Following Jeff Snyder's Distinguished Lecture Designing and composing for unusual electronic instruments on February 4, 2025, a joint workshop is organized by Research Axis 1 (Instruments, devices & systems) and Axis 4 (Expanded musical practice) with our guest lecturer. This workshop had originally been scheduled for October 8, 2024.
Registration
Please register to attend using this MS form.
Description
Jeff Snyder will lead a workshop that explores two ideas: using mobile phones as electronic musical instruments, and using animation to open up new notation possibilities. We'll build a little instrument together on our phones using PureData and the MobMuPlat platform, and then use those instruments to play a piece of Snyder's that employs animated notation as a mean to communicate live musical instructions.
Please prepare these details prior to the workshop:
- Download PureData (not source code, just the build for your platform, Mac/Windows/whatever)
- Download the MobMuPlat development package on your computer
- And get the MobMuPlat app on your phone
