Workshop: Vision Factory Invited artist: Julien V3ga Professors: Ricardo Garcia, Douglas Edric Stanley Venue: l’École supérieure d’art d’Aix-en-Provence Room: l’Atelier Hypermédia Dates: 16-19 December 2008 Time: 9h-12h / 14h-17h In a couple hours we’ll be starting a four-day workshop using Julien Gachadoat’s Vision Factory platform. This one’s gonna be purely experimental folks, so come prepared with lab coats, flame retardants, and a whole ‘lotta patience. Julien has whipped up a crazy-but-cool server-client system for collective livecoding using a little OSC + Processing client for delivery of the code to the mothership. Should be interesting.

Presentation: abstractmachine.vb7d8 Speaker: Douglas Edric Stanley Venue: Haute École d’Art et de Design Genève, Geneva, Switzerland Department: CCC Dates: 3 décembre, 2008 Time: 9h-12h / 14h-17h I’ll be heading to Geneva tomorrow for a talk on Wednesday morning, followed by a mini-workshop in the afternoon at the CCC. We will be discussing the role of algorithms, software, and machines in the changing political landscape of our contemporary societies. There will obviously be some discussion of code and hacking in there, but I also want to discuss the role I think games and/or « electronic ludism » (i.e. the larger context of play [...]

Workshop: Objets interactifs : interfaces physiques et design algorithmique Location: Institut d’arts visuels, Orléans, France Artist: Douglas Edric Stanley, with Caroline Kassimo-Zhand & Olivier Bouton Dates: 27-30 October, 2008 Yet another workshop next week. This time I’ll be returning to the Institut d’arts visuels, a design school in Orléans, to kick-start a year-long project with a group of their students involving algorithmic objects. I’ll also be giving a conference on Wednesday, but I haven’t figured out the title yet, so I’ll post that at a later date. Here is the official description of the project, written by Caroline : Atelier [...]

Last week, we finished a week-long introductory course on OpenFrameworks. This was an advanced-level course, and considered as a pre-requisite the basic concepts explored on-line and on-site in my classes on Processing). The session was somewhat improvised, given that I’d never taught a class on C++ programming in an art school. I had to do a lot of adjustments, and we didn’t really hit our stride until the final day, when the class on pointers (apparently) tied everything together into a pretty little package, at least for those that had the courage to stick around until the end. As it [...]

Seminar: Programmation avancée avec OpenFrameworks Location: l’Atelier Hypermédia, l’École Supérieure d’art d’Aix-en-Provence Dates: October 13-17, 2008 Time: 9h-12h / 14h-18h As I mentioned last week, starting tomorrow I will be teaching a week-long intensive introduction to OpenFrameworks and C++ programming for artists and creative types. If you’re motivated and want to join in, let me know. Unfortunately, my blog has been down all week and I only figured out how to fix it today (Sunday), so this call for stragglers will probably be too late. But if you’re already in the south of France, we still have some room for [...]

Software: OpenCV Library platforms: Mac OS X | Linux | Windows Design & Development: Stéphane Cousot, Douglas Edric Stanley Release date: July, 2008 Development platform: Processing OpenCV For Processing is an open-source library for integrating basic computer vision analysis and tracking within the Processing environment. It simplifies access to the powerful OpenCV library and offers a Java/JNI wrapper for artists, designers and multimedia developers looking to integrate OpenCV into their project. OpenCV Pour Processing est une librairie open-source permettant de l’analyse et de la reconnaissance basique à l’intérieur de l’environment de création, Processing. La bibliothèque simplifie l’intégration d’une librairie puissante [...]

Starting tomorrow, I’ll be spending two days participating in Fing‘s Université de printemps (Spring University) entitled Plus longue la vie (A Longer Life). As you can tell by the subject matter, it’s about aging and the role of new technologies in the life of seniors, which is great for me because it adds yet another piece to the puzzle that I’m currently working on. Last year, plot worked with France Cadet, the Hacking Lab, Christian Graff and the students of the ESAA on interfacing with electric fish (cf. Workshop Mormyrophone™). Some interresting ideas emerged from that workshop, most notably Games [...]

Workshop : Plot à la montagne Location : Pyrenees Aix-en-Provence, France Artists : Fabrice Gallis, Guillaume Stagnaro, Jean + Cristofol, Douglas Edric Stanley Dates : 14 – 18 April, 2008 This week Plot was supposed to be in the Pyrenées — riding rustic trains, going for walks in the mountains, playing with accelerometers and GPS, and watching The Sound of Music, Moloch and other mountain movies — but through various accidents we ended up transporting the entire mountain to Aix-en-Provence.

Workshop: L’orientation algorithmique Location: Institut d’arts visuels, Orléans, France Artist: Douglas Edric Stanley, www.abstractmachine.net Dates: 31 March – 4 April, 2008 Yes, I am off to yet another workshop this afternoon. This time to the IAV in Orléans, a design school that is organizing all week a series of workshops, conferences, and presentations dealing with the theme La légèrté (lightness). This concept is obviously following in line with what is probably now 100% of the design schools in the world who have jumped onto the bandwagon of durable design. And yet while I’m thrilled with this turn of events, I [...]

Installation: C’est toi la patate !? Authors: Fabien Artal, J.C. Loewe, Raphaël de Staël, Amaury Tatibouët, Roman Viguier Direction: Douglas Edric Stanley & Stéphane Cousot Workshop: PlayVision Exhibition: Gamerz 0.2 Production: Atelier Hypermédia, Aix-en-Provence School of Art, Transatlab Here are some screenshots from « C’est toi la patate !? », the design-it-and-build-it-as-fast-as-you-can « installation ludique » we created in just under 4 days during the PlayVision workshop. The main goal of this installation was to use our still-in-construction Open Computer Vision library for Processing in a real-world context and see if it could hold up. Conclusion? So far, so good. The idea is [...]

Ok, so we’ve still got a lot of work to do from here on (like making a distributable library package, for example), but this evening Stéphane and I at least got a pretty decent little edge detection example working with OpenCV humming along quite nicely inside of Processing. So we’re ready for the workshop that starts tomorrow. Of course, there are other libraries that already do this inside of Processing, but this will open a lot of future doors, so we’re pretty happy. Here’s a quick snapshot before I go to bed:

Workshop: playVision Organizers: Douglas Edric Stanley & Stéphane Cousot Location: Atelier Hypermedia, Aix-en-Provence School of Art Dates: January 8 – 18, 2008 Partners: Transatlab, School of the Art Institute of Chicago, M2FCréations, Hacking Lab, Atelier 3D, Locus Sonus I’m a little giddy this evening, because Stéphane Cousot and I finally got a first very-alpha version working of the OpenCV library for Processing. We’re building this library for a workshop that begins next week and will eventually finish with a game to be installed at the Gamerz 0.2 exhibit on January 15th in Aix-en-Provence. After that, we’ll join up with the [...]
