Xth Sense Biophysical Music NYC workshop, make your own biowearable - Oct. 4-5
by Marco Donnarumma 26 Sep '14

26 Sep '14

(apologies for any x-post) HYPHEN HUB WORKSHOPS Xth Sense™ - Biophysical Music with Marco Donnarumma Make your own low-cost biowearable for interactive music and video OCTOBER 4TH - 5TH 2014, NEW YORK This weekend course offers hands-on experience and theoretical training in the performance of biophysical music and visuals with the wearable instrument Xth Sense™ (XS). Workshop participants will build from scratch their own XS biosensors, then learn how to analyze and map the sound and data from their muscle, blood flow and body movements to generate music, visuals, and do live processing of sound. Attention will also be paid to aesthetic considerations when using the XS system in artistic contexts. At the end of the workshop, participants will take home the XS bioacoustic sensors they built, and the related software for their own continued creative use. Some topics covered in the workshop include: - Theoretical background on the state of art of gestural control of music - Introduction to the Xth Sense (XS) framework (technical overview, capabilities) - Building the biosensor - An introduction to the open source artistic programming language PureData, tips and tricks for using PureData in live settings - Explorations of bioacoustic sound design capabilities - Building audio modules and signal processing chains - Aesthetics of bioacoustic sensor-based performance - Mapping muscle energy to control values and real-time processing - Designing an aesthetic vocabulary for body-sensor performance ABOUT THE XTH SENSE The Xth Sense™ (2010-14) is a free and open biophysical technology. With it you can produce music with the sound of your body. The XS captures sounds from heart, blood and muscles and uses them to integrate the human body with a digital interactive system for sound and video production. In 2012, it was named the “world’s most innovative new musical instrument” and awarded the first prize in the Margaret Guthman New Musical Instrument Competition by the Georgia Tech Center for Music Technology (US). Today, the Xth Sense is used by a steadily growing community of creatives, ranging from performing artists and musicians, to researchers in physiotherapy and prosthetics, and universities and students in diverse fields. @xthsense http://res.marcodonnarumma.com/projects/xth-sense/ DETAILS REGISTER AT: http://www.eventbrite.com/e/xth-sensetm-biophysical-music-workshop-with-mar… DATE: 4-5 OCTOBER, 2014 TIME: 11AM-5PM COST: Regular: $280, Members & Students (with ID): $250 (+ $40 Materials Cost) Registrants are reminded to bring the $40 for the materials cost in cash to the workshop.

MobMuPlat for Android
by Daniel Iglesia 18 Sep '14

18 Sep '14

Hi everyone, I'm happy to announce the initial public release of MobMuPlat for Android! Now your Pd patch+interface creations work the same on iOS and Android: MIDI, sensors, GPS, 2D graphics, networking, etc, are all there, plus the Android-only feature of connecting Gamepads/Joysticks. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.iglesiaintermedia.mobmupl… and www.mobmuplat.com I still consider it somewhat in beta: given the chaotic breadth of Android hardware out there, please contact me with any glaring problems or questions. Improvements are still being made... Additionally, both iOS and Android versions (and the editor applications) are open-source on github (better building directions coming soon). Please contact me with any questions, or to show off what you've made with it... Best, Dan === www.danieliglesia.com

01 Sep '14

Sorry for cross-posting, I tried to reply to my previous post but got a notification that the announce list is not for discussions (makes sense), so I'm sending a new email. I just made a few corrections to the servo motors project of a tutorial on Arduino and Pd I wrote last month (attached). Cheers
