Bruno Gola: c0l1v3

[Fubar expo 2k24] c0l1v3 is an experiment in collaborative improvised live coding and less traditional ways of collectively writing code.

It is always available as an open playground on the web, working as an online public square where anyone can enter, listen and jam together. c0l1v3 is built on top of open source tools and protocols such as SuperCollider, Python, WebRTC, websockets and Janus. c0l1v3’s interface is an experiment in breaking the traditional top-to-bottom linear code writing approach, it presents a canvas where players can add code anywhere; all players can edit each other’s code blocks. In c0l1v3 there is no distinction between audience and performer. Sonic and visually c0l1v3 relies very much on Glitch aesthetics.

For Fubar 2024 Gola invites the public to join with their mobiles and improvise this performance together.
