THE NEW PULSAR GENERATOR (nuPG) WORKSHOP
The workshop focuses on sound synthesis and composition with the New Pulsar Generator (nuPG) program designed by Marcin Pietruszewski in SuperCollider 3 programming language. The session will open with a brief introduction to fundamental concepts of pulsar synthesis, its theoretical and historical background, as well as links to other fields of research such as speech synthesis and data sonification. The main part of the workshop will be devoted to compositional work with the nuPG program - through an exploration of its various elements and extensions, Graphic User Interface and live-coding control approaches, participants will have a chance to experiment with their own ideas and to draw experimental micro pieces. The standalone version of the nuPG program runs on macOS only. Bring your laptops and headphones.

NOTE: All participants will receive the nuPG program and documentation. A download link will be emailed a week prior to the workshop.
INSTRUCTOR
Marcin Pietruszewski (born 1984) a composer and researcher. He is engaged in sound synthesis and composition with computers, exploring specific formal developments in the tradition of electroacoustic music and contemporary sound art, as well as extra-musical domains of auditory design, computational linguistics and psychoacoustics. He works across performance, multimedia installation and radio productions. Recurring interests include synthetic sound, algorithmic systems and an integration of text and voice as compositional materials.
He has collaborated extensively with musicians and composers - e.g., Marcus Schmickler (performed and recorded Schmickler's Demos for choir, chamber quintet and electronics), Tristan Clutterbuck (fancyyyyy), Jules Rawlinson (modular synthesiser and laptop duo), Lauren Sarah Hayes and Florian Hecker. Works exhibited at Remote Viewing (Philadelphia, 2019), Institute of Contemporary Arts (London, 2017) and CTM/Transmediale (Berlin, 2016). Commissions by ICST Zurich (2020), ZKM Karlsruhe (2018) and Deutschlandradio Kultur (2016).
He is an Associated Lecturer of Creative Music Practice at the Reid School of Music at Edinburgh University and writer focused on histories of computer music, its aesthetic and technology.
