Hi all,
I put in Guenter's help file bug fix (thanks!) and fixed a problem
I was having with alsa falesly detecting mmap when it wasn't really
available... the fixes should be relevant to linux users only, I think.
Not in CVS yet... I have to get to a different machine to do that...
cheers

Hey all,
I'm writing to annouce the start of a new performance and installation project
"Volume Curvature". From the website:
Volume Curvature is a performance piece settled in the body of work known as
Self-Similar. During performance, complex organic volumes are created. I think
of these volumetric forms as virtual kinetic sculpture. The colours, structure
and style of the piece are inspired by the architectural work of Frank Gehry.
The piece is a fusion of the structure of music over time and architecture. This
performance is the first iteration of Volume Curvature. In future development
the piece will be realized as an interactive installation.

For those of you in the US Southwest. There's a couple of slots left for
this, so RSVP if you are interested!

Pure Data workshop
Santa fe, Sunday 20 Feb 2005
1PM-9PM
Library of the College of Santa Fe, Santa Fe New Mexico USA
Cost: $50
Max participants: 8
*participants must bring their own laptop/desktop or make prior
arrangements with me!
Pure Data is a visual, object-oriented data-flow programming language
which can be used for a wide variety of multimedia purposes. These include:
live audio performance
live video processing + "VJing"
MIDI and sensor data handling
microphone and video camera input
"plugin" prototyping
audio and video webstreaming
art installations
interfacing with databases
control of STAMP/PIC-style microprocessors for robotics, lighting & etc
applications
intergration with Flash, Reaktor, Max/MSP, SuperCollider, Proce55ing and
JavaScript via Open Sound Control
...and much much more
Pure Date is free to download, use, modify and share, is open source and
has a huge international user community who are often quite willing to
give pointers. It is commonly used by sound, video and media artists for
performances, installations, web projects and custom devices. Besides
its modular structure, its main advantage is being able to manipulate
data, sound and image all within the same environment.
PD runs on the Linux, OSX, win32 and Irix platforms, allowing it to be
used on almost any hardware, from dektops to palmtops. No previous
programming experience is necessary to learn PD, although a working
knowledge of digital audio and video is recommended.
This workshop will be an 8 hour crash course in the "vocabulary" and
"grammar" of Pure Data, giving the participants enough background in PD
to continue their own explorations in the program, and hopefully to
create a local users-group to continue to help and support each other.
During the course of the day, we will cover:
1) Installation + configuration for Linux, Mac OSX 10.3, Windows
Please note that not all the features of PD are supported under Windows,
including much of the video processing! If this is a concern, please
contact me ahead of time and we can work something out.
2) Pure Data as a Language
Like learning any new language, PD starts with learning vocabulary and
grammer. In this case, we will learn the names of many common objects
and the syntax of how to use them.
3) Pure Data for Sound
PD has powerful signal-processing abilities, and we will explore these
by building a simple, monophonic synthesizer controllable from either a
MIDI device or from the keyboard of your computer.
4) Pure Data for Video
PDP [Pure Data Packet] is an external library for Pure Data which
processes video packets. We will use randomly-generated video noise and
Quicktime video files to explore PD's use as a VJ performance tool.
Please encode any video you would like to use in Quicktime Photo-JPG
compression. PDP is not available for Windows!
5) Pure Data for 3D
GEM is an external library for PD which uses OpenGL for the creation and
manipulation of 3D graphical objects. Images and videos can then be
applied as textures to these objects, and the objects can also be made
to respond to sound, MIDI or other input.
6) Pure Data Examples
We will look at several projects using PD for live performance,
installations and web-based projects.
7) Pure Data Resources
Finally, we will check out where to find more information about PD,
including it's built-in documentation and tutorials, the various
websites devoted to it, the PD mailing list, and hopefully each other.
8) Participant Info
I'll need to know the following info from you if you would like to attend:
---the OS your laptop will run during the workshop [very important!]
---what experience you have with PD/GEM/PDP, Max/MSP/Jitter, Reaktor,
SuperCollider, Flash/ActionScript or similar applications [not required,
I'm just curious...]
---contact phone numbers for you in case something changes
---confirmation that you will be able to attend on Sunday

Hi,
There is a new test release of Pda available from
its new website at:
http://gige.xdv.org/pda
If you are in the rare position of owning a PDA were you can install
Linux, you might try it out and have a Pd system that you can carry
around and play in the metro or on your bicicle.
Note that you need the latest release of the familiar Linux distribution
(0.8) for the iPaqs or of OpenZaurus (3.5.2) for Zauri.

Samplemapper is a soundfile management system for Pure Data which uses
Krzysztof Czaja's Cyclone libray to store and recall samples by
filename. The [samplemapper] abstraction provides a convenient GUI for
storing up to 32 soundfiles in tables. The [mapreader] abstraction
provides a simple and fast method for selecting samples by filename. The
zip file also includes a very basic example sampler "client", called
[ex-sampler].

hi all
Just to let you all know that we have been developing a set of modules
to make OSC.py by Daniel Holtz easier to use. It is called SimpleOSC and
it can be downloaded from
www.ixi-software.net/content/body_backyard_code.html
We developed it for our own use and to help teaching how to use OSC in
python during workshops we give at universities and institutions.
It is not rocket science but we are sure it will help some people
getting into OSC in python, this is why we thought about releasing it.
I use it to comunicate from a Python based interface to and PD sound engine.

