#iclc — Public Fediverse posts

If you tried to submit something to #ICLC today and it failed, there was a problem with the submission form: the deadline extension had not been applied everywhere.
This has now been corrected, and you should now be able to submit again (well, before 1st September).
#ICLC2027 @incolico

Are you happy that the #ICLC2027 call deadline is being extended to September 1st 2026?

If you were an #ICLC reviewer in Barcelona, we've sent you a friendly email last week that might have ended up in your spam.
If you consider doing some reviews again, please check your spam.

We’re still looking to extend our pool of reviewers. If you’re an active live coder (in all its facets), and you’re interested in reviewing, please send an email with a short description and keywords of your field of expertise.

anyone is welcome to submit a proposal!

All info https://iclc.toplap.org/2027/

I'm curious, who here intends to submit a paper/performance/installation/workshop to ICLC 2027?

Navigating ScMoo

In my previous post, I described how to install and start the SuperCollider Moo. In this post, I’m going to talk about how to use and move around the Moo.

Note this is an early version and it’s my intention to gradually make the SC Moo align more closely with LambdaMOO commands and syntax. Note also that the database is static. Your changes will be visible to yourself and others while you are logged in, but they will not be saved. If you make something you really like, please keep a local copy of it.

When you log in, you’ll see a lot of messages in the SC Post window, including loads of error messages. Just hold on until the GUI opens. This GUI will have a random colour, but it will have three text areas.

The left hand side is the Moo’s output. The right hand side and bottom are both input. The right hand side is designed to enable entering code. If you just want to use the Moo as a user, you can make that side smaller by clicking and dragging on the grey line that separates the two sides. Then just enter your Moo commands in the bottom text area, followed by enter or return to evaluate them.

When you log in, your character will connect to the lobby. You will see text describing the room. Below that, you will see a list of objects if any are present. Below that, a list of other users, if any are present. And finally, a list of exits. If there are not exits, it will say “There is no way out” because I thought that was funny.

You can look again at the room any time by tying “look” (without the quotes) and pressing enter in the bottom text area of the window. In the current iteration of the database, the lobby contains a flyer. To look at it, you can type “look flyer” and hit enter. To look at yourself, type “look me“.

The default message for what you look like isn’t very exciting, so you might take a moment to change it. Type ‘ describe me as "My description goes here." ‘ (without the single quotes). Put your description inside double quotes. After you change it, try look me again. This is what others will see when they look at your character.

You can move through the Moo by typing the names of the exits. From the lobby, you can type “north“. This will place you in the bar, which has several objects. You can look at all of them and some of them have additional verbs – that is they are interactive. To see the verbs on an object type “verbs ” followed by the name of the object. For example, “verbs cage” will tell you the verbs on the cage. From that, you’ll see that one of the verbs is climb, so try climb cage.

Some of the verbs have audio on them and some don’t. Some of the objects have attached sound and some don’t. Let’s look at the jukebox. The verbs on it aren’t promising. We can’t describe it because we’re not the owner and it doesn’t seem to have anything in about playing it. So let’s put our own audio on it.

Go to the right hand side of GUI and evaluate the SuperCollider code (Moo.default.me ++ Moo.default.me.location).push; Now we can live code the jukebox, which has been added to the environment as ~jukebox.

We can set a pattern ~jukebox.pattern = Pbind(); and then play it ~jukebox.play; The resulting pattern is super boring, so why not modify it? ~jukebox.pattern = Pbind(\freq, 330); You can then live code it as you would with Pbinds or any other kind of pattern. You can set any SynthDef you’d like. As of now, all of these interventions are entirely local, alas, but networking them is coming.

People at ICLC asked for a Moo Quark.

https://github.com/celesteh/SCMoo/releases/tag/0.002

This requires the latest version of BiLETools https://github.com/celesteh/BiLETools/releases/tag/v1.1

and JSONlib, which is the Quarks.gui

Liveness did not exist before recordings or broadcasts.

It only became a thing after reproduction.

The qr code changes when the code changes.

Using SuperCollider instead of slides is a square on my bingo card!

(Put your names on your presentations please, folks.)

Drifter is a GPS enabled mobile sound walk app. It relies on a server running SuperCollider. Thus combining two of my interests!

A talk on creating diversity in live coding by a curator's perspective.

The speaker is a Dutch white guy in Holland.

Is live coding an effective way for children to learn music?

Like understanding of how music works, how pianists get an understanding of music mediated by their experience of piano.

Toplap Athens is distributed around Greece and is a networked community.

Interesting that a blank slate live coder disavows the identity of "composer."

Derrida reference in a live coding reference.

… I should actually read this philosophy. Its inclusion in a tech-adjacent project is always a good sign.
