An audio/visual showcase from the international live coding and algorave scene, hosting top artists from Mexico City and NYC.

Live coding is where artists make music and visuals by writing and manipulating code. We held the first ever live coding festival here in Access Space in 2007, and it has since grown into an international movement, with algoraves taking place in over 80 cities.

Line-up:

Malitzin Cortes a.k.a CNDSD + Ivan Abreu (MX) explore the poetic possibilities of live code writing for musical and visual improvisation (Live Coding), they are also interested in the expressive visualization of musical algorithmic structures and the use of generative cinema to resignify sound improvisation and the practices of live cinema.

Codie (a.k.a Sarah Groff Hennigh-Palermo and Melody Loveless, NYC): Sound + light. Described by others as "alien pop", this music is made with love and code. The visuals aim to sweep you away. https://codie.live/

Ulysses Popple (NYC): A member of livecode.nyc, seeking out new ways to bring interactivity to visuals. [ https://www.youtube.com/user/upopple ]
