Dates and Times: 4 Mondays (13/2, 20/2, 27/2, 5/3) in 2012

Over 4 nights you will learn enough to put together a spectacular sound and light performance.  Composer and interactive designer Simon Katan will teach you how to track an LED light with your computer and a webcam using Processing and then turn that data into music using SuperCollider.

If you’ve never heard of Processing or SuperCollider, don’t worry ! This is an introductory course.  However, you should be comfortable using lots of different computer software and not afraid to learn some computer programming techniques. On the other hand, if you’re a hard-core coder but don’t know SuperCollider or have no musical experience then this workshop also has plenty to offer you.
