slub at /* vivo */
My last /* vivo */ Mexico post, some data from our livecoding performance on the final day. This was one of those performances where we had a rough plan and got a bit too carried away by the crowd to follow it (I guess one of the great things about improvisation!). Also to a great…

/* vivo */ musings
So much to think about after the /* vivo */ festival, how livecoding is moving on, becoming more self critical as well as gender balanced. The first signs of this was the focus of the festival being almost entirely philosophical rather than technical. Previous meetings of this nature have involved a fair dose of tech…

Mexican livecoding style
At only around 2 years old, the Mexican livecoding scene is pretty advanced. Here are images of (I think) all of the performances at /*vivo*/ (Simposio Internacional de Música y Código 2012) in Mexico City, which included lots of processing, fluxus, pure data and ATMEL processor bithop along with supercollider and plenty of non-digital techniques…

Temporal recursion
Slub have a number of important livecoding transmissions coming up (including a performance at the Mozilla Festival!) so it’s time to work on fluxus/fluxa/scheme bricks. Here are some recording tests of a feature I’ve been wanting to use for a long time – temporal recursion. These recordings were not changed by hand as they played,…

Livenotations gig at Arnolfini – The hair of the horse
Thanks to Farrows Creative we have some great photos of the livenotations performance with Alex McLean, Hester Reeve and me at the Arnolfini a few weeks ago. This was a completely unrehearsed combination of Hester Reeve’s live art and slub’s live coding. A score was made from rocks and stones, using their position and also…

We were invited us to run a workshop based on Naked on Pluto as part of their Tools Series: The Tools Series is a series of Baltan Sessions that examines the complex and changing…

Live notation at the Arnolfini
I was honoured to take part in the live notation unit’s event at the Arnolfini on Friday, and to perform with Alex McLean and Hester Reeve in the evening. Live notation is a project exploring connections between Live Art and Live Coding, both art forms revolving around performance, but with very different cultures and backgrounds.…

Cyclic score sketching for livecoding
Live coding in cyclic time, while making the process of sketching, painting and general mark making as much part of the musical performance as the coding is. This is a prototype for “The Hair of the Horse”, a performance with Alex McLean and Hester Reeve as part of Live Notation at the Arnofini on Friday…

SuperCollider Symposium
I had a great couple of days at the SuperCollider symposium, starting with a gameboy performance with Till Bovermann and ending with a talk on BetaBlocker with him and Tom Hall. As an outsider to the community (I have contributed code, but I’m not a regular user of Supercollider) it was interesting to pick up…
