Q. Is it possible to apply earlier than the specified application date?

A: The application starts on July 1 only. Please apply from this date. We however, recommend you to apply as early as possible from this date, because it usually reaches the maximum number of participants in a short period.
 
Q: Is it necessary to bring a computer?

A: We highly recommend you to bring one yourself, such as Powerbook or iBook. The computer should be Macintosh PowerPC, G3 or G4, and Max/MSP should be previously installed. However, it is possible to participate without any computer.
Q: I don't have Jitter yet. Is it OK to participate the workshop?

A: In fact, Jitter is not released yet. This will be shown first time during this workshop in public. The participants will practice this with the trial versions. Therefore, it is not necessary to own this beforehand.
 
Q: Is it possible to participate this workshop, although I don't have Max/MSP?

A: If you bring your computer, please install this in your hard disk. You can download Max/MSP from the web site of Cycling'74. You can use this as a trial version without any payment. It however, lasts only for 30 days.
Q: Does Max/MSP have to be the latest version?

A: The lecture is usually based upon the latest version of Max/MSP. Therefore, it is recommended to upgrade your Max/MSP. Since Jitter only functions on the latest version, it is required to upgrade this, if you intend to participate the Jitter workshop.
 
Q: I don't have much experience in Max/MSP. Will it be OK to participate this?

A: We recommend that you have some previous knowledge in Max/MSP. You can also download a manual of Max/MSP from the web site of Cycling'74 in order to get some ideas.
Q: What should I bring besides Max/MSP and a computer?

A: During the workshop, you can be asked to use a headphone (with a mini-plug), and an audio CD. The CD can be any sorts of music. If possible, we recommend you to bring an extension cable of electric power and a cable of Ethernet (or AirMac card).
 
Q: Is it possible to park my car near the university?

A: We are afraid that we are not able to be responsible for any parking space at all. Therefore, we are obliged to ask you to park your car in a parking lot near the Hamamatsu station. It is merely 10-minute walk from the venue.
Q: I am worrying about a room to stay...?

A: We will announce information about hotels in out web site soon. Please check information there, but we cannot reserve a room for you.
 
Q: I can't participate a whole schedule. Is it possible to participate only the days I can?

A: Yes, you can, but we don't have a system of daily tuition. We are not able to refund the lectures that you are absent.
Q: Can I use Internet there?

A: We are sorry, but you can not use Internet here. If you need to check your email etc. please do so in your hotel room.
