CMD Speaker Series: Coding Visuals
Start: 15:30
End: 17:30

Woeishi Lean is a digital artist who produces computational media at a the intersection of design, technology and live visualizations. Reassembling methods from those fields, he aims to establish a direction of generative-interactive design, using his skills to realize integral concepts from programming frameworks to design details. Bridging his time between being a professional computational media artist, and lecturer at Universities in Austria, he has been able to sustain a truly interdisciplinary career. Through his practice he plays an important role in the development of VVVV, one of the world's foremost visual programming environments. Some of his notable performance works have been a music visualization mapping of the Arc de Triomf in Barcelona and the Austrian Pavilion for the 2010 Shanghai Expo, and numerous visualizations over the years for the Ars Electronica Festival's Prix Ars Awards ceremony. He lectures on subjects such as Digital Media in Performing Arts, as w  ell as Generative Design, AudioVisualistics and Algorithmic Design Patterns.

CMD Speaker Series: Measurements and Music with Chris Chafe
Start: 15:30
End: 17:30

Chris Chafe (ccrma.stanford.edu/~cc) is a composer, improviser, cellist, and music researcher with an interest in computers and interactive performance. He has been a long-term denizen of the Center for Computer Research in Music and Acoustics where he is the center's director and teaches computer music courses. Three year-long periods have been spent at IRCAM, Paris, and The Banff Centre making music and developing methods for computer sound synthesis. The SoundWIRE project launched in 2000 involves real-time Internet concertizing with collaborators the world over. New tools for playing music together and research into latency factors continue to evolve. An active performer either on the Net or physically present, his music is heard in Europe, the Americas and Asia. The five countries "Resonations" concert was hosted by the United Nations in November 2009. CDs of works are available from Centaur Records. Gallery and museum music installations are continuing into their s  econd decade with biological, medical and environmental "musifications" featured as the result of collaborations with artists, scientists and MDs. Recent new works include TQ11 "tomato quintet" for the transLife:media Festival at the National Art Museum of China and Phasor for contrabass and electronics.
