Call for submission :
Media space – MAX/MSP/Jitter & microcontroller workshop
- Training on the audio, visual and interactive components
of multi-media production.
Studio XX requests proposals for interactive audio and/or
video projects to be produced within the framework of two
professional development workshops intended for female artists.
Proposals for the first session should be straightforward
and possible to realize in the context of the beginners’
workshop starting October 2006.
Please send your proposals and CV to
ateliers@studioxx.org
A request for proposals will be made in November 2006
for the advanced workshop beginning January 2007.
Workshop 1 (October 2006): Beginners
The general aim of the workshop is for female artists to learn
about the various audio, visual and interactive components
of multimedia production by creating a digital work using
MAX software. Using MAX is essential in terms of understanding
the technical language and manipulating the basic audio, video
and interactive tools used in digital creation.
*************
Le Studio XX ne distribue pas MAX. Vous devez soit posséder
une license de ce logiciel, soit utiliser les stations informatiques
disponibles pour les participantes.

Workshop 2 (January 2007): Advanced
A practical Max workshop where participants
will learn how (Basic Stamp and Arduino) microcontrollers
work and how to construct small electronic circuits to carry
out programmed functions. The workshop will enable the artists
to master the tools necessary to fully realize all aspects
of multimedia projects.
Contents: Workshop 2
_Interactivity
Interface-user, motion tracking, sound tracking, sensors,
MIDI protocol and OSC, computer networks, and Internet.
_Circuits
Basic Stamp, electronic components, reading graphs, constructing
sensors, motor control circuits.
The submissions deadline for the second workshop
will be announced in November 2006.
These two workshops are designed to develop
the professional skills necessary to using new technology
as a creative tool.
The training provided by Patrice Coulombe will
allow participants to increase their artistic and professional
skills by learning:
- to use Max software with a view to creating a digital work
the language specific to audio, video and interactive creation
- sensor construction techniques simple electronic circuit
construction techniques
- about the functioning of microcontrollers.
Studio XX will present the resulting works within
the framework of a Femmes br@nchées salon.
