SPECIAL LIVE-CODING avec Alberto de Campo

L'Espace Culture Multimédia de l'association Confluences vous propose un atelier de 5 jours autour du langage libre Supercollider.
Cet atelier est destiné aux personnes intéressées par la synthèse sonore, la composition assistée par ordinateur et le traitement temps-réel en vue de performances.

L'atelier destiné à une vingtaine de personnes se déroulera en deux temps:
Un atelier d'initiation : les mardi et mercredi 26 et 27, entrée libre dans la limite des places disponibles
Un masterclass de trois jours avec Alberto de Campo, sur le thème du LIVE-CODING, principalement en anglais. Le coût pour ces 3 journées est de 100 euros.

réservation nécessaire dans les deux cas.

Biographie Alberto de Campo:

Alberto de Campo
Professor for Music Informatics

alberto.decampo_AT_musikundmedien.net

Alberto de Campo, born in 1964, studied sound engineering, and later composition with Andrzej Dobrowolski und Beat Furrer at the University of Music in Graz, as well as jazz guitar with Peter O'Mara and Adelhard Roidinger at the Bruckner Conservatory, Linz.

After being guest researcher for a year at the Center for Research for Electronic Art and Technology CREATE at the UC Santa Barbara, USA, he became research director at CREATE. Among other things, he worked with Curtis Roads on experimental synthesis instruments and wrote the official tutorial for the music and audio programming environment SuperCollider (then version SC2).

>From 1999-2007, he taught Electronic Music for Composers at the Institute for Electronic Music (IEM) at the University of Music and Dramatic Arts Graz. Since 1999, Prof. de Campo has been teaching workshops and master classes at a number of international institutions for computer music, such as CNMAT, Berkeley, the Institute of Sonology, The Hague, the Central Conservatory, Bejing, and others.

>From 2001-2004, Alberto de Campo worked as an assistant professor for media composition at the Kunsthochschule für Medien, Cologne (KHM). At KHM, he realised projects with Stephanie Thiersch (experimental dance), Bill Fontana (sound installations), and Andres Bosshard (complex sound systems for installations and live performance; SonoAviatik, ImaginAirports). Long term collaborations with earweego, the band powerbooks_unplugged, Matthias Mainz and realtime research and others began around this time.

In the winter semester 2004/05, Alberto de Campo held the Edgard Varèse guest professorship for Electronic Music at TU Berlin.

>From 2005-2007, Prof. de Campo was the lead researcher in the SonEnvir project. Here, an interdisciplinary team of scientists experimentally studied the applicability of sonification (i.e. perceptualisation by means of sound) of scientific data from diverse scientific fields. With the team, de Campo wrote numerous publications on the project's findings, and organised a concert of sonifications of social data for the ICAD 2006 conference in London (Global Music - The world by ear').

In 2007 the University of Music Duesseldorf appointed Alberto de Campo professor for Music Informatics at the Institute For Music And Media.

His research interests include algorithmic methods in the arts, interactive programming for artistic purposes (Just in Time Programming) and improvisation in ensembles with instrumentalists and live-electronics.
