Live Coding for art, sound and visuals (BoF)

This is a call to people interested on live coding (to produce sound and visuals) to meet and discuss the topic in a free way, below some initial ideas:

	* Share knowledge among us. Why?
	* The tooling to setup a functional environment to produce sound and/or visuals are a little tricky, then, learn through real user cases would be great. 
	* Where is the Debian in the relationship between the Art and Science?
	* Are there any opportunities to improve Debian to be a bit more user friendly to Live Coding artists?

## Opportunities to improve Debian to be a bit more user friendly to Live Coding artists?

TODO

	* Open RFPs (or ITPs) for the missing packages (in  case there are none)
	* Create a specific team around live coding on Debian looks a good idea
		* How to protect users to avoid "issues" on sound system when using live coding tools
	* Start documenting how to setup, also some issues etc...
	* How are the licenses of those environments, are there free license?

## Debian: Art x Science x Technology
