Artech

nospam@example.com (Jorge Cardoso) — Sun, 28 Aug 2005 11:23:05 -0400

The Artech 2005 was held yesterday.

The presentations I found more interesting were:

The guest speaker presentation by Prof. Christa Sommerer. Loved to hear about some of her projects, especially the ones about the Google Images and the swimming creatures.
The one about a funtastic project - Public Sound Objects ;) Here's the presentation (~800Kb).
The one about a system for Interactive Story Telling with Mobile Devices ( "Narrativas Interactivas em Dispositivos MÃ³veis")

Artech Presentation

nospam@example.com (Jorge Cardoso) — Sun, 24 Jul 2005 14:58:50 -0400

I'll be presenting the Public Sound Objects project at the Artech 2005 Conference. The conference will be held at Vila Nova de Cerveira, Portugal on August 27th.

Day Four - The Last Day

nospam@example.com (Jorge Cardoso) — Sat, 28 May 2005 10:43:00 -0400

The presentations I remember most from the last day where "Sonification of Facial Actions for Musical Expression" and "Pocket Gamelan: a Pure Data interface for java phones".

The first one was about a way of recognizing facial expressions to generate music.

The second one was a Pure Data to J2ME converter. A program that could translate PD patches to MIDlets (Java programs for mobile phones).

The rest of the day is blurry... :)

Day Three -- The Rob & The Hovercraft

nospam@example.com (Jorge Cardoso) — Fri, 27 May 2005 10:42:00 -0400

That's right! There was rob and a hovercraft. Keep reading.

The keynote speech was given by Golan Levin. He talked his work and showed some videos about them. I didn't know his work, and I liked it very much. Some very simple concepts with maybe not-so-simple implementations that result in great visuals and sound.

Day Two

nospam@example.com (Jorge Cardoso) — Thu, 26 May 2005 16:47:00 -0400

The second day of NIME was the first day of the paper sessions.

The keynote speech was given by Don Buchla, that talked about the musical instruments that he has created over the years.

ChucK This Out

nospam@example.com (Jorge Cardoso) — Wed, 25 May 2005 07:39:00 -0400

The first day of NIME started with a workshop about an audio programming language -- ChucK. The language itself is an interesting one, from my point of view. It supports multiple, simultaneous, dynamic control rates, code modification on-the-fly and, although it is not a graphical programming language, it captures the graph model of those languages.

Up, Up, And Away...

nospam@example.com (Jorge Cardoso) — Tue, 24 May 2005 10:40:00 -0400

Ok, now I'm really taking off... :)

Here I am on my way to Vancouver, for the NIME Conference.

We're presenting the Public Sound Objects -- a collaborative, virtual, musical environment.
