3rd International Pure Data Convention, Sao Paulo Brasil

[TheSAD]

Next week I’m flying to Sao Paulo, Brasil. I’ve been selected to perform at the 3rd International Pure Data Convention ‘09 with the work ‘I C::ntr::l Nature’ – solo audiovisual performance for augmented bass guitar.

The work is completely produced and performed with the self-designed software ‘C::NTR::L 1.2 Beta’ - PureData based software for real-time audiovisual improvvisation which exploits physical computing technology.
The software is free for download and use, check this page.

I’m specially looking forward to attend to the series of conferences focused on the Pd development where also Miller Puckette – the creator of Pd – will hold a conference about Multiprocessing for Pd.


Here you are what the Pd Convention is all about (via: http://blog.pdcon.org ):

“The International Convention for Puredata (Pd) is a periodic event that started in 2004 and is the most important event of the community of developers and enthusiasts of Pd. Pd is a programming language used for the development of interactive applications, allowing the manipulation of data flow in real-time. As a free open source software, the developer’s community is vast and independent, and is characterized by having a rich and eterogeneous profile formed by researchers, developers and designers with a strong interaction and internal productivity.
There are several projects that use Pd in the area of robotics, psychoacoustic, new physical interfaces and open-hardware, artificial intelligence and pattern recognition signal, artistic and commercial projects, among others. In the Brazilian edition, we want also to improve the Brazilian community of developers, which has grown over the past two years becoming part of the international scene.”
