[PD] [PD-announce] NIME concert at Southpaw in Brooklyn, Tuesday, 12/15 8-11pm

[Hans-Christoph Steiner]

There will definitely be some Pd projects here:

> NIME: New Interfaces for Musical Expression.
> NIME: creating new performance tools for digital music.
> http://itp.nyu.edu/nime/show/
>
>
> In the eighth annual NIME concert, performers will play a series of  
> newly designed electronic instruments that aim to keep the "live" in  
> the live performance of digital music.
>
> Electronic music is usually played with a keyboard and mouse. Laptop  
> musicians often sit at a desk and give performances that are little  
> more than watching someone make "office gestures." The idea behind  
> NIME is to go beyond the mouse and keyboard and beyond even piano  
> keys and drum pads. It seeks to present performance systems that  
> make the most out of the new opportunities for musical expression  
> that digital technology offers.
>
> This year's NIME concert will feature such innovations as a  
> musically enhanced sewing machine, sonified floor tiles,  
> performative knitting needles, turntablism for live  
> instrumentalists, electronically controlled cartoon antics, novel  
> realizations of the rock guitar, and a host of other exciting  
> approaches to the creation of music.
>
> NIME is an end-of-semester performance by 16 graduate student  
> artists from the Interactive Telecommunications Program (ITP) at NYU.
>
> Entry is $7 (Free for NYU ID holders)
> Doors open at 7, Show starts at 8
