This workshop is for musicians, composers, researchers, sound artists, and programmers who would like to gain a greater understanding of modern spatial techniques implemented in a state of the art music programming environment. While experience with SuperCollider is a huge advantage, we’ll start with installation and go from there, albeit quickly. Participants should have at least some familiarity with programming. This workshop was designed for Mac and Linux users.

This is an exploratory workshop on composition of experimental electronic music. Specifically, the goal of this weekend intensive workshop is to give students a basic practical understanding of select tools and techniques for the composition of sample-based electroacoustic music. Sampling will be discussed in its widest possible musical definition (including how it may change the nature of musical creativity and how it relates to politics).

This workshop is intended for musicians, composers, programmers and technologists interested in performing with distant musicians, designing systems for the medium or composing with the network in mind. No music theory or technical skills background necessary, the workshop will put emphasis on the participants’ particular interests and goals.

Soft Circuit will cover basics of wearable technology. Workshop participants will be given an overview of the history of wearables in the context of fashion, art, and technology. Instructor Grace Kim will share basic sewing and embroidery techniques and tips on how to repurpose everyday sewing procedure for use in wearables projects. Students will be given project-based instruction on basic circuitry and will construct soft circuits using conductive thread and fabric. No prior experience with electronics or sewing required. All materials and fees are included.
