Special bonus presentation on Saturday 1 April 11 am: ChDh

Posted on Wednesday, March 29th, 2006 at 14:01

By the initiative of Helsinki University of Technology
Laboratory of Acoustics and Audio Signal Processing,
we’ve decided to add one bonus lecture to the Pixelache
festival program, more info below…

TKK:n akustiikan tutkimuksen laboratorion aloitteesta
olemme lisänneet ohjelmaan yhden bonusluennon,
tarkemmat tiedot alla….

- - - -

Dear friends,

As you may know, the upcoming Pixelache festival (30.3 - 2.4) contains
excellent audio-visual works, performances, and presentations:
http://www.pixelache.ac/2006/pikseliahky/

Among these, the ChDh (Cyrille Henry & Nicolas Montgermont, FR)
performance is based on virtual instruments which are simultaneously
controlling sound and visual elements. Henry and Montgermont are
also the authors of pd-externals pmpd [1] and msd, respectively.

Pixelache organizers are now offering a special additional program
slot (1h) on Saturday, Apr 1st, 11 am at Kiasma seminar room for
presentation/discussion on the technical/implementation aspects
behind the ChDh project, before the official program starts at 12.
Do not miss this interesting occasion.

Please pass the info around.

TIME: 11:00 - 12:00, April 1st, 2006
PLACE: Kiasma Seminar Room.
EVENT: Presentation / Discussion by Cyrille Henry & Nicolas Montgermont, FR

[1] pmpd is a pd external library that provides real-time audio-visual
simulations based on physical behavior of objects. pmpd can be used
to create natural dynamical systems, like a bouncing ball, string
movement, Brownian movement, chaos, fluid dynamics, sand,
gravitation, etc., and thus allows a completely dynamic approach
of pd computing.
