[microsound-announce] PERMANENT DEVIATION

[the memelab]

Hi all

On Friday March 14 @ VIVO Media Arts, we are launching PERMANENT DEVIATION, an online Processing compiler and simultaneous participatory exhibition space
conceived by JULIE GENDRON. Please see below for more details.

I thought this event might of interest to the subscribers of this mailing list  based in Vancouver or elsewhere!
***Please note that people who cannot attend are welcome to participate by going to the site (http://permanentdeviation.com) on the night of the event to add their own code or watch the coding LIVE.

PERMANENT DEVIATION
Opening: FRIDAY MARCH 14, 2014 / 8pm-12am (PST)
Website launch and live art coding

PERMANENT DEVIATION (http://permanentdeviation.com) is an online
Processing compiler and simultaneous participatory exhibition space
conceived by JULIE GENDRON in association with BRADY MARKS.

Permanent Deviation provides an online space that can be described as an
exquisite corpse, graffiti wall, training ground for making generative art
using the Processing* programming language. Coders must use the code of
the last participant in a set amount of time to generate a new art object.
In this way, each participant’s code acts as the baseline from which the
next coder has to work.

The site will be officially launched at VIVO on March 14, 2014 in the
Video Bar. JESSE SCOTT and JULIE GENDRON will co-curate an evening of live
art generation where any coders at the opening or around the world can
take over the site and change the canvas.


JULIE GENDRON is a designer and artist who works in the areas of
interactivity, access, playfulness and change. Julie designs and
facilitates experiences that allow people to explore and create their own
point of view, culture and communities through her participatory art
practice. This project is one in a series of structural artworks that is
intended to be completed by its viewers. Other works can be seen here:

*Processing is a generative programming language typically used for the
purpose of art making. It is normally executed in a client-side
application but this project uses the processing.js library to allow it to
be used online.

This project was developed with the participation of Creative BC and the
British Columbia Arts Council.
