Using Pure Data on Android Apps

Presenter: Antonio Deusany de Carvalho Junior

Pure Data (PD) is a visual programming language intended for multimedia applications. The language is used by musicians and musical performers especially because it is easy-to-use. PD can process flows of digital signals and can be applied to game development, computer music, music computing, computer graphics and image processing. The language is compatible with many operation systems including iOS and Android and can be embeded on languages that support native code like C, Java, Objective-C an Python (including PyGame).

We will present some exampĺes about how to integrate PD into Android Apps using some solutions like "libpd". Some programs will be shown to stimulate further growth of use. Anyone with Android devices (2.3.3 and up) will have the opportunity to test musical Apps during the presentation. After the presentation there will be some time to ask about how to integrate custom PD patches with Android, so bring your patches with you!
