Although blandly described as a versatile programmer's editor, free software GNU Emacs serves as a prototype for a truly artistic operating system with ready code exposure and political intent. GNU Emacs presents code, in this case the Emacs Lisp language, as interface; extension becomes application and mode of use within a highly textual environment which embraces networked infrastructure and information resources, local and remote shells, and common language interpreters. GNU Emacs branches out spider-style to operate as automated text editor, advanced publishing tool, multimedia authoring environment, mail client, IDE, shell, and mind-mapping system, as well as serving as adventurous exploratory code vehicle. The workshop will commence with the basics of navigation and everyday use (accessing help, moving through buffers), before addressing GNU Emacs as application development environment for artists with simple Lisp coding exercise, and interface to other software such as SuperCollider and PD. The workshop will make use of the http://1010.co.uk/pickle.el file References: http://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/ http://www.1010.co.uk/emacsch.html http://www.1010.co.uk/emacs.html Requirements: Some platform running GNU Emacs 22/23.
