Overview

Join Jason Levine, computational poet and musician, in an exploration of livecoded music. Learn about Levine’s process and create your own improvised algorithmic composition during this special, one-time workshop.

Students will learn how to use the Extempore livecoding language to synthesize sounds and create rhythmic patterns, and will be encouraged to experiment with using code in an improvisational or artisanal mode in contrast to the traditional problem solving mentality associated with coding.

Attendees must have prior coding experience and will need to bring their own headphones. Participants who are not able to bring a laptop computer can use one on loan, with advance notice provided. Includes dinner. Limited to 20 participants. Pre-registration required. For 18+ years.
