 It will show how the QuteCsound frontend can serve as a python IDE for the processing of note events to be generated, transformed, sent live, or looped for a running Csound process.
-===== how to write parallel audio applications for multicore processors with Faust =====
+===== Developing parallel audio applications with FAUST =====
+While the number of cores of our CPUs is expected to double every new generation, writing efficient parallel applications that can benefit from all these cores, remain a complex and highly technical task. The problem is even more complex for real-time audio applications that require low latencies and thus relatively fine-grained parallelism.
+In order to facilitate the development of parallel audio application, the FAUST compiler developed at GRAME provides two powerful options to automatically produce parallel code. The first one is based on the OpenMP standard, while the second one uses Posix pthreads directly. This hands on demo will give the audience the opportunity to discover these parallelization facilities, their limits and their benefits, on concrete examples of audio applications.
+===== Making Waves [3h+]=====
+A workshop introducing Campcaster, an open source radio management
+application for use by both small and large radio stations (yes, real
+radio stations, not internet radio) to schedule radio shows.
+Learn the first steps of operating a radio station, including
+scheduling, live studio broadcast, play-out and even remote automation
+and networking via the web, all using free software. The workshop will
+take participants through hardware set-ups, software installations and
+studio configurations, resulting in the creation of a fully-functioning
+Linux Audio Conference station.
+The workshop will be led by Micz Flor and Adam Thomas, key members of
+Sourcefabric. Sourcefabric is a new organisation formed by the team
+behind Campcaster, which has been developing open source solutions for
+independent media in developing countries for more than 10 years.
+Date and time: Monday 03 May\\
+Number of places: 8\\
+Requirements: Ideally, but not essentially, participants should bring their own laptop with Linux installed\\
+Links:
+  * [[http://www.sourcefabric.org]]
+  * [[http://campcaster.campware.org/]]
+Campcaster packages are available for Debian and Ubuntu (Lucid and Karmic) at [[http://robin.linuxaudio.org/deb/]]
+===== Supercollider ====
+We're seeing what kind of [[supercollider]] workshop(s) may be possible, interesting and to whom
+===== Creative Commons =====
+Various workshops and information sessions about CC
+====== Linux Audio: a bird's-eye view ======
+Two sessions, 1.5 hrs each
