Details:

Pure Data (Pd) is a free, open-source, community supported data flow
language <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dataflow_programming> and coding
environment with an emphasis on sound, music, and multimedia.  It was
originally written by Miller Puckette (also the original author of Max/Max
MSP) and runs on Linux, Mac OSX, Android, and Windows.

Pd has been used widely in the creation of art -- such as music, sound art,
visual art, generative, new-media, and interactive art.  Pd interfaces
readily with MIDI equipment and many popular microcontrollers.

In this 4-hour course, students will learn the basics of Pd and will have
fun developing foundational Pd patching skills.

Beginners are welcome.  No prior computer programming or sound programming
experience is required!
Notes:

Students should attempt to install Pd prior to the workshop...but if not,
no biggie.  We can help with that!

Seating is limited to 20 participants.  Please RSVP to
jason at noisybox.netto reserve a spot.

Attendees will respect Flux's code of
conduct<http://fluxlab.io/conduct-agreements/>and will be asked to
donate.
