MAKE ART 2008 - OpenOS
CALL FOR PROJECTS
Make Art is an international festival dedicated to the integration of
Free/Libre Open Source Software (FLOSS) in digital art.
The third edition of make art - OpenOS - will take place in
Poitiers (FR), from the 24th to the 30th of November 2008.
make art offers performances, presentations, workshops and an
exhibition, focused on the blurred line between art and software
programming.
We're currently seeking new, innovative FLOSS based works and
projects: music and audiovisual performances, presentations, software
demos, and installations.

Hi PD list,
Yet another invitation to a weekend of PD hacking at www.realityjockey.com
Günter
= RJ Sprint, August 2008, Barcelona =
RJ sprint2
The second sprint takes place in Barcelona, Spain on August 8,9,10. Again,
this date comes with very little notice time but we hope you can make it.
We are providing traveling costs and accommodation for 10 People. Send us
an email to michael at realityjockey.com if you are up for it. For those
of you who are totally new here, please read the posting of our last
sprint [1].
We will make it as convenient as possible to join us online for everyone
who is on the other side of the planet.
The focus of this sprint is still on content creation using PD. We had a lot
of progress in our first sprint and some really exiting moments listening to
the results. Roman and Guenter are currently preparing a bundle of PD
objects,
documentation and best practice during the days left to the Barcelona
sprint.
With the progress we have in the RJ player we are expecting some exiting new
concepts and content in Barcelona. Content is king.
It is still early days in the RJ world and we are discovering new ways of
creating and consuming music with every bit of technical progress in the
project. We would love to tell you about this all and encourage your
creativity doing RJ tracks. Right now we can offer to you not more and not
less than being among the first RJs. Your RJ tracks will be the first tracks
download able on the RJ player. If we manage to turn RJ into a success
story, your name and your tracks will be part of this success.
The topics of the sprint are very much depending on the participants but in
general we will tackle the following problems:
* RJ composition framework, what is the best way doing the job?
* Create new RJ tracks, go for it, test it, do it!
* Sensory input, what do we need and how to improve accuracy.
Again, your feedback will have direct impact on the development of the RJ
format, player and composition tools. Sprint Camp or Boot Camp?
We will work from Pauls terrace which is in cuitat vella, in the middle of
the old town of Barcelona. Marquees will protect from too much sun. Since
Pauls terrace is astonishing big we will also provide tents to make this
sprint more like a Sprint Camp. Barbeques and plenty of drinks will provide
the adequate environment.
RJ tracks are mainly consumed with headphones. Think of it as the next
generation of walkman or mp3 player. The consumer experience of RJ is
similar
to the effects of drugs. Drugs affect our sensory perception, so does RJ. RJ
is a mind twisting hearing sensation.
Date: 8,9,10 August 2008;
Location: cuitat vella, Barcelona, Spain
Hotel: Tents
If you want to join us, please contact michael at realityjockey.com
Thanks,
Michael Breidenbruecker, Günter Geiger, Paul Brossier, Amaury Hazan.

You've got Pluggability. Pure Data in the Summer.
29-31 August, 2008
xxxxx/pickledfeet, Berlin
Cost: 60 EUR (with HID sensor board), 50 EUR (without)
Pure Data (Pd) presents the ultimate, free software environment for
sheer audio, video and hardware pluggability, patching and piping. Pd
provides the basis for all manner of audiovisual performance and
trans-media installation, as well as satisfying the artistic quest for
heady experimentation and improvisation. Yet few artists take the time
to master a solid foundation in this graphical programming
environment.
The three day You've got pluggability workshop aims to provide a firm
grounding and clear overview of the varied possibilities and paths
offered by Pure Data. The first day will introduce Pd and quickly move
on to how to create patches which create sounds and noises. The second
day will look further at sound, particularly how to work with sampled
audio, and will introduce the GEM library for working with live and
recorded video. The third day will start with a look at the HID (Human
Interface Device) system for getting sensor input into Pd, and venture
into to using this input to control the audio and video patches which
the participants have already created. No previous experience is
necessary to take this workshop.
This PD workshop will be roughly based on the Pure Data FLOSS Manual,
written by Derek Holzer, Luka Princic, Adam Hyde and contributors from
the PD community: http://flossmanuals.net/puredata
Participants should bring their own laptop running GNU/Linux, Mac OS X or
Windows, and with Pure Data Extended installed from:
http://puredata.info/downloads
They are also encouraged to bring their own ideas, sensors, USB game
controllers, MIDI devices, microphones and video cameras. There will
be an opportunity to buy the inexpensive xxxxx-HID sensor input board
produced at Pickled Feet: http://1010.co.uk/avrhid.html
Limited places! Please register before 24 August at: m(a)1010.co.uk
---About the Teachers
Derek Holzer [USA 1972] began working with Pure Data in 2001. Since
then, he has taught and performed with the program across Europe,
North America, Brazil and New Zealand. His work focuses on field
recording, networked collaboration strategies, experiments in
improvisational sound and the use of free software such as Pd. He is
currently writing a beginner's manual for Pure
Data. http://www.umatic.nl/info_derek.html
Martin Howse operates within the fields of discourse, speculative
hardware (environmental data in open physical systems), code (an
examination of layers of abstraction), free software and the
situational (performances and interventions). http://1010.co.uk
Location:
xxxxx, pickledfeet, Linienstrasse 54, Berlin 10119

