## Preparations

A list of suggestions that will make your time at the workshop even more productive:

### Nice to have

The following suggestions are totally optional, so please don't worry if you can't fulfill them:

  • Coding experience
  • We will help you if you have no idea at all
  • MIDI controller that can be connected via USB to the computer
  • We will have some spare MIDI controllers for you to use, but if you want to buy one we can recommend the KORG nanoKONTROL 2 because it comes for a reasonable price, is portable & has a lot of buttons, faders and knobs
  • Arduino IDE if you want to put code onto the Arduino (if not then we will do this for you)

## Schedule

### Workshop: 10am to ~ 4pm

  • Intro: What are visuals & lights?
  • Visualize music with modV
  • Control lights with luminave
  • Connect modV & luminave with each other
  • Outro: How to perform live!

### Party: 10pm to ~ 6am

In the evening after the workshop we will have a party in the same location (super awesome house with a garden in the center of the city) with several DJs playing electronic music. If you want to use the knowledge you gained from the workshop in a live setup, then we are happy to host you. If you just want to relax after a long day, you are also free to do so.

## Notes

Please take a look at the preperations at https://github.com/TimPietrusky/visual-and-light-workshop

None of the above is strictly required but at least a computer with the installed software would make your experience significantly better.

As space is a bit tight make sure you RSVP if you want to make sure you're not left out.
