  • AI art installations and livecoding gigs in Nov/Dec6 Dec 22

    If you follow me on bluesky you've seen this already, but over the last couple of months I've been hard at work on an AI art installation called Panic. This was a collaboration with Adrian Schmidt---I did the software, he did the hardware (including the cool, 6" diameter Panic! button)....

    Great news on the local computer music conference front: the Australian Institute of Music is hosting the ACMC conference in Sydney/Melbourne/online at the end of August '21.

  • A short list of Extempore livecoding tricks23 Apr 21

    Yesterday's LENS class discussion turned into an AMA of how I do certain things when I'm livecoding in Extempore. As promised, here's a blog post where I've put together all of the things we've discussed (with a bit more explanation). If you're in the LENS '21 class this'll hopefully be a helpful complement to yesterday's class discussion. If you're not in the class, then maybe you've always been curious about certain things I (over)use in my liv...

  • On livecoding annotations and visualisations31 Jan 19

    I've just finished reading Charlie Roberts' interactive web essay on annotations and visualisations for live code. If you haven't read it, go do that now---and make sure you have some speakers/headphones to listen to the code examples, because it would be a real shame to read it without watching/listening to his ideas in action. All the code samples (with the visual annotations) are live-editable, both running "whole blocks" and re-evaluating ind...

    One of the coolest parts of my job is doing livecoding gigs---here's a recent set I did at Smiths as part of Soundscapes #21. A big shout-out to Ushini Attanayake (not in the video, sadly) who did a fantastic job of her first livecoding set....

  • Science Week gig11 Aug 17

    I'm playing a livecoding set at the ACT Science Week launch party tonight. Sorry about the late notice to anyone who uses this blog to come to my gigs---I really should set up a newsletter or something. I think there are still a few tickets left (\$5, available from the website linked above)....
