What is Live Coding?
Live coding is the creation of art and music by writing and changing computer programs while they run live.
In the last few decades, this practice has emerged as a dynamic creative discipline, gaining attention across cultural and technical fields—from music and the visual arts to computer science. In live coding the composition happens in real time, where performers can communicate via sound, visuals, robotic and human movements, or basically anything that can be controlled. In performance the code is often projected on a screen for the audience to follow.
Ages: 13–16
Registration: required, opens October 15th.
The workshop will be held in Icelandic.
