[LAU] 5-day course 'Linux for music & audio', NOTAM (Oslo) november 12-16

[andersvi at extern.uio.no]

Announcing 5-day workshop in Linux audiowork at NOTAM (Oslo, Norway) -
november 12-16.

The use of Linux in sound and musicwork is spreading out fast.  This
course will start with a short intro to Linux as working-environment,
and continue diving deeper into relevant sound- and music
applications.

The content of the course will be adjusted according to the
participants needs wherever possible.

Typical sound-related tasks which will be focused on are:

    + installation of Linux, distributions, Live-media general intro
      to Linux, standard-apps (web, email, file-handling,
      audio/video/text/graphics)
      
    + discussion about typical Linux-relevant hardware: PC, Mac,
      things, gadgets, boxes...

    + intro to standard soundware on Linux, recording, playback,
      editing, mixing -- Ardour, Jack, PD, Snd, SuperCollider,
      Audacity...

    + compositionsystems, notation, sequencers, MIDI-tools, DSP-tools

    + use of NOTAMs Linux-equipped labs and studios

    + interactive control, sensors, installation-setups

    + studiowork: recording, mixing, mastering

    + realtime soundwork for concerts and installations

Everything relevant to participants own projects (if any).  The whole
workshop will end in a small concert at NOTAM on the last day of the
course.

Participants may bring their own computers to get a good Linux-based
music & audio-workstation up and running, and will be guided through
installation and configuration.
