This workshop assumes basic scripting experience on the part of attendees but does not assume any prior knowledge of bipscript. Core topics include working with instrument and effects plugins, MIDI and OSC messages. More advanced topics can be addressed if time permits. Software prerequisites are the latest bipscript and the CALF plugin pack, participants should bring a portable computer with these installed.
