IG: @ladaenr
Intro to creative coding for visual performance, beginners welcome!
1pm - 2pm Learn Hydra, Zach Krall

This workshop will serve as an introduction to Hydra, a live-coding environment for creating visuals using JavaScript. Participants will learn how to write code to create visual art. While Hydra uses JavaScript, we will cover the necessary code to get sketches up and running. If you've never coded with JavaScript or if you've never coded before, you will be able to learn how to use Hydra!
2pm - 3pm KAIROS: performing music with Csound and Haskell, Leonardo Foletto

Kairos is a library for the Haskell programming language designed to live code patterns of Csound score instructions to be sent to a UDP server running a pre prepared Csound orchestra. In this presentation I will describe the operational principles behind the software and give a short demo/tutorial.

Control Panels, Arcade Games, MIDI controllers! Learn how to build controls for the world around you with this workshop. This beginner friendly workshop is all about using Python to interface with the worlds most popular SBC computer, the Raspberry Pi. Using the GPIO.zero library, we'll talk about setting up some basics such as using the GPIO, buttons, and LED lights. We'll also show how you can use them to bring your projects into the real world with physical interfaces. Needs: Raspberry Pi B, A+, B+, 4, Zero, or Zero W (any with 40 pin header)
4pm - 5pm VODKA, Jason Scherer
Twitter: @eeeeaaii
Vodka is an accessible browser-based lisp-based livecoding environment for creating art, UI prototypes, user-facing app, and games. Jason will introduce Vodka, discuss his process building this environment, and show demos and future plans.
5pm - 5:30pm TidalCycles: Intro + Performance, Alex McLean

10 minute intro to a Tidal function, followed by a 20 minute performance using that function. TidalCycles (or 'tidal' for short) is free/open source software, that allows you to make patterns with code, whether live coding music at algoraves or composing in the studio. It includes language for describing flexible (e.g. polyphonic, polyrhythmic, generative) sequences.
5:30pm - 6pm Open Projector {Stream} signup
An opportunity for anyone to perform or show something they learned or created, lightning-talk style
Social Distancing Dance Party // Algorave!
6pm - 6:30pm Round robin signup
Zhenya Parish is a classically and culturally trained painter, based in the DC area. In her latest phase of discovery, she paints in time, moments, and experiences. Taking in the essences of the shared energy of life. Capturing an ephemeral encounter of art in community, while it happens. You are her painting. You are her moment.
Tommy Tranq is a techno recording and performance artist, focusing on making electronic music with physical equipment. Tom hails from the Washington, DC area and is happy to be apart of this SpacyCloud hosted event. The performance features Tom playing the Korg Monotribe groovebox (a combination drum machine/synthesizer) and the Way Huge Swollen Pickle fuzz pedal. Both are totally analog pieces of equipment and their performance is completely live and spontaneous.

Messica Arson is the musical project of Jessica Garson described by the Financial Times as gnarly cut-up sounds. Messica mixes live-coded danceable elements with live-sampled screams for an electrifying live experience, unlike anything you've ever seen before.
