A Cup of Jamoma: A Collage of Music, Video, and Discussion featuring the artists and programmers behind Jamoma.

If you are a Live Music or Live Video Artist who uses or is interested in using Max/MSP/Jitter, you need to see what Jamoma is capable of.  Jamoma is a series of easy-to-use modules for use in Max/MSP/Jitter. They were designed around the principle that you want to spend more time creating you art and less time programming, debugging, and documenting.

A Cup of Jamoma features Jamoma contributors Nathan Wolek, Trond Lossius, and Cycling ‘74 Research Engineer Timothy Place. Come hear, see, and discuss what Jamoma can do and why it should be part of your creative process.
