Interview with Phil Durrant on his use of Reaktor and laptops for performance

On the Kore spinoff pages of Create Digital Music there is an interesting interview with one of the most prolific people on the Reaktor user forum - Phil Durrant (aka "sowari"). In the interview he discusses his approaches to building within Reaktor, his use of the laptop in a performance context and some of his influences.
He makes a pretty strong case for trying to get a smuch interactivity out of the standard laptop (QWERTY keys and trackpad) as possible.

Below is a video of Phil's Trio Sowari.

Moldover - controllerism

matrixsynth has a collection of youtube videos from Moldover discussing controllerism.

Moldover is a performance artist who uses custom modified MIDI controllers and audio software like Reaktor and Ableton Live to create his own music live.

In the videos he shows and discusses his approach to customising controllers, selecting and organising audio clips and performance concepts. His methods are all about keeping things as simple as possible in order to make his performances as smooth as possible.

Reaktor: DSP & Core

If you're into Reaktor in a heavy way Native Instruments have posted some tutorials here. They take you some pretty complex stuff to do with filters.
According to Stephan Schmitt (from NI):

"The articles are in a very condensed scientific style. They definitely require some academic education and DSP knowledge. They are accompanied by two tutorials helping you to implement and to try out the discussed methods in Reaktor Core. Those who dive into this material will be rewarded by some deep insights into the design of filters."

The official documnetation for the Core system within Reaktor can be found here.
