About Pd-L2Ork
Pd-L2Ork is a fork of the ubiquitous Pure-Data focusing on improved user
interface, expanded collection of externals, and an advanced SVG-enabled
graphical front-end. Originally it was introduced as the core
infrastructure for the Linux Laptop Orchestra (L2Ork
http://l2ork.icat.vt.edu), and has since expanded to include K-12
learning module with a unique learning environment offering adaptable
granularity that has been utilized in over dozen maker workshops and
initiatives, including the Raspberry Pi Orchestra program for middle
school children introduced in the summer 2014. Today, pd-l2ork is being
developed by a growing number of international collaborators and
contributors.
