the workshop


Posted: September 9th, 2010 | Author: Julien | Filed under: Event, Hardware, Music, Software | 2 Comments »

It was a success because there were a lot of discussions, questions, explanations, etc.

A VERY heterogeneous public, but very enthusiastic persons.
Really interesting.
I have to thank all of them a lot!

Special thanks to Michèle for communication/publication, to Denis for technical support & advices!

I met a lot of interesting/interested person.
With some of them, we’ll probably have projects soon.

I’ll probably design some others workshop around midibox, arduino.

Thanks to Ahmad Compaoré for his presence and his photos below:

La Provence is a local newspaper for France south-west.
I have been contacted by Charlotte Ayache & Julien Rafano for a little interview.
They are really nice persons and the discussion was very interesting for me (and for us, I hope)

my great (& tall!) friend made me a nice present these days.
he cut a lot of footages to build this nice video-clip.
THANKS TO HIM !

it is a bit more intimate than the other videos (wow! no porn, but I make strange faces)
I didn’t know that protodeck would make my face as a green alien during the shows. by the way, I’m ok.


this day was the D-day

the room is:
ISSUE PROJECT ROOM At the Old American Can Factory
232 3rd Street, 3rd Floor
Brooklyn, NY

I’ll play a full ambient/drone show.

More informations : here

So.. I have to finish some works I did into drony soundscapes several weeks ago :)
Concrete projects everytime help us to materialize abstract ideas!


the workshop is almost finished


Posted: August 20th, 2010 | Author: Julien | Filed under: Event, Hardware, Software | Tags: , , | No Comments »

I have 2 workshops sessions already booked:
- Marseille 8 september
- New York Manhattan 17 september

It will talk about the making of the protodeck but not only technically speaking.
I want to talk about:
- experiences about Live and why simplification doesn’t mean to reduce features but to power your framework
- why I didn’t buy a ready-to-use controller
- why the use of mouse + keyboard only is very bad
- why I use rgb leds + buttons instead of beautiful rubby gum buttons
- to know how many buttons you want is more important than how you’d wire them
- thinking more about “timing stuff” & “filtering objects” than filter,delay,reverb,resonator etc, can make you more intuitive than before
etc

I enjoyed to prepare that, and I guess I’ll enjoy to provide it.
It would be a 2hours session.

I hope you’ll be numerous here or there!

I’d love to make a protodeck with all in my hands in one day in front of interested people.

It could be done in marseille.
I’m designing a new controller, it isnt a big secret.
I’d probably have parts and I’d LOVE to have you here, with me, learning to solder, to upload codes and to leave for home with your controller under the arm !!!

Étude d’opportunité pour un training center / hackerspace à Marseille


Posted: July 27th, 2010 | Author: Julien | Filed under: Event, Life, Link | Tags: , , , , , , , , | No Comments »

Bonjour,

ce sondage/enquête est lancé pour nous permettre d’étudier l’opportunité et la faisabilité de création d’un lieu qui serait un mélange entre un centre de formation & un hackerspace à Marseille / France.
L’objectif de départ est qu’il devienne à moyen/court terme LA référence du domaine qui lui permettrait par un rayonnement important de toucher un maximum de personnes, de métiers, de compétences.

Vos réponses sont précieuses.
Elles vont nous permettre d’apprécier l’intérêt général d’un tel lieu à Marseille.

Voici donc l’URL où vous pourrez trouver ce sondage/enquête:
http://designthemedia.com/survey/index.php?sid=54473&lang=fr

N’hésitez pas à diffuser, forwarder, poster cette URL.
Plus il y aura de réponses, plus les résultats seront significatifs et plus rapidement nous pourrons concrétiser la chose.

Bien sûr, nous vous tiendrons au courant de la suite des évènements.

Par avance, merci.

Here is the link

It could be a pretty nice thing to show the protodeck there ; because they are those that fight for open-source stuff.
we all have to remember: protodeck is FULL open-source!

and more, I made it with FULL open-source software:
- kicad
- GNU midibox toolchain
- GNU C
- mios Operating System

and it is fully described on that page under Creative Commons License!

I’d like to explain the very close love between proprietary & open-source worlds with the nice opened way of max for live.
If they give me a chance to do that, I’ll do my best for that :)
