After much procrastination, the Greater Boston live coding community has an official website!

About

We are a loose and friendly collective of live code artists in the boston area.

Live Coding. noun
A performance art practice where an artist writes & manipulates code live, often to produce electronic music or visuals.

Some of us are regular performers, others are just excited to learn and hang out with friends who share our passion for live coding. Most of us are also involved with boston tech poetics.

See all events.

Call for participation

We are looking for ideas on what members of our community want from a website! I (ludens) think it would be nice to set up:

  • Upcoming events (with RSS/Atom feed)
  • A blogroll: feed of posts from your blogs
  • Helpful links: communal bookmarks

We are also looking for more people to help pitch in and organize/run events. If you are inclined, sign up for the announcements mailing list.

Contributing

The source code project for this site is available on sourcehut at ~glfmn/livecode.boston.

You don’t need an account to participate, you can send patches or start discussion via email using the ~glfmn/livecode.boston-devel mailing list.

You can also subscribe to ~glfmn/livecode.boston-announce to get infrequent updates about the website.

The site uses a static site generator called hugo which is pretty easy to install, and decently easy to use.

With sourcehut, we can set things up so community members can easily submit new events or posts via email, and then Sourcehut can automatically redeploy the site through sourcehut pages.
