Dear friends,
This week marks the second Imaginary Landscapes festival at McMaster/Hamilton, featuring an eclectic mix of students, faculty and guests doing imaginative things with audio and code - and ending in a concert by the Cybernetic Orchestra.
I've copied below the schedule for the week - events run Wednesday Dec 3rd through Saturday Dec 6th. A special thanks to our featured guest artist Scott Wilson, to Humanites, Media and Computing and the Sherman Centre for Digital Scholarship at McMaster University, and to our two community partners the Hamilton Audio Visual Node (HAVN) and the Factory Media Centre.
There's a Facebook event for the festival, where you can find more details about specific events:

If you are around, come and listen/play with us!
Yours truly,
David
