Announcement Kickstart RJ
by geiger＠xdv.org 02 Jul '08

02 Jul '08

= 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 More info at www.realityjockey.com Thanks, Michael Breidenbruecker, Günter Geiger, Paul Brossier, Amaury Hazan. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This message was sent using IMP, the Internet Messaging Program.

support for Sony SIXAXIS on GNU/Linux
by Hans-Christoph Steiner 01 Jul '08

01 Jul '08

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: http://at.or.at/hans/pd/objects.html .hc ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ---- Mistrust authority - promote decentralization. - the hacker ethic
