Livecoding 101: An introduction

What is livecoding? Can programming be a performance? Can algorithms be improv? Why would musicians and visual artists choose to perform in nightclubs this way? Members of TOPLAP (Temporary Organisation for the Promotion of Live Algorithm Programming) will introduce the livecoding concept and discuss their individual motivations and approaches. This informal panel discussion will be followed by a live mega-jam by all attending TOPLAP members.

Panel chair: Amy Alexander

Support has been provided by the Center for Research in Computing & the Arts (CRCA) at the University of California San Diego.
