January 2018 - Algorave

by Alex McLean

Hi all! The same idea as last year - for the algorave birthday we're opening up a worldwide youtube stream, you'll be able to book a slot and send some live coding or related form of algorithmic music/visuals performance. Here's what happened last year: https://algorave.com/wearefive/ Here's the schedule - please add yourself in if you're up for sending something. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1vtqxi98Z4JzO8Csm5omI_y0acJu4QA5E9... No need to rush/panic buy - there's over twice as many slots as last year so there should be plenty space for everyone. The times are in UTC (aka GMT), click the link to find your local time. cheers!

Question from journalist

by Alex McLean

Here's an interesting question from a journalist: "If you were writing an intro feature on algorave, what would you choose to emphasise, or what would be the angle / shop window for 'outsiders'? " any thoughts?
