The first International Conference on Live Coding (ICLC) call for papers and performances is now fully out, and available on the new conference website. If you’re thinking about submitting a paper, note the availability of markdown as well as Microsoft Word templates; chose the markdown option and your paper will be available on the web as well as for PDF download. If you’re considering proposing a performance, note that ICLC is hosted in a well equipped school of music, e.g. offering multichannel sound and at least one disklavier piano. There’s also a special session working with pianist Anne Veinberg or drummer Paul Hession, and (of course) Algorave club performances.
The conference themes (which are only indicative and not constraining) are reproduced below, the result of a brainstorming session during the doctoral consortium last September.
