Once in a while we are participating in an event in our own country. That’s an event by itself!
This will be the case next February where the academic group iMAL will host us.
In their own words, iMAL is a Center for Digital Cultures and Technology, a place where the artists are frequently coders, and average musicians carry network cables.

The event is spread over three days.

The exhibition of prototype installations and performances are open to all on Saturday and Sunday.
The main language during conferences and workshops is French, but Q&A sessions can be held in English.

Friday 19 and Saturday 20
Professional days with conferences and presentation of ongoing works at iMAL, dida, GMEA and LaBRI
Among other topics, we’ll hear about Jamoma/tapemovie, the Virage interactive sequencer, the Engine for newbies, and CopperLan.
Performances and installations in the evening.

Sunday 21
Various performances and installations

Our ties with the academic community are bearing fruit. Their (sometimes outlandish) needs and unbridled creativity have pushed us into new territories.

Many interesting developments are brewing. We are excited to reveal them to you as they will unfold over the next months.
The end result of these exchanges is that we now have a more versatile CopperLan than before.

We would like to thank the people at IRCAM, CICM-MSH, LaBRI, Didascalie, GMEA, CNRS, ENSATT, GMEM, iMAL, ISTS, BEK, and GRAME for their great support.

We always welcome interested academic communities to join us.

For quite a while, we've had good ties with the people at IRCAM. So far, the relationship was of a rather 'academic' type!
This is to say, they were waiting for us to deliver some hardware development platform in order to start the hard work.

Now that the hardware SDK is available, we should hear from them before too long.

We can’t wait to see the result coming out of this wedding of art and technology that the IRCAM is renowned for.
