I’ll be performing my piece John Henry von Neumann at Machine Project from 10-6 on Sunday June 28th. Come watch me compete against a computer to complete a drawing in an eight-hour workday. I will use pen and paper while the computer uses a plotter. More info on the Machine Project site.

I’m teaching a 4 day intensive workshop on iPhone development at Machine Project. The course is designed to be a good introduction to Xcode, Objective-C and making real-world applications for the AppStore. We won’t cover the basics of programming, so some programming experience is required.
The workshop starts July 5th and meets 4 times. For more info check out the course page.
A few of my students have run into an issue where the right speaker is distorted when playing audio through Minim or Sonia. After much googling we found a somewhat convoluted solution:
1) Go to Applications / Utilities and open Audio MIDI Setup.

2) In the drop-down labeled “Properties For” choose “Built-in Line Output.”

3) Under “Audio Output,” set the format to “44100.0 Hz.”

4) Quit Audio MIDI Setup and restart Processing.
