"Give us access to the performer’s mind, to the whole human instrument.
Obscurantism is dangerous. Show us your screens.
Programs are instruments that can change themselves
The program is to be transcended - Artificial language is the way.
Code should be seen as well as heard, underlying algorithms viewed as well as their visual outcome.
Live coding is not about tools. Algorithms are thoughts. Chainsaws are tools. That’s why algorithms are sometimes harder to notice than chainsaws."
