CNMAT presents our intensive and immersive summer workshops for artists, musicians, interface designers, and anyone wanting to improve their skills with Max/MSP/Jitter or learn from scratch. The courses will be taught by programmers and artists with a great deal of experience both using and teaching the software. By the end of the workshops, students should be able to construct sophisticated, robust patches.
_______
Max/MSP/Jitter Day+Night School - July 18-22, 2011, 10AM-9PM
- This intensive week of hands-on classes covers a wide variety of topics related to Max/MSP programming. - Instructors: John MacCallum, Jeff Lubow and other experienced teachers Fee: $750
The classes each day will consist of two lectures separated by lab sessions where the students will receive one-on-one attention from the instructors and assistants. All students, regardless of their skill level, are encouraged to attend all of the sessions throughout the day.
The schedule will be as follows:
July 18-22, 2011
10am-12pm: Beginning/Intermediate Max/MSP Programming
12-1pm: Lunch
1-3pm: Beginning/Intermediate Lab
3-5pm: Open Lab/Special Topics (topics will include Max for Live, gestural controllers and eTextile sensing)
5-6pm: Dinner Break
6-9pm: Advanced Max/MSP Programming
NOTE: Participants are required to bring their own laptops with Max/MSP already installed and running. (Mac OSX or Windows XP/Vista) Jitter is optional, but recommend for students interested in video processing. Please bring a set of headphones to use during the lab. Also, participants are strongly advised to have gone through the Max, MSP, and Jitter (if applicable) tutorials before the workshop.
Pricing: As always, we try to keep our workshop fees as reasonable as possible. In past years the combined cost of Day+Night School would be $1000 ($550+$450) for 2011 the total cost is only $750 for the entire week.
_______
Jitter Night School – July 25-29, 2011, 6-9 PM
