SuperCollider, being a free and open-source project, stands in contrast to non-open projects in that it doesn’t impose technical and legal barriers to users accessing and modifying its inner workings.
Rather than a strict separation, this allows for a gradient between user and developer. There are still, however, technical and social complexities involved in contributing to such a big project, which this workshop seeks to address.
It will guide through the landscape of the SuperCollider project, easy passages as well as dense forests, and show how to participate in development, at all levels, with or without coding.
With this workshop, we hope to invite participation and spread knowledge about the interesting experience of maintaining and extending a widely used computer music language.
