Christoph Buchner/Bilderbuchi is a scientist by day, visual artist/coder/tinkerer by night. Active in Vienna since 2006 in the audiovisual collective Phononoia, he often can't keep the physicist's brain out of his visual work. He feels mostly at home creating generative visuals, but experimenting with slide projectors is also an acknowledged focus together with his colleague diascope.
Open Frameworks / PS ArtSpace / 24.09, 14:00 - 20:00
OpenFrameworks is an open source and cross-platform creative coding environment used by artists and designers to create interactive installations, generative graphics, and hardware interfaces. A standard tool for many who are innovating in do-it-yourself technology, OpenFrameworks can be used to interface with urban environments, create public installations, and implement local and global networked experiences.
Over two days we’ll walk through complete examples introducing the OpenFrameworks system. Together we’ll build a simple drawing application, do image processing, learn how to network an installation using OSC, and program interactivity using real time face detection. The second day will be an open coding jam where participants will be free to begin pursuing bigger projects. We’ll be there to debug and give guidance on tackling your ideas.
Participants should have some experience in programming in another language such as Java, javascript, or Processing, or C# and should be comfortable with using arrays and calling functions in their code. No previous OpenFrameworks or C++ knowledge is expected or required!
You’ll need to come with your own Mac, PC, or Linux laptop. Source code and snacks will be provided.
Join us for an introduction to programming in OpenFrameworks workshop on the 24th and 25th of September.

James George (NY) is a media artist/programmer using code to create new experiences in physical space. His works take the form of permanent architectural installations, public projection, and mobile applications. He is an active participant in creative software communities and a contributor to open source initiatives and holds a BS in Computer Science and Digital Arts from the Univ. of Washington. He & Karolina Sobecka are Flightphase, a design collective exploring emerging formats and expanded media.
Tim Gfrerer is a desinger and coder who explores new ways to create narrative experiences. His professional origins rooted in concept development for radio and in journalism, with an academic background in design and new media, his practice seeks ways to broaden and connect these fields. Before moving over to London and to writing mainly stuff for machines, he wrote for human beings and lived in Vienna; there keeping himself busy as a Journalist for ORF, and as a creative producer for Radio FM4.
