DSP Seminar talk given by Charlie Roberts, Rochester Institute of Technology. January 7, 2016. CCRMA, Stanford. Abstract: In most canonical live coding performances, programmers code music and/or art while projecting source code, as it is written, for audience consumption. Although the live coding community actively debates both the meaning and necessity of this projection, I propose that visual annotations to source code can playfully help communicate algorithmic development to both performers and audiences. In this talk I will briefly outline the history of live coding, describe prior work in the live coding community using visual annotations to illuminate source code, and show my work with the live coding environment Gibber to make source code (and maybe even audiences) dance. I will conclude with a short performance demonstrating these ideas. more information:
