Estuary

The development of Estuary is the result of ongoing work by many individuals, with the benefit of generous public and institutional support.

Key contributions to work on the Estuary platform itself include:

Ongoing development and maintenance of Estuary by the Estuary development team, coordinated by David Ogborn, with members who have included Jamie Beverley, Alejandro Franco Briones, Alex MacLean, Luis Navarro del Angel, Matthew Paine, Spencer Park, and Jessica Rodriguez.
Estuary was born as part of research project supported by Canada's Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council (SSHRC): "Projectional interfaces for musical live coding" (2015-17, principal investigator: David Ogborn, co-applicant: Jacques Carette, collaborators: Alex McLean and Eldad Tsabary)
Estuary development continues as part of a second SSHRC-funded research project: "Platforms and practices for networked, language-neutral live coding" (2018-23, principal investigator: David Ogborn, co-applicant: Eldad Tsabary, collaborator: Shelly Knotts)
Most Estuary development happens in and around the Networked Imagination Laboratory, a research space at McMaster University created with support from the Canada Foundation for Innovation, Ontario's Ministry of Research and Innovation, and McMaster's Faculty of Humanities.
Estuary's codebase builds upon the work of many others. Special thanks to the creators/maintainers of the tools used to build Estuary: GHCJS and the Reflex FRP platform!
Last but not least... Estuary development would not be possible without the many individuals and groups that have made it a part of their explorations of live coding. Thank you!
