Sometimes there are happy accidents, and music can be found in unexpected places. During this workshop, we will explore the sounds that can be produced by writing deceptively simple code, and telling the computer to interpret the output as sound. You will leave this workshop with some musical artefacts of your own, and the tools and know-how to make more.
Participant requirements:
- No specific knowledge is required. We will be writing *extremely* simple code, and the basic elements required to follow will be taught during the workshop.
Tools participants should bring:
- Participants should bring a laptop computer with a desktop operating system (Windows, OSX, Linux, etc...) and a set of headphones.
- The following software: http://is.gd/hardcorde
Intended audience:
This workshop is intended for anyone with a hungry mind, a curious ear, and a desire to peek into the oddities and aesthetics of found art and creative programming.
