Hello everybody, here a quick feedback about my participation (unfortunately only online) at the Audio Developer Conference 2024 ( https://audio.dev/). I was presenting Phausto (https://github.com/lucretiomsp/phausto) on 3 daily poster sessions in the virtual venue, and at the open-mic session ( https://youtu.be/fVw80P_8RMs). The open-mic session was attended by ~50 people from all around the world. The poster sessions were attended by 2 groups of 30 people, and I have 1-to-1 interactions with other 15 people. Just a couple of people knew something about Pharo, and around 10 have heard about Smalltalk. Everybody appreciated the simplicity of Phausto and how quick it is to develop DSP and export them to other languages (Cmajor, C++). Everybody was really impressed by Iceberg and the easiness of doing tests with Pharo, also really one enjoyed having the language and the IDE all together. In general, the audience seems to evaluate Phausto as the more accessible alternative to audio development with C++, and I am really happy because this is one of the main goals of the project . I was not the only one talking about Smalltalk this year, because the final keynote talk was made by Carla Scaletti, creator of Kyma, who extensively talk about Smalltalk at the end of its talk. Here an extract of one of her slides. Have a nice day. Domenico Cipriani [image: Screenshot 2024-11-13 at 18.10.53.png]
