Become a sponsor to Ben Kuper

Hi !
I'm Ben, I am a musician, digital artist and developer.

I discovered DIY technology during my cinema/CG school, and self-taught programming and electronics while studying CG and orchestra conducting.
At this time, I started to understand the power of the open-source community and quickly wanted to be an active part of it.

As both an artist and technician for artists, I focused on tools that can help the digital art and tech art community by enabling new ways of creation, making complicated things easy to use for both non-developers and developers, and sharing my artistic projects.

I am now travelling the world, working with a lot of different artists and teams over the world and giving workshops and talks, and I make it a priority that every line of code I write ends up on github, whether it's tool development or during the creation of a show.

@benkuper

This would allow me to dedicate full days to creating and improving the tools, videos and documentation (instead of doing it at night !) - Also I'll be able to continue creating my dream music project "Interactive Orchestra"
