So please save the date and prepare your patches. It would be great to have some of you show what you're working on. We'll have dottore giving insights into his latest works and I'll be having latest VL.Xenko with me for a sneak peak.

Who sebescudie, joreg
When Tue, Mar 3rd 2020 - 19:00 until Thu, Mar 5th 2020 - 21:00
Where SUPERBIEN, 14 rue Crespin du Gast, (M Ménilmontant - Rue Saint Maur), Paris, France

D'accord Paris,

while I'm in town for a vvvv meetup on March 1st and a presentation at Ircam on March 6th, I thought we could fit in some workshops. So together with local hero sebescudie of SUPERBIEN we'll run two workshops. Here is for you to choose:

Getting started with the all-new vvvv gamma

Are you a creative coder, interaction designer, media artist, maker or scientist and want to add a new tool to your toolbox? Are you afraid of coding and want to try visual programming instead? Have you heard of vvvv before but never found the time to get started? Or are you just lazy and want to get your things done more efficiently? This workshop is for you!

vvvv is a visual programming environment that allows you to realize ideas involving things like 2d/3d animation, computer vision, MIDI, OSC, DMX, Kinect, Leap,... quickly without the need to write any code. But if you want, you can also write C# code for it and use any .NET library with it!

In this 3 hour hands-on workshop we'll give you an idea of how it feels to work with vvvv. You'll learn the fundamentals that you need to be able to follow further workshops or take the next steps on your own.

When: Tuesday, March 3rd, 7pm-10pm
Where: SUPERBIEN - 14 rue Crespin du Gast (M Ménilmontant - Rue Saint Maur).
Signup: It is free but seats are limited, please signup via: ping@sebescudie.fr

vvvv gamma for vvvv beta users

If you're a user of vvvv beta and want to up your game by learning about VL and moving on to vvvv gamma, this workshop is for you! Here we'll assume you're familiar with the terms of vvvv and know how to handle a 3 button mouse.

We'll take you by the hand and try to convince you that VL and vvvv gamma are your best friends moving forward. You'll learn about the basics and benefits of using an object-oriented approach to solve certain problems and get an overview of all the improvements vvvv gamma offers over what you're used to with vvvv beta.

When: Thursday, March 5th, 5pm-9pm
Where: SUPERBIEN - 14 rue Crespin du Gast (M Ménilmontant - Rue Saint Maur).
Signup: It is free but seats are limited, please signup via: ping@sebescudie.fr

Oui oui, hope to see some of you there. And please spread the word to anyone who could be interested in this!

When Wed, Mar 4th 2020 until Fri, Mar 6th 2020

Looking forward to presenting vvvv at this years Ircam Forum. With Ircam being the birthplace of both Max and PD, which quite inspired vvvv initially, it will be a great honor to hopefully give some inspiration back.

Here is what it is generally about:

Whether you are a musician, sound engineer, designer; Whether you work in research and development on new technologies; Whether you are a teacher or student, professional or just an aficionado, you are welcome to join us at this annual meeting at IRCAM, Paris.

My talk is on Friday, March 6th, 11h45 - 12h15 and and here is the full list of this years speakers.

Hope to see some of you there!

Where Mousonturm + other Venues, Frankfurt, Germany

NODE 2020

2 - 8 October 2020 in Frankfurt.

Save that date, prepare your patches and start your travel arrangements.

Dear patchers.

2019 comes to an end and we are glad to be able to announce the next festival edition for 2020 just before this year ends. It is finally official. NODE Forum for Digital Arts will be happening in October 2020 in Frankfurt. We got the locations and the date. So please save that date and equip yourself with patches, projects, questions, presentations.

See also the public announcement

Within the next month, we will be developing the professional program together with you. As usual, we will focus on vvvv, but also invite other communities to plugin to the program to foster exchange and skills and support social and technical integrations from community to community and software to software. As soon as we have some open doors you will be informed..

Lets bring it to life again and create a festival from which we as a community as well as new users and curious minds can expect the finest and most relevant workshops and masterclasses to learn about creative patching techniques from experts and new talents from the international digital art and design scene.

Together with Mousonturm and other international partners, we are also developing the discursive and cultural program for you. We will soon release our next leitmotif that shall be reflected within the community program, exhibition, lectures, talks and labs – so stay tuned for the open call to contribute with your ideas and projects!

A word on whats beendiscussed at last link. There has been the idea to run a community summit separetly from the node festival. This is indeed something that has been discussed intensly with many people and relevant partners. For now we decided to keep things together and let NODE Forum for Digital Arts be our community gathering as it always was. With all the topics and discussion we need.

What should I do next?

You may starting to collect topics and workshops here on vvvv.org and contact us for urgent requests.
You may start making travel arrangements as the date is fixed. It makes sense to think of Thursday 1st or Friday 2nd as the arrival date and to plan your trip back home on October 9th earliest so we can have a final party on the 8th. We will be releasing the tickets soon.

In the meantime watch that video from the previous edition and get into the mood.

looking forward to see you all again.

Once a month, every second thursday, we're hosting a "patching circle". Please join us for drinks and patches if you...

  • ...are stuck somewhere with a project and could use some advice
  • ...are just getting started and want to know what it`s all about
  • ...just want to click yourself away in a patch-friendly atmosphere

vvvv devs and other members of the community will be there to help and share their experience.
Wipperstraße 13 is our new space - for asking questions, collaborating and keeping yourself on your personal level of superhuman programming skills!

For the spontanous who are in Berlin or can make it to Berlin..
This one might help to understand the deeper fundamentals of vvvv gamma..

You will learn how to:

  • Translate your knowledge about object oriented programming into the visual paradigms of VL
  • Write VL nodes in C#
  • Extend your application with third-party libraries from the internet while it is running
  • Convert textual code into visual code
  • Use generics

Requirements:

  • Bring a Windows laptop
  • Bring a 3 button mouse
  • No prior knowledge of vvvv needed
  • You should be familiar with words like class, method, interface and generics and have a basic understanding of programming.
  • Please come with Visual Studio 2019 installed as this takes a while

Who Borusiade, ggml
When Thu, Dec 5th 2019 - 20:00 until Fri, Dec 6th 2019 - 03:00
Where arkaoda, Karl-Marx Platz 16, Berlin, Germany

Europalia X arkaoda pres:

Borusiade (live av)
Alexander Arpeggio and Maria Balabas (live)
Bogdan Orbita (dj)

excerpt from fb event:

Borusiade (live av)
Born and raised in Bucharest, Romania and now residing in Berlin, Borusiade aka Miruna Boruzescu started dj-ing in 2002 as one of the only female DJs in the city's emerging alternative clubbing scene.
Influenced by a classical musical education and fascinated by raw electronic sounds Borusiade combined
these elements in the construction of her DJ sets and starting 2005 also in her music production.
After experimenting with different projects, Borusiade slowly crystallised a sound of her own, often dark, with poignant bass lines, obsessive themes and by all means melodic.
2015 she joined the label Cómeme and started the series "The Dreamcatcher" on Radio Cómeme.
Her DJ sets combine bold and obscure sounds and genres fluctuating mostly in the field of Dark Disco, Industrial and Tropical Weirdness, some House with an Acid touch.
The sound is gloomy and powerful, with beats that touch one’s deepest senses on the dance floor.
Borusiade’s live music will be accompanied by real time videos created by visual worker cote.ggml
