Summary: | Orca is a live coding environment based on one-letter alphanumeric operators, different from the English-based commands of other coding or patching tools. Our main hypothesis is that the one-letter operators that regulate Orca’s functioning might make it a much more accessible environment, especially for those users that may benefit from an alternative to the dominant English language. In this preliminary paper, we also present our hypothesis in terms of Orca’s interactions and contradictions vis-à-vis Creative Semantic Anchoring (ASC). |
