(glitch A/V feedback goodness)
instagram: @hellocatfood
hellocatfood is the alias of Antonio Roberts, an artist and musician based in Birmingham, UK and a long-time livecoder who has performed around the world. For his live performances he uses software including Pure Data to explore the creative potential of algorithms, glitches, and feedback loops. Recent gigs include Late at the Tate Modern as part of the Electric Dreams exhibition of computer art.
ideoforms
(livecoded experimental ambient)
ideoforms (Daniel John Jones), https://soundcloud.com/ideoforms, is a UK-based artist whose work explores new ways in which sound and technology can illuminate our understanding of the world. His BAFTA-nominated practice spans topics ranging from bacterial dynamics to network infrastructures, and has been shown at venues including the Centre Pompidou, Barbican, the Museum of Science and Industry, IRCAM, the Southbank Centre, and the Royal Institution of Great Britain. As one half of Jones/Bulley, this involves creating large-scale sculptural sound installations, exploring forest ecosystems (Living Symphonies, 2014-2023), global ecologies of human-recorded audio (Maelstrom, 2012-2022), FM radio broadcasts (Radio Reconstructions, 2012-), and weather systems (Variable 4, 2011-).
The Printer Jam
BITPRINT (Evan) & Project Cassiel (Nick) — (hard industrial ambient; music plastique)
The Printer Jam (Project Cassiel X BITPRINT) is a performance duo using livecoding to take advantage of the unintentionally musical mechanical motions of 3D printing. The performers create 3D printed objects that activate the printer motors at certain musical pitches and rhythms which are captured live, processed and looped, building up both physical objects and brooding, brutalist soundscapes. Each performance and its resulting artefacts are unique experiences for audience and performers alike.

MOO (Charles Hutchins x Shelly Knotts)
@celesteh@post.lurk.org
...is a text-based virtual reality jam. Join us as we explore fantastic virtual worlds, while live coding sounds.
Domifare (Charles Hutchins)
@celesteh@post.lurk.org
...is an answer to the age-old problem of how to live code and play tuba at the same time. This live coding language is entered via playing tuba.