Hello everybody,
Mlab Helsinki contributes to the Art’s Birthday 2005 celebration by
organizing NoiseCity Helsinki electro-acoustic music event on Saturday
15th of January (TODAY).
During this event, Clonus Patterns' (Improvisation band from Mlab /
UIAH) performance will start at 21:30 (GMT+2) and it will last 20
min. During Clonus Patterns' Performance you can send text messages
from the following URL and these messages will be part of our
improvisation session. http://noise.uiah.fi/
So, lets play together!! Your messages will control our pd instruments.
Each word, each letter in these text messages will be transformed into
individual sound forms, which will be the part of the Clonus Patterns
improvisation.
We will enable this browser to send messages soon at
http://noise.uiah.fi
For locals, 14561 is the phone number (only for Elisa subscribers) that
you can send your SMS messages to control our pd instruments during the
improvisation session. You need to type "nc" (without quotation marks)
first then the message that you want to send.
ps. we will also steam Art's Birthday NoiseCity Helsinki event from
http://noise.uiah.fi:8000/live
best,
Koray.

Hi all,
I've written up some tutorials for interfacing Microchip PICs with PD.
It's light on the PD side of things at the moment, but there's more to
come. Let me know what you think.

hi all ...
i just uploaded the new version of the volctl~ external to both the cvs
and my website (www.geocities.com/themokabar/software.html)
volctl~ does the same as:
| | |
| |pack f f|
| |
| |line~|
| |
|*~|
|
but it's using handcoded sse instructions to save cpu speed ...
changes: - simd optimized ramps
- working runtime dispaching

hi all ...
i wrote two new externals for threaded patching:
detatch: the message to the inlet will be sent to the outlet, but all
functions called as result of this message run in a helper thread.
join: the message to the inlet will be sent to the outlet during the
next idle callback of the scheduler. it doesn't matter, which thread the
message was coming from. messages from the main pd thread will be
rescheduled.
detatch requires the latest devel_0_38 branch, since it uses a modified
version of thomas grill's new stack management.
join requires a recent version of devel_0_38, since it's using idle
callbacks.
warning: both externals provide the possibility of threaded patching.
beware of the risks:
- not every pd object is thread-safe (if unsure, look at the source
code)
- pd is not completely thread-safe itself
- everything that is triggered by the detatched message will be
detatched. don't mix threaded and non-threaded message paths unless you
know what you are doing. use the join external to synchronize with the
main pd thread!!!!
- if detatch/join crashes pd during a performance, don't complain ... i
warned you
- both detatch and join have an overhead ... so only use them, if you
really need threaded patching, e.g. have a subpatch that has to run for
quite some time and would interrupt audio...
if you still want to try it ... have a lot of fun ...
it's available on cvs only atm ...
cheers ... tim

hola,
before that Santa Klaus leaves the base,
i will release this version of P.i.D.i.P.
that tries to escape from patents issue
by offering a full support for ogg/theora video format
( reading, writing & streaming in & out ).
so, here is the usual CHANGES.LOG :
#######################################################################
0.12.18 ( codename Benisensi )
added pdp_icedthe~ : a threaded theora stream reader ( from flumotion or
icecast )
added pdp_theonice~ : a theora a/v streamer ( to flumotion or icecast )
the icecast server can be found here : http://mediacast1.com/~karl/
added pdp_mapper : a pixel mapper ( copying regions and single pixels )
modified pdp_theorin~ : removed loop option, added mutexes
modified pdp_live~ : added mutexes
modified pdp_ascii : added T. de la O. charmaps
fixed pdp_ffmpeg~ : fixed framerate control
fixed pdp_binary : fixed wrong diff calculation
#######################################################################
the theora streaming has been tested against icecast2 and flumotion,
and, what's the most incredible,
it is that it is compatible.
enjoy! disfruta! and wait for Santa Klaus..
oh, the url, of course :

This is my first composition using Pd's data structures, and I found
that I enjoyed the process quite a bit, once I got the patch debugged.
The experience was a good combination of visual editing with the mouse
and text editing with the keyboard. The visual representation worked
well for composition in this style. By biggest problem was finding a
way to represent in the score all of the things that I wanted to
control. Since I wanted to have the score generate the piece, I did not
add a couple features, like pitch shifting and voice allocation
control, which I would have liked to have.
You can download the mp3, see the score, and download the source code
here:

Remixes would be fun. The code is released under GNU GPL, the mp3

Hi all,
Thanks to Patrick and Cyril for flagging errors in my menu key-equivalent
stuff... I've released test 13 to try to fix them.
I think I fixed the problem Patrick had (ctrl+e broken) but only hope I've
fixed Cyril's ("ctrl+1" meaningless on French keyboards where "1" needs the
shift key).
I'm also only hoping I've fixed the Finnish "$" problem on Macintosh.

Hi all,
Pd 0.38 test 12 is on the usual:
http://crca.ucsd.edu/~msp/software.html
I hope that, among other things, this fixes the problem of typing in
"alt" characters such as "$" on a Finnish keyboard... I can't test this as
my keyboard has no regular ASCII characters on the "alt" keys.
Also I fixed the delay timing problem, "help" for macintosh, and
made "startup flags" work.
cheers
Miller
