LiveCoding

Sunday, May 22, 2022

The workshop was developed around the concept of digital collage, mixing visuals, sounds and code. During the sessions, two programming languages for artists were reviewed.

Session 1

Presentation of the Estuary platform and introduction to CineCer0 for live playback and editing of video files, still images and text for the web. At the end of the workshop, there was a group activity on the https://estuary.mcmaster.ca/ platform, a networked performance platform.

Session 2

Live coding + E-lit, creative possibilities of code. During the first half hour, Mario Guzman presented his work with code. Artist Kofi Oduro used the remaining time for his presentation. In his online workshop, participants saw how code can be used in the musical, performative and literary arts. Using tools such as livecodingYoutube, Hydra, Inverse.website and Sonic Pi to name a few. They saw how expressive and creative code is, while having the benefit of testing how it can be used in a collaborative setting. Participants found that writing and improvising code can lead to varied outcomes musically, as well as using networked elements to their advantage when writing or producing work.

Session 1

This activity used the materials generated in the visual workshop (digital collage) and the sound workshop (soundscape). The two facilitators proposed tools to bring together the sound and visual compositions made in the two previous workshops.

    Bio Santiago Tavera is a Colombian-Canadian artist based in Montréal. Tavera’s practice revolves around constructing immersive and interactive projects that expand the body through digital media, to evoke virtual simulations of migrant and queer narratives of dislocation. In Tavera’s work, mixed media compositions of videos, 3D graphic animations, text, sound and reflective surfaces create blurred……

Sound

Thursday, May 12 and Friday, May 20, 2022

What do these urban places we usually frequent hide? Can we unveil them through reflection? Let’s rediscover the city, but by listening to it. The concept of soundscape was coined by Murray Schaffer in the late 1960s, and defined as the whole of everything that emits sound and surrounds us. In this workshop we will learn to listen, understand, discuss and explore the expressive potential of urban soundscapes, their relationship to heritage, cultural practices and traditions, opening the doors to field recording, which is now possible from almost any mobile device.

Visuals

Saturday and Sunday, May 14 and 15, 2022

The collage technique allows us to break away from the rigidity, limitations and restrictions imposed by traditional methods of image making. It invites us to experiment with visual language through already constructed images, to create and recreate their narratives, meanings and interpretations. It is also a way to stimulate the spontaneity of the process, to transform the tools and to look for our own way to find our own language of expression. In this workshop, we approach this technique by discussing references, techniques, materials, repertoires and narrative constructions, seeking to have each participant find an approach to their own visual language from texts or literary compositions.