---Oblique Strategy # 125:
"Only a part, not the whole"
Hi,
the Academy of Media Arts Cologne (famous for this year's Linux Audio
Conference) invites to its annual exhibition of student's works 16th
to 19th July. There will be several Pd works again, some of them in
the Klanglabor/Soundlab of the Academy, where Matthias Neuenhofer and
myself will show pieces for the "16:9" speaker wall of Rumori/Teige. I
cannot say much about Matthias' work, except that it's hauntingly
beautiful!
My piece is called "schusslig 1.7 beta" and consists of an unfinished
abstract 2D bullet hell shoot'em'up game (Psyvariar meets Pong)
written in Lua (the engine is ~500 lines of pure Lua, to be published
later), graphics projected with Gem and sonified with Pd (with some
game sounds courtesy of Obiwannabe) for you to survive.
More info on the open days:

"[W]e have invented the technology to eliminate scarcity, but we are
deliberately throwing it away to benefit those who profit from
scarcity." -John Gilmore
= RJ Sprint, July 2008 =
www.realityjockey.com
= Kickstart interactive music =
RJ is an interactive music format for the iphone and other mobile
devices. The goal of the project is to turn interactive music into a
consumer format.
? RJ tracks are mainly consumed with headphones. Think of it as the
next generation of walkman or mp3 player. The consumer experience of
RJ is similar to the effects of drugs. Drugs affect our sensory
perception, so does RJ. RJ is a mind twisting hearing sensation.?
= Open doors =
RJ is built on a number of open source components and most parts of
the project will be open sourced in return. RJ tracks are composed
using pure data (PD). The RJ player has direct access to the online
repository of RJ tracks. Of course we want as much people as possible
to participate in this and create RJ tracks.
= RJ sprint =
The first RJ sprint is focused on people who want to produce RJ tracks
using Pure Data. We will provide RJ-Know-How and sufficient tools. You
should be a fluid PD user with a music background. For this first
sprint we are looking for 5 to 10 people. Your feedback will have
direct impact on the development of the RJ format, player and
composition tools.
Right now we can offer to you not more and not less than being among
the first RJs. Your RJ tracks will be the first tracks downloadable on
the RJ player. If we manage to turn RJ into a success story, your name
and your tracks will be part of this success.
= Welcome =
The event is the first of a number of sprints hosted by Michael
Breidenbruecker, Guenter Geiger, Paul Brossier and Amaury Hazan. It
takes place in Bizau, Austria on a hopefully sunny weekend in the
scenic landscape of the austrian alps.
Of course we will cover the costs of your traveling from and to Bizau,
accommodation and food during the event.
We would be very delighted to welcome you and a number of fellow RJs
in Bizau. Please let or Guenter or Michael know as soon as possible if
you are interested and we will contact you concerning details.
Date: 11, 12, 13 July 2008;
Location: Bizau, Austria
Hotel: Hotel Taube
If you want to join us, please contact
geiger at realityjockey.com or michael at realityjockey.com

This message was sent using IMP, the Internet Messaging Program.
So it turns out that the drivers for the Sony SIXAXIS controller are
now included in the Linux kernel. So if you have kernel version
2.6.24, then you can just plug it in, and it'll be fully recognized.
And even better, [hid] gets all of the data from it, except for the
accelerometer. So I wrote [sixaxis], which is meant to be used in
conjunction with [hid], to get the accelerometer data.
This controller is unusual because all of its buttons are also
pressure sensitive. That means for each button, you also get an
analog report between 0 255. You can get this first version in SVN
or here, built for i386:

Here are some key changes:
- updated to use Firmata 2.0 protocol
- Firmata is now an Arduino library
- a number of included firmwares to support things like Servos
- switched serial speed to 115200
