| Comments | The workshop runs July 14-18, 11 AM-4 PM. Lecture 11-12, lunch break 12-1, lab session with instructor support 1-4. This intensive week of hands-on classes covers the basics of Max/MSP/Jitter programming, including the following: Navigating the Max/MSP/Jitter user interface Max/MSP/Jitter work flow: organizing multi-file projects, the Max search path, where to save things. Max’s data types: messages, bangs, integers, floats, and lists. Open Sound Control, audio signals, and Jitter matrices. Structure and interpretation of Max programs: objects, timing, patchers and abstractions. Basics of DSP: sampling, aliasing, amplitude, the frequency spectrum. Examples of sample playback and looping, synthesis (FM, additive, and granular, audio effects). Basics of Digital Video: the Jitter Matrix Examples of Movie Playback and Manipulation, and Animation with OpenGL. Dealing with input from controllers and sensors (MIDI, the mouse and keyboard, USB devices, and Ethernet). Mixing event processing, signal processing, and matrix processing. Using the CNMAT Max/MSP/Jitter Depot, an online repository of patches, tutorials, and repertoire. |

| Price | $800 |
| Instructors | Adrian Freed |
| Prerequisites | No prerequisites. All knowledge, skills and materials required are integrated into the class. Just bring your curiosity and your favorite way to take notes.) |
| Comments | The workshop runs July 21-25, 10 AM-4 PM Lecture 10-12, (lunch break 12-1, lab session with instructor support 1-4. This course offers a hands-on survey of sensors, sensor interfaces and integration software and hardware for use in musical performance, dance, video, sound and art installations. Students will explore sensor systems from CNMAT’s extensive library (and ones they bring to share) integrating them in a range of sound, image and motion synthesis systems. |

| Courses offered | Max/MSP Night School (for intermediate to advanced users) |
| Price | $500 |
| Instructors | Ali Momeni and guest lecturers |
| Prerequisites | This year’s night school will not cover the basics of Max/MSP programming — students should already be experienced with Max/MSP. |
| Comments | The workshop runs July 21-25, 6-9 pm (and typically later) Emphasis is placed on areas of active research and interest at CNMAT, including: Max 5: features, changes and advances real-time performance with computer based instruments probablistic approaches in interactive instruments gestural controllers (e.g. Wacom, Continuum, Tactex, Thunder, Lemur, etc.) rapid prototyping of gesture based instruments and accompanying real-time software in Max/MSP complex gesture-to-sound mappings techniques, including interpolators, neural networks and physical models gestural controllers many approaches to treatment of time and rhythm data-management advanced list and matrix processing advanced network applications with Max (e.g. ftp, http, POST/GET, ….) inter-system communication with OpenSoundControl intra-patch communication with OpenSoundControl analysis/resynthesis using additive and resonance models the SDIF file format complexity management in Max/MSP/Jitter reliability and robustness of concert-ready patches connecting Max to other software environments (e.g. Java, JavaScript, VST, MySQL, python, Ableton, Native Instruments, etc.) |

| Prerequisites | Must bring your own laptop computer (Mac or PC) with Max/MSP/Jitter installed and running. |
| Comments | Jitter Night School runs July 26-28, 6-9 PM. After completing this course, a student will be able to write Jitter programs that generate and/or process video in response to real-time control and/or simple algorithmic processes. Graduates of this course will also have the skills to read and understand larger Jitter programs and the foundation for exploring more advanced features of Jitter via tutorials, help patches, and online documentation. |
