SALON 256 is a forum for presentation and discussion of very small creative computer programs. Such programs have featured in digital art and poetry, electronic literature, computer music, and the demoscene.
YOU are invited to present a tiny program of yours:
Monday May 1 . 5pm-7pm . MIT’s 14E-304
Presenters already confirmed:
- Mike “Dr.Claw” Piantedosi
- Angela Chang
- Sofian Audry
- Nick Montfort
- Chris Kerich
- Willy Wu
- Henry Lieberman
- Doug Orleans
Programs in an interpreted language are fine, as long as the code is 256 bytes or less; compiled programs with an executable file of 256b or less are fine, too.
Building 14 also holds the Hayden Library and is not Building E14.
If you’d like to present, leave a comment or sign up at the event.

Hi Nick, I have a program to present if there’s room:

Doug, great! There is room, and you’re on the list.
FYI, I finally got around to making a version that runs in the browser: http://steak.place.org/randomwalk/
I didn’t try to keep it to 256 bytes, because I doubt it is possible…
Very nice, Doug! Thanks for this. The code, if not 256 bytes, is clear and will be reusable by those who wish to fork your steak.place.
