it musical\, visual\, audio\, generative\, traditional or experimental pieces. \nHow does it work? \nJamspace is hosted live by Music Hackspace Workshop Leader Ned Rush. Pre-composed performance videos are streamed and after each performance\, the practitioners are interviewed live by Ned about their methodology. Anyone can watch the events live for free from our social media channels. Want to pose a question for the interview? You can ask questions in the chat on social media on the day.  \nCan I play / get involved? \nWant to show off your work for the next Jamspace?  \nJamspace is hosted by Music Hackspace Workshop Leaders Phelan Kane and Ned Rush.  \nYour piece could be anything that demonstrates creative use of technology in the arts. Performance to a camera is not a prerequisite – screen capture\, generative visuals\, green screen\, Max\, Jitter\, video filters\, VJ\, sonificiations\, Ableton Live and /or TouchDesigner created content is perfect. Anyone from the community can submit\, be it student\, workshop leader or alumni!  \nTell us more info on this link and a member of the team will be in touch.  \nWe look forward to seeing your work. \nBerlin Code of Conduct \nWe ask all participants to read and follow the Berlin Code of Conduct and contribute to creating a welcoming environment for everyone.

Watch the event live from our social media channels.  \nShowcase your work to the Music Hackspace community. \nWhat is Jamspace? \nJamspace is an occasional / monthly series that showcases audio and visual performances and collaborations from members of the Music Hackspace community. We aim to create an online space in which community members can showcase their creative practice – be it musical\, visual\, audio\, generative\, traditional or experimental pieces. \nHow does it work? \nJamspace is hosted live by Music Hackspace Workshop Leader Ned Rush. Pre-composed performance videos are streamed and after each performance\, the practitioners are interviewed live by Ned about their methodology. Anyone can watch the events live for free from our social media channels. Want to pose a question for the interview? You can ask questions in the chat on social media on the day.  \nCan I play / get involved? \nWant to show off your work for the next Jamspace?  \nJamspace is hosted by Music Hackspace Workshop Leaders Phelan Kane and Ned Rush.  \nYour piece could be anything that demonstrates creative use of technology in the arts. Performance to a camera is not a prerequisite – screen capture\, generative visuals\, green screen\, Max\, Jitter\, video filters\, VJ\, sonificiations\, Ableton Live and /or TouchDesigner created content is perfect. Anyone from the community can submit\, be it student\, workshop leader or alumni!  \nTell us more info on this link and a member of the team will be in touch.  \nWe look forward to seeing your work. \nBerlin Code of Conduct \nWe ask all participants to read and follow the Berlin Code of Conduct and contribute to creating a welcoming environment for everyone.
