---MusicMakers Hacklab @ CTM.13 – “Indeterminism Machines”
---Submission Deadline: 11.1.2013
---Hacklab Runs: 29.1 – 1.2.2013

We don’t want to just talk about the future: we want to invent our own 
Golden Age. The MusicMakers Hacklab at CTM.13 will be an open, 
collaborative environment in which participants can learn about new 
technologies and get their hands on making their own musical inventions. 
It’s a space in which people can build a rapid prototype of anything 
they imagine, creating new ideas around music making and creation, from 
composition to performance and DJing.

We’re inviting people across media to encourage collaboration: 
musicians, developers, artists, designers, people working in skills like 
sound and music, but also code, fashion, visuals, and industrial design 
and craft.

Throughout the week, we’ll welcome artist and developer presentations 
from Keith Fullerton Whitman, Imogen Heap, Lucas Abela, Tim Exile, Ali 
Demirel, Native Instruments, Ableton, and others to be announced. 
Participants will share hands-on skill sessions on topics like physical 
computing and custom controllers, wearable technology and fashion, live 
visuals, Pure Data/libpd, Max for Live, Reaktor, OpenSoundControl, 
Quartz Composer, Processing, and more.

PARTICIPANT INFO

Selected participants who have proposed a project idea will be named 
official Hacklab Fellows and be provided with:

* Highlighted profile on CTM and createdigitalmusic.com websites;
* The chance to show your finished work at the live showcase at Berghain 
Kantine on 1 Feb, as part of the CTM.13 program.

In that spirit of sharing and community, the Hacklab will be open to 
walk-ins from both hackers and the general public.
