PuREST JSON Version 0.5 released
by Thomas Mayer 28 Nov '11

28 Nov '11

Hello, I am happy to announce Version 0.5 of PuREST JSON, a library for working with JSON data and communication with RESTful HTTP webservices, that use JSON data. What is JSON? JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) is a lightweight data-interchange format. It is easy for humans to read and write. It is easy for machines to parse and generate. It is based on a subset of the JavaScript Programming Language, Standard ECMA-262 3rd Edition - December 1999. JSON is a text format that is completely language independent but uses conventions that are familiar to programmers of the C-family of languages, including C, C++, C#, Java, JavaScript, Perl, Python, and many others. These properties make JSON an ideal data-interchange language. Why should I care about JSON and PuREST JSON? A lot of services on the web are available through JSON webservices, e.g. you can use live data from Twitter via a JSON API and use it for generative art - an example using Bitcoin prices is included. A lot of NoSQL databases use JSON data and a RESTful interface for storing and retrieving data, e.g. MongoDB and CouchDB. Examples, helpfiles and manual are included in the source and Debian package. Download: Sourcecode from github: https://github.com/residuum/PuRestJson Debian package for i386: https://github.com/downloads/residuum/PuRestJson/purest-json_0.5_i386.deb See the changelog: https://github.com/residuum/PuRestJson/blob/master/Changelog.txt Have fun and best regards, Thomas -- "Anything can be a tool - poverty, war.

by Husk 00 28 Nov '11

28 Nov '11

Hi list, this is a piece of code I'm using a lot during my last workshop, motion tracking and Vjing. It is a puredata application developed to make easy OSC interconnection between applications. It uses a xml file descriptor to import OSC information on that software don't let you change the OSC path (like Moful8 or Resolume) Here a video example by Lisa Miller using robOSC to connect synapse (kinect) to resolume 3: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5fMX2cTjUrM Here more information and code: https://code.autistici.org/trac/planetQ/wiki/robOSC Hope can be useful to someone there! cheers husk -- "when Art become pratical, we call it technology, when Technology become useless we call it Art" Song hojun www.estereotips.net

Reminder: BodyControlled #01 - other spaces - 26th November
by João Pais 26 Nov '11

26 Nov '11

Hello everyone, just to remind about the opening of BodyControlled tomorrow, curated by me and Daniel Franke, organized by LEAP. If you can't come to us, you can listen/see us through the live feed. All informations below. See you tomorrow, João Pais BodyControlled #01 other spaces BodyControlled is a new exhibition and performance series at the Lab for Electronic Arts and Performance - LEAP -, presenting artists who are dedicated to performance art and have explored in their work the medium of sound in electronic as well as other expressive art forms. The first event of the BodyControlled series focuses on the theme of other spaces. The works on display will both intertwine with LEAP’s existing architecture and generate other virtual spaces. These areas are either completely synthetically generated, reflecting directly the current environment to a new sonic framework or condense an existing space into specific digital imagery. The opening will be concluded with a 12-hour performance by Robert Henke going until Sunday morning. Visitors are welcome anytime, and pillows will be available. All performances at the opening night of BodyControlled will be available from 20h CET via *livestream *on http://bit.ly/uXRgyq.

[pd-annunce] soñando satelites, interactive installation using puredata
by Husk 00 19 Nov '11

19 Nov '11

Hi list, I just want to present to you my last work Soñando satelites [Dreaming Satellites]. It uses puredata (thanks to Alberto Zin among others), Din - din is noise, and gpredict with a patch from David Pello. cheers husk Soñando Satelites is a real time satellite sound installation that invites to dream and proposes to look over our head as a land to explore and hack. It is a ritual of re-appropriation, a celebration of the fact we are involved in the same data-space that could control bodies or change relations between entities. Soñando Satelites is a generative sound track connected to a real time multi tracking satellite system called Gpredict, especially patched for the installation. The installation aims to create an immersive audio/visual space for the audience: the public enters a dark room where a projection of a satellite real time tracking system is displayed. Audio is provided through wireless headphones that allow people to move freely within the immersive space. Only free software has been used to develop that work and all the making process is documented for the public.

[Workshop] Xth Sense Biophysical Generation and control of music CultureLab Newcastle
by Marco Donnarumma 18 Nov '11

18 Nov '11

(sorry for x-post) Last call for participation. //// ONLY two places left \\\\\ ~ Xth Sense – biophysical generation and control of music Hands-on training in augmentation of the body for musical performance. Creating your own low cost biosensing wearable device for muscle sounds. See an Xth Sense performance at http://vimeo.com/20889787 Xth Sense: http://res.marcodonnarumma.com/projects/xth-sense/ http://marcodonnarumma.com/works/music-for-flesh-ii/ ~ When & Where Space 4/5, Culture Lab, Grand Assembly Rooms, King's Walk, Newcastle, NE1 7RU Monday, 21st November 2011 at 09:00 Friday, 25th November 2011 at 22:00 SIGN UP HERE: http://tinyurl.com/xthNCL Workshop outline: http://marcodonnarumma.com/teaching/xth-sense-biophysical-music/ ~ What The workshop offers an hands-on experience and both theoretical and practical training in gestural control of music and bodily musical performance, deploying the brand-new biosensing technology Xth Sense. Developed by the workshop teacher Marco Donnarumma within a research project at The University of Edinburgh, Xth Sense is a framework for the application of muscle sounds to the biophysical generation and control of music. It consists of a low cost, DIY biosensing wearable device and an Open Source based software for capture, analysis and audio processing of biological sounds of the body (Pure Data-based). Muscle sounds are captured in real time and used both as sonic source material and control values for sound effects, enabling the performer to control music simply with his body and kinetic energy. Forget your mice, MIDI controllers, you will not even need to look at your laptop any more. The Xth Sense biosensor was designed to be easily implemented by anyone, no previous experience in electronics is required. The applications of the Xth Sense technology are manifold: from complex gestural control of samples and audio synthesis, through biophysical generation of music and sounds, to kinetic control of real time digital processing of traditional musical instruments, and more. ~ How Firstly, participants will be introduced to the Xth Sense Technology by its author and led through the assembling of their own biosensing wearable hardware using the materials provided. Next, they will become proficient with the Xth Sense software framework: all the features of the framework will be unleashed through practical exercises. Theoretical background on the state of art of gestural control of music and new musical instruments will be developed by means of an audiovisual review and participatory critical analysis of relevant projects selected by the instructor. Eventually, participants will combine hardware and software to implement a solo or group performance to be presented during the closing event. At the end of the workshop, participants will be free to keep the Xth Sense biosensors they built and the related software for their own use. ~ Perspective participants The workshop is open to anyone passionate about sound and music. No previous experience in electronics or programming is required, however participants should be familiar with digital music creation. Musical background and education does not matter as long as you are ready to challenge your usual perspective on musical performance. Composers, producers, sound designers, musicians, field recordists are all welcome to join our team for an innovative and highly creative experience. This is a last call for only two more candidates. Feel free to forward to your networks. thanks, best wishes, -- Marco Donnarumma Independent New Media and Sonic Arts Practitioner, Performer, Teacher ACE, Sound Design MSc by Research (ongoing) The University of Edinburgh, UK ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Portfolio: http://marcodonnarumma.com Research: http://res.marcodonnarumma.com | http://www.thesaddj.com | http://www.flxer.net Director: http://www.liveperformersmeeting.net
