dadageek is excited to offer this hands-on workshop on @hydravideosynth led by multidisciplinary artist @diego.chavez.io whose work spans generative visuals, live coding, and audiovisual performance with the group @a.m.architect_

In this session, Diego will walk through Hydra from the ground up, using live coding to build and manipulate visuals in real time, a flexible approach for VJing and live performance. This workshop functions as a hands-on technical class, building step by step from simple lines of code to layered, audio-reactive visuals.

Join us at United By Design for EMERGENCE: A Style Scapes event, for an evening dedicated to exploring and discussing the visual language behind our summer projects. Presenters Diego Chavez (@diego.chavez.io), AJ Rose (@aj_from_uxd), and Maddie Davila (@_maddie.jean) will walk through our mood board and style scape process we use to shape the direction of our work, giving you a behind-the-scenes look at how ideas become cohesive visual stories.

After the presentation, the floor will open up for anyone who wants to bring their own projects to life. Whether you are working on something personal or professional, you are welcome to stay and build your own mood boards and style scapes in a creative, open setting alongside others doing the same. Come ready to look, think, and create!

Built a plugin for @daydreamlive_ Scope that generates organic, evolving cellular automata as a live video source, fed into the Krea Realtime pipeline with custom 14B LORAs.
Big thanks to the DayDream team for the support and for recognizing this work with an award. Means a lot.

This Friday, Music in the Park with @krtu917fm returns with an evening of sound and light featuring @nori.band, the Austin-based ensemble led by vocalist Akina Adderley. Their expansive, jazz-rooted sound sets the tone for a night of genre-bending music.

Artist @diego.chavez.io joins us with real-time creative-coding projections that respond to rhythm, movement, and the atmosphere of the plaza, drawing inspiration from Sensing Meaning: Abstract Painting.

Bring a picnic blanket, settle in, and enjoy live music, complimentary light bites from @fattummyempanadas, and drinks.
Free and open to all. taken in Ruby City by @diego.chavez.io

Had an awesome time mixing live coded visuals with analog video feedback at the Flow State workshop held at the Confluence park class room. I feel really excited and happy to be a part of building a community here in San Antonio for creative coders/techs and new media artists. Shoutout to @diego.chavez.io for getting a grant through @sariverfoundation and @ashleymireles for making this opportunity possible! Keep an eye out for more meet ups like this! by @diego.chavez.io
