I am happy to announce another workshop for the pd-LAunch week (4/25-5/1) in
Los Angeles.  On Friday, April 29th at 7:00 PM, Chris McCormick will be
teaching a workshop at CRASHspace on using Pd as an embedded audio engine
for other applications.

Pd As Your Embedded Audio Engine

“Pd as your embedded audio engine” will teach all about embedding libpd as
the sound engine for your app, whether its iPhone, Android, Java,
OpenFrameworks, Processing, etc. This workshop provides a broad spectrum of
different ways of connecting Pd to other things. Having hardware isn’t a
requirement either. The workshop will cover ways of interfacing with Pd from
computer to computer. Bring your laptop and devices that you want to install
libpd on (Android, iPhone, etc.)

HTML and/or programming knowledge will certainly help. The aim of this
workshop is to give a broad spectrum of different ways to interface to Pd.
So it will be dipping very slightly into Python, C, Java, Javascript, but
this is usually “glue code” and all of the code will be fully provided. You
do not need to be proficient in these languages at all, the workshop will
also cover methods that also just use Pd with no code at all.
Here is an outline of topics:

* Introduction
* History of Pd as an engine
* Ways to interface with a Pd process:
  * Midi & OSC
  * FUDI
  * stdout
  * Python + sockets
  * pdsend/pdreceive
* Parsing patches in three languages
* libpd on Android and iOS
* PdWebKitDroid
* RjDj and ScenePlayer
* WebPd

Students will need a laptop and should have Pd-extended installed and
working (download for free from http://puredata.info) – it is available for
Linux, Mac OS X, and Windows.

Space is limited.  Cost is $100.  Sign up at the CRASHspace store:

CRASHspace is located at 10526 Venice Blvd, Culver City CA 90232.
