size="-1">The Blank Pages Performance is an improvisation involving
live coding, where the participants are musicians and instrument makers
at the same time.<br>
The performances are never prepared and the participants do not
necessarily know each other. Each participant has a station on which he
creates a sound making program in real time using Pure Data or MaxMSP.
These programming environments allow them to write and modify their
code while continuing to produce sound and/or video. There is no
computer connection between the stations : only listening to each other
allows the participants to play together- the quality of the music
produced is based on this central idea and it is each performer’s
responsibility to listen as much as possible. This, the score, and the
four points below are what guides the musician/programmers through the
Blank Pages Performance.<br>
1. The performance lasts one hour. This is the length redeemed
sufficient to construct and develop a dialogue between the performers.<br>
2. Each participant must use one of two programming languages written
by Miller Puckette ; Pure Data or Max MSP. These programming
environments were conceived for the real time creation and processing
of data, sound <br>
and video.<br>
3. The musician/programmers must begin the performance with a blank
programming page. They are therefore set in a situation of pure
improvisation since even there instrument is non-existent at the
beginning of the set.<br>
4. It is strictly forbidden to load or save a file during the entire
session.<br>
