What to expect

This project is meant for music teachers of secondary schools, with a student’s age range from 10 to 14 y.o., who don’t have previous knowledge of the subject nor technologic background. The first part of the course is devoted to the basic concepts of visual programming in Pure data, presenting differeing categories of actors: ojects, messages, comments and using those to build basic sound engines with user’s controls such as pitch and volume among others. The second part of the course is dedicated to define user interaction with the system, namely sending data from a smart device through TouchOSC to a computer hosting Pure data in order to get a meaningful control over the patches built in the first part and thus transforming them into expressive instruments capable of basic interreaction with the user.
