Object Score Notation/Kaleidoscope@Make Art

Saturday 6 November 2010 16:30-17:30
Lecture · Maison de l’Architecture, Poitiers, France

Simon Yuill & Dorothé Depeauw will present the collaborative way of working of Object Score Notation in Kaleidoscope at Make Art, the international festival of free art and technologies in Poitiers with this year’s focus on «in-between design: rediscovering collaboration in digital art».

Object Score Notation is a video tracking program for live performance works which can be programmed using a Pure Data style patching language. It was developed as part of ’Kaleidoscope’, a collaborative improvisational performance project bringing together software, dance, voice work and music. The presentation will discuss the collaborative process in the joint development of software and performance.
