Subject: [AUDITORY] Call for Submissions : PDMax Con 2025 From: Sharath Chandra Ramakrishnan <looplogic@xxxxxxxx> Date: Wed, 9 Apr 2025 13:02:13 -0500--0000000000007861ec06325c4501 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="UTF-8" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Dear all The PdMaxCon25 (Pure Data/ Max Msp) is soliciting submissions in the tracks of Music, Installations, Research, and Demos/Workshops. All submissions must rely on Max or Pd software in some way. Pure Data (Pd) and Max are graphical programming environments for audio and video. They were originally authored by Professor Emeritus Miller Puckette (UC San Diego). Max is named after composer Max Matthews. Pd is open source, and Max is developed by Cycling =E2=80=9974, now a subsidiary of Ab= leton. David Zicarelli is the founder and CEO of Cycling =E2=80=9974 and the head = of development for Max. Independent artists to industry experts use Max and Pd as part of their regular practice. Their graphical programming environments also make them excellent pedagogical tools for teaching programming, algorithmic composition, sound design, digital signal processing, and more. Universities around the world include Pd and Max in their curriculum. Pd has an ad hoc conference, the PdCon, convened through grassroots initiatives by its community. We are hosting an expanded PdMaxCon at the University of Illinois. In 2025, Pd will be approximately 30 years old. Max is approximately 40 years old. In light of these milestones, we will create a more inclusive Pd-Con to accommodate the addition of the Max community. Miller Puckette and David Zicarelli will be our keynote speakers. The conference will include research presentations, musical events, demos, and workshops. Submissions will undergo double-blind peer review. Registration for the conference will be free, and all events will be open to the public. However, as we do not have funds to support travel and accommodation, the delegates will be responsible for those costs. *Submission Guidelines: * There will be four tracks: Music, Installations, Research, Demos/Workshops *Submission link:* https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=3Dpdmaxcon25 *Important Dates:* C *all for submissions: https://easychair.org/cfp/PdMaxCon25 <https://easychair.org/cfp/PdMaxCon25>Submission link: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=3Dpdmaxcon25 <https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=3Dpdmaxcon25>Deadline for submissions: May 16Reviews to be completed: June 20Delegates announced: July 11Registration/Confirmation of attendance: July 18 (Registration is free)Final program released: August 1* *Full details here :* https://music.illinois.edu/pd-max-con/ *Organizing Committee : * *Kerry L Hagan, ChairEli Fieldsteel, Research ChairJake Metz, Music Co-Chair, Installations Co-ChairSharath Chandra Ramakrishnan, Installations Co-ChairNathan Mandel, FacilitiesStephen A TaylorMarc Trevisani* --=20 Sharath Chandra Ramakrishnan *(M.S., Ph.D.)* *Assistant Professor* University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign scram@xxxxxxxx <http://illinois.edu/> --0000000000007861ec06325c4501 Content-Type: text/html; charset="UTF-8" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable <div dir=3D"ltr"><div>Dear all</div><div><br></div><div>The PdMaxCon25 (Pur= e Data/ Max Msp)=C2=A0 is soliciting submissions in the tracks of Music, In= stallations, Research, and Demos/Workshops.
