Berlin Workshop: Complex dynamical sonic systems
by Derek Holzer 13 May '13

13 May '13

"Complex dynamical sonic systems based on nonlinear feedback networks" Dario Sanfilippo COST: 25Â€ WHEN: 20th of May TIME: 11:30-13:00 / lunch / 14:00-17:00 WHERE: N.K. | Elsenstr. 52/2.Hinterhaus Etage 2, Berlin, Germany 12059 | www.nkprojekt.de FULL INFO: http://www.nkprojekt.de/complex-dynamical-sonic-systems-based-on-nonli near-feedback-networks/ In this workshop I will discuss complex dynamical feedback systems for human-machine interaction performance, autonomous sound installations and non-conventional sound synthesis. The workshop will be divided into two parts: a theoretical one, and a more practical one. In the first part, I will talk about the properties of feedback systems from a systemic and cybernetic perspective within the framework of emergent and complex phenomena, along with theoretical concepts related to such an approach for creative practices. In the second part, I will present some of my works and techniques, and the implementation of such systems through the Pure Data programming environment, analog devices or other softwares, although such systems can be machine-independent and the technical description provided makes it possible to implement these techniques in other environments. -- derek holzer noise.art.technology http://macumbista.net

Dear all, at 10:00am (in about 10 minutes), the Linux Audio Conference 2013 is about to start. There is a live stream available, so you can follow the event, even if you have not made it physically to Graz http://lac.linuxaudio.org/2013/stream Remote participants are invited to join #lac2013 on irc.freenode.net[1], to be able to take part in the discussions, ask questions, and get technical assistance in case of stream problems. See you on the conference - here and everywhere fgmdasr IOhannes [1] http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=lac2013

library template v1.0.14 released!
by Hans-Christoph Steiner 07 May '13

07 May '13

I just posted v1.0.14 of the Library Template that fixes some build issues on recent Mac OS X and Android: https://puredata.info/downloads/template If you are starting a library or want to port your existing library to multiple platforms, then the Library Template will make things much easier for you. Libraries in this format are very easy to install and they integrate tightly with Pd, providing things like namespace support, meta data for the search function, a listing in the Help Browser, etc. It handles building on all supported platforms (currently GNU/Linux, GNU/Hurd, GNU/kFreeBSD, Mac OS X/Universal, Windows/MinGW, Windows/Cygwin, Android, Apple iOS). Using this template makes it trivially easy to package your library for Debian, Ubuntu, Fedora, Gentoo, etc. Find out all about it here: https://puredata.info/docs/developer/LibraryTemplate .hc

Ringtone - Amplitude Modulation Sequencer in Pd
by Alexandre Torres Porres 05 May '13

05 May '13

Hi there, I'm releasing a simple vanilla patch. I stole the idea from http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LT5-yXaLpwA Here's the patch, which does more stuff... https://sites.google.com/site/porres/ringtone.zip I got more ideas that I wanna implement later, as well as some enhancements. But this is enough fun for you and all your family. I'd love to see you try it on your raspberry Pis. I don't have my around just now, but I think it's a light patch that will run smoothly on it. Cheers

[RADICAL] use of biotechnology to integrate networked bodies and interactive dance
by Marco Donnarumma 03 May '13

Dear Pd'rs, the Xth Sense (made in Pd/Linux) is at the core of this large-scale biophysical interactive dance project we premiere today in New York. Some pics of the backstage at the bottom website link. Feel free to distribute through your networks! best wishes, \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ Rensselaer Arts PHD Candidate, Heidi Boisvert, premieres performance at EMPAC that cultivates an expressive virtual world populated by corporeal sounds and generative imagery from dancers' bodies. TROY, NY - April 8th, 2013 - The Arts Department at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute announces the premiere of a mechanomyogram (MMG) multi-media production, "[radical] signs of life," on May 3rd at 4:00 pm and May 4th at 7:30 pm in Studio 2 at the Experimental Media and Performing Arts Center (EMPAC). Through responsive dance, "[radical] signs of life" externalizes the mind’s non-hierarchical distribution of thought. Music is generated from the dancers‘ muscles and blood flow via biophysical sensors that capture sound waves from the performers’ bodies. This data triggers complex neural patterns to be projected onto multiple screens as 3D imagery. As the audience interacts with the images produced, they enter into a dialogue with the dancers. The performance makes use of biophysical technology to integrate networked bodies and interactive dance. It was conceived and directed by new media artist and game designer Heidi Boisvert in collaboration with an international team of artists, including Pauline Jennings (Choreographer), Doug Van Nort (Sound Designer), Allen Hahn (Set & Lighting Designer), Raven Kwok (Visual Designer), Amy Nielson (Costume Designer) and Marco Donnarumma (Sensor Designer & Developer). The project features the Xth Sense (XS), a biophysical sensor that detects and captures mechanical sound waves produced at the onset of musculature contraction. For "[radical] signs of life," a wireless network and stand alone armband was custom developed for the XS by engineer MJ Caselden, and industrial designer, Krystal Pernaud. The choreography for the hour-long performance will be composed in real-time by five dancers from a shared movement database in accordance with pre-determined rules. Outfitted with two wireless sensors each, the dancers--Jennifer Mellor, Ellen Smith Ahern, Hanna Satterlee, Avi Waring and Willow Wonder--will create patterns that dissolve from autonomous polyrhythms to intersecting lines as they slip through generative video and light. "[radical] signs of life" was produced, in part, at Harvestworks with funds from the Rockefeller Foundation’s New York City Cultural Innovation Fund and the National Endowment for the Arts. The work was made possible through generous support from the Rensselaer Arts Department along with iEAR Studios, and EMPAC staff. Rehearsal space was granted by an Artistic Residency at the Contemporary Dance and Fitness Center in Montpelier, Vermont. Limited Seating. Reservations recommended. To make reservations, please contact the EMPAC Box Office at 518.276.3921. Media Contact: Heidi Boisvert, heidijboisvert(a)gmail.com, +.1.917.536.2792 Full press package available upon request.
