Terrestrial Organisation for the Purity of Live AudioVisual Programming



For a long time computer scientists have been erasing time from programming, and we're now putting it back in.
For a long time computer musicians have been trying to hide the computation in their music, and we're celebrating it.


Live coding is a new direction in electronic music and video: live coders expose and rewire the innards of software while it generates improvised music and/or visuals. All code manipulation is projected for your pleasure. TOPLAP has been collectively developing, exploring and promoting live coding since it was formed in a smoky bar in Hamburg in 2004.

New home page

We now have a new home page! Have a look, and contribute links. All feedback is very welcome.

Introductory videos and texts

The best introduction to live coding is to watch some.

Show us your screens is the most recent documentary, featuring interviews with several live coders and live footage. To watch and read more, see our list of videos, articles and academic papers

Discussion

You are most welcome to join our mailing list, where we discuss live coding, share experiences and advertise events over email. You may also ask questions here on the wiki.

Start live coding!

  • First thing is to read our Draft Manifesto.
  • See all the live coding environments available, most are free/open source or freeware, and several come with tutorials and helpful community waiting to answer your questions
  • Once you're live coding, make yourself an official TOPLAP member simply by adding yourself to this list.

Or if you don't fancy programming, why not try Live Coding Without Computers
