A G.Hack team will give a workshop on how to hack a Web Audio API straight through the Google Chrome web browser to make a sound map of Centre Pompidou in Paris as part of the Music Tech Fest. The team comprises of Magdalena Chudy, Katja Knecht, Nela Brown and Patrizia Carlota.
Description (from EventBrite):
After noticing the low number of women hackers at Music Hack Days, G.Hack decided to put together a series of workshops in which female participants would learn about the culture of software and hardware hacking through short demos and examples, before moving on to building some cool hacks!
For Music Tech Fest Paris 2014, G.Hack prepared a workshop in which participants will learn how to hack a Web Audio API straight through the Google Chrome web browser to make a sound map of Centre Pompidou. The Web Audio API is a high-level JavaScript API for processing and synthesizing audio in web applications. It includes capabilities found in modern game audio engines and some mixing, processing and filtering tasks found in modern desktop audio production applications.
This is a workshop for women beginners with no previous programming experience, though all levels are welcome!
