SUMMARY:Creative Music Coding Lab #1
DESCRIPTION;ALTREP="http://steim.org/event/creative-music-coding-lab-1/":Ca
 lling all ChucK'ers\, SuperColliders\, Max and PureData patchers\, CSounder
 s\, Fluxites\, Overtoners\, and all other tongues of creative coders. We we
 lcome you to attend the first edition of the Creative Music Coding lab at S
 TEIM.\nIn the past years STEIM has hosted regular SuperCollider and Max mee
 t-ups for musicians and sound artists to gather and share their experiences
 . This year we have decided to break open these groups into a new experimen
 tation platform welcoming all artists who use code as a medium for making m
 usic.\nWhy the change in format? We believe that coding as a fundamental pr
 actice is not necessarily language specific. All musicians who use code as 
 a medium essentially share a common creative process\, one that favors high
 ly personal\, DIY methods for music making. This being the case\, the proce
 sses we draw from and fundamental techniques we use can be inspiring to all
 . By sharing our working methods and allowing an environment for cross-code
  fluency we will learn so much more.\nThe CMC lab is an autonomous zone to 
 try out sonic experiments as a group. And an opportunity to leverage the ex
 pertise of the group in realizing new artistic tools and processes through 
 the medium of code. Many of the founding members of the group are indeed ex
 perts in their favorite languages\, but we come from all technical levels o
 f proficiency and enjoy helping one-another out.\n&nbsp\;\n\nDETAILS\nDATE:
  Wednesday\, 20 Feb 2013\n TIME: 19:00\n ENTRY: FREE\n LOCATION: STEIM Conc
 ert Space\, Utrechtsedwarsstraat 134 Amsterdam ( map )\nPlease let us know 
 if you plan to come (mail marije [AT] steim [DOT] nl )\, so we have a rough
  idea who to expect.\n&nbsp\;\nWhat ARE the goals for the lab?\n\na place f
 or creative music coders to show work in progress\, regardless of programmi
 ng language or platform\na place to discuss and question techniques with fe
 llow computer musicians\nan informal stage for playing with others\, liveco
 ding sessions\, jamming\, and other fun experiments\nan opportunity to meet
  like-minded artists\, share talents\, and start new collaborations\nan opp
 ortunity to be exposed to new languages and improve cross-language fluency\
 na way to discover lesser known and emerging creative programming paradigms
 \na place to to discuss interconnections between programming environments\n
 an environment for discussions on cultural contexts surrounding coding in t
 he arts\n\nWe encourage members of the group to use this as a platform for 
 exploring ways in which we might be able to create and play together. Propo
 sals for creative group investigations of hardware\, software\, and coding 
 as process are welcome.\nAs always\, entry is free\, tea and coffee will be
