m-log workshop at SPACE led by Owl Project m-Log workshop led by Owl Project plus special guest Leafcutter John. A two day workshop including all the materials needed to build & customise an m-Log to your own spec! m-Log is a hand-held wooden controller interface. The m-Log fits in the palm of the hand and is made using a semicircular cross section of a branch (Just like the iLog). Inside the m-Log is the muio interface ( http://www.facebook.com/l/;www.muio.org ). Available with a rage of built in sensor inputs (light sensors, accelerometers etc) it has plug in and play compatibility with a wide variety of applications, notably MAX MSP/jitter, SuperCollider and Open Frameworks. Get your saw* and soldering iron ready and join a community of owners and start developing and sharing your own patches to use on one of the worlds rarest digital interfaces. During a two day session participants will be taken through constructing an mLog circuit, drilling the holes for the switches, building software audio instruments in SuperCollider and MAX MSP and finally a little sanding and oiling. Using minimal amounts of electronics combined with the simple and flexible material of wood we aim to return a sense of the of craft and individuality to the production of modern hand held technology. We look forward to making and developing m-Logs with you. http://www.facebook.com/l/;www.owlproject.com * In the kit all wood will be pre cut and ready for assembly To book go to http://www.facebook.com/l/;mlogworkshop.eventbrite.com/
