How many women are here? How many black people are here? How many black women are here?
In this performance, the artists Mari Moura and Joenio M. Costa criticises the absence of women, black people, and black women at the Debian community. The absence of women, black people and black women is part of a systemic racist system that promotes exclusion. The performance act is a call to reflect on the roles and opportunities to change it.
The performance is composed by sound art, performance art, synthesizers, sound samples and live coding using free software tools and Debian, like Sonic Pi, TidalCycles, Super Collider, Le Biniou, PureData, dublang, OBS and other tools, including not only live coding tools but any tool available via textual command line interfaces.
Live coding is a new direction in electronic music and video, live codind artists/programmers expose and rewire the innards of software while it generates improvised music, sound and/or visuals.
