"CtrlReturn >> Jam & Learn"

A monthly meetup at the legendary c-base space station with round tables and flok server to engage in collaborative live-coding, or to learn through talks of experienced Artists.


Our Project "CtrlReturn"

CtrlReturn provides an exploration of creative synergies between sound, music, imagery and coding, transforming data patterns into immersive auditory and/or visual experiences. Our project is open for everyone - no matter if you are just curious about Live Coding or Algorave. No matter, if Newbie or Expert, engage in our workshops and collaborative live-coding, where you can leverage computational methods for sonification and visualization.

Note that our meetups and events are open and inclusive for everyone and expects attendees to follow the Berlin Code of Conduct.

LIVE CODE AND LET CODE LIVE

Our motivation stems from the belief that strengthening coding skills in creative self-expression enhances its appeal. By integrating Coding into music creation, we tap into the universal language of music using different symbols.

This initiative aims to stimulate engagement with coding and programming. Recognizing the significant role music plays in shaping identities, we believe our project will bring individuals into contact with Computational Arts and its vibrant community, fostering a sense of belonging and collaboration.


A LIVE CODED PARALLEL UNIVERSE

The organizers’ background is rooted in the FoxDot / Renardo Live Coding environment that is based on Python. However, with an emerging tool called Flok, we now can collectively engage with one another despite our preferred live-coding platform.
