NIME 2018 Call for submissions
Please pardon the cross-posting,
NIME (New Interfaces for Musical Expression) is the premier conference
in human-machine interfaces and interactions for musical performance.
NIME is a gathering of researchers, designers, musicians, who come
together to share knowledge, perform music, and build community through
research presentations, concerts, installations, and workshops.
On behalf of the 2018 NIME Committee I am pleased to announce that the
NIME 2018 "Mirrored Resonances" Conference call for submissions is now
officially open! Co-organized between Virginia Tech and the University
of Virginia, the conference will take place June 3-6, 2018 in
Blacksburg, Virginia. We welcome submissions of papers, posters, panels,
musical performances, installations, demos, and workshops, particularly
those that may respond to the overarching conference theme of “Mirrored
Resonances” and its thematic areas in any of the many ways they might be
interpreted. Likewise, we encourage potential participants to consider
exploring the unique Virginia Tech facilities, including the Institute
for Creativity, Arts, and Technology’s Cube with a massive high density
loudspeaker array. The deadline for the *double-blind peer reviewed
submissions*, including papers, panels, demo papers, music, and
installations is January 20th, 2018. Submissions created by January 20th
will continue to be editable until January 27th when the submission
process will close. Demos without paper and workshops will be *curated
*and have an extended submission deadline until March 1st, 2018. In
addition to the NIME and academic communities, we also invite industry,
as well as non-academic creatives to consider participating in the
aforesaid categories. For a complete list of important dates visit the

Just a few days later I'm releasing an update, I deleted one object and
added other 2, but also did change some important things, details in
https://github.com/porres/pd-else/releases/tag/v1.0-beta3
I ended up not uploading beta 2 to deken and now have already uploaded beta
3 so it's just a matter of time until all of them show up - I've deleted
beta 1 so just "else-v1.0beta3" shows up in deken.
cheers

Hi, I've been working this year on a new library called "ELSE", this first
beta release, and it is up in deken for Windows, Mac and Windows. Here's my
repository github.com/porres/pd-else
It has 134 objects as of now, and I plan to keep adding more until the
stable release. It is a multi purpose / swiss army knife library, with
basic building blocks for patching, such as oscillators, filters, etc... it
is strongly oriented towards sample accuracy, so you can trigger objects
with impulses and gates. SuperCollider is also like that, so I stole a
bunch stuff and ideas from their objects.
My idea is to heavily rely on it and in cyclone to patch the examples in my
didactic material - that I've been developing for 9 years.
I'm presenting a paper tomorrow about it here in São Paulo, Brazil, at SBCM
( http://compmus.ime.usp.br/sbcm/2017/ ). Here's the paper:

Thanks
this is just to announce, that the latest and greatest Pd is now also
available pre-packaged for Debian 9 ("stretch").
Debian/stretch has been released in June 2017, *before* Pd-0.48 was
released. Debian policy does not allow updating packages after a Debian
release, which often means that users end up with out-of-date packages
(after all, Debian does a release every 2 years or so; which means that
available packages can be several years old - esp. if people insist on
not upgrading to the latest Debian/stable).
in comes Debian/backports, which allows users to install up-to-date
packages on their stable Debian systems, with full Debian support.
For instructions on how to enable this, see:
http://backports.debian.org/
I intend to provide backports for all Pd related packages (Pd-vanilla
and all those externals available).
I do not intend to provide backports for Debian/jessie (RaspberryPi
users are advised to upgrade to Debian/stretch; really anybody is
advised to do that)

sidenote: i generally recommend to use Debian/stable on servers, and use
Debian/testing (constantly updating) for anything multimedia related (as
you usually don't want to use multimedia applications that are several
years old). with Debian/backports you can have the best of two worlds -
a rock solid OS with some select up-to-date applications.
