For the last five years, I’ve seemed to have a more-or-less annual fight with my Linux workstations over installing CUDA to keep on doing GPU-accelerated musical machine learning research with TensorFlow and Keras.

Now’s the time of year that I get started with a new crop of Honours, Master and project students at the ANU School of Computing and at the UiO Department of Informatics.

Over the last few years I’ve been invited to perform at several concerts with Martyn Jolley as part of his Heritage in the Limelight project. Martyn and fellow researcher Elisa deCourcy have been exploring magic lantern slide projection from a historical perspective and for creative re-use.

This is a workshop designed for students who have never done any coding before to start by making some computer music! Here’s the description:

So you’re a student working on an individual project this semester (how exciting!) and your supervisor has asked you to submit the software as well as a report. So how are you going to present this great work? An email? A zipfile? A USB key?

This is part 2 of my series of posts on online teaching in 2020; this time I’m going to write about how we set up tutorials for COMP2300 in Microsoft Teams.
