R is a free programming language for data analysis, which is defined as a multiparadigm: functional, vectorial, imperative, procedural, object-oriented. These characteristics enable the extended plasticity of its potential as a computational language, being used both for the development of scientific research based on data, and in artistic experimentation, among others.
Art as a transversal language leaves open its ability to subvert what is established. In this axiom, we propose to use R for the creation of an audiovisual artistic staging, through passages of algorithms and codes, using specific libraries for the generation of audio and images, which interact with other languages and programs for Live Coding such as Supercollider and Tidal Cycles.
This live presentation will take place as an audiovisual concert at Festival Piksel 20, and is part of the Rstart project (www.rstart.cl), which was born out of the concern to experiment with various multiparadigm free computer programs for transversal creation and production. between media arts, science and digital culture.
