Pre-requisite

There is no particular computer skill necessary for the workshop, however It could be useful to have a basic knowledge in maxmsp/pd or processing or other similar apps that support OSC, as it is a very powerful way of extending VPT.

If you want to work with gesture tracking, sensors,... it is necessary to have some experience with Arduino, Processing, Max-Msp, PD, electronics,... (although we can provide templates for arduino for simple sensor input and servo output).

Equipment

Selected participants should have their own laptop (VPT is Mac/Win compatible but you can use Linux for any control processes as long as it can communicate through OSC). Video-beamers and and other audio-visual equipment will be provided by iMAL.

Workshop Fee

50 EUR (2 lunches + drinks included)
