Howdy, I have big updates to the ELSE library and my Live Electronics
Tutorial!
Raspberry Pi binaries for ELSE are still missing, but it'll be up soon.
Find available releases on github while they don't show up in deken.:
https://github.com/porres/pd-else/releases/tag/v1.0-beta18
<https://l.facebook.com/l.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2Fporres%2Fpd-else%…>
There are 30 new objects in ELSE. This is the first release over 300
objects and there's already 324 of them! I'm shocked on how much it's
growing... I realize now how this library is unique in the number of
objects towards DSP and audio processing. There are 219 tilde objects,
that's more objects than Pd itself has, or all of cyclone... So, what's the
most exciting new stuff?
- There's a bunch of reverb objects here - [mono.rev~], [stereo.rev~],
[echo.rev~], [giga.rev~], [free.rev~] (check also [fdn.rev~] which wasn't
really ready).
- There are a few dynamic processors as well: [compress~], [duck~] and
[expand~].
- A couple of FX like [chorus~] and [phaser~].
- A [spectrograph~] object.
- Some objects that deal with lists ([regroup], [pick], [sort],
[scramble], [merge], [unmerge] & [rand.seq]).
- A [trigger2] object that behaves like [trigegr] in Purr Data and Max,
that people from time to time request to be in Pd as well (if Pd's trigger
includes such functionalities, I'll delete this object).
Check complete changelog here:
https://github.com/porres/pd-else/releases/tag/v1.0-beta18
<https://l.facebook.com/l.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2Fporres%2Fpd-else%…>
.
As usual, I have breaking changes while we're at the beta stage.
As for my Live Electronics tutorial, which is based on this library, most
of the changes reflect the new objects from the ELSE library. So then, most
importantly, the reverb section just got a major upgrade. I'm also now
including an appendix with s quick start on Data Structures! Check it out
at

ICAD 2019 — Call for Submissions to the ICAD 2019 Algorave.
25th International Conference on Auditory Display
Northumbria University, Newcastle-upon-Tyne, UK
23–27 June, 2019
https://icad2019.icad.orghttps://twitter.com/ICAD2019
Theme/Special Focus of ICAD 2019 is "Digital Living: Sonification for Everyday Life".
Digital technology and artificial intelligence are becoming embedded in the objects all around us, from consumer products to the built environment. Everyday life happens where People, Technology, and Place intersect. Our activities and movements are increasingly sensed, digitised and tracked. Of course, the data generated by modern life is a hugely important resource not just for companies who use it for commercial purposes, but it can also be harnessed for the benefit of the individuals it concerns. Sonification research that has hit the news headlines in recent times has often been related to big science done at large publicly funded labs with little impact on the day-to-day lives of people. At ICAD 2019 we want to explore how auditory display technologies and techniques may be used to enhance our everyday lives. From giving people access to what’s going on inside their own bodies, to the human concerns of living in a modern networked and technological city, the range of opportunities for auditory display is wide.
ALGORAVE
For the first time at an ICAD meeting the conference programme includes an Algorave event. "Algoraves focus on humans making and dancing to music. Algorave musicians don’t pretend their software is being creative, they take responsibility for the music they make, shaping it using whatever means they have. More importantly the focus is not on what the musician is doing, but on the music, and people dancing to it. Algoraves embrace the alien sounds of raves from the past, and introduce alien, futuristic rhythms and beats made through strange, algorithm-aided processes. It’s up to the good people on the dancefloor to help the musicians make sense of this and do the real creative work in making a great party.” (https://algorave.com/about).
The ICAD 2019 committee seeks submissions to this event which will provide an exciting complement to the other conference categories. For details on proposal format, submission instructions, and additional conference information please visit https://icad2019.icad.org/call-for-participation.

Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/AudioMostly/
Twitter: https://twitter.com/AudioMostly @AudioMostly
_______________________________________________________________________
AUDIO MOSTLY 2019
Audio Mostly is an audio focused interdisciplinary conference on design, interacting with sound and technology, which embraces applied theory and practice-based research.
It is an annual conference which brings together thinkers and doers from academia and industry who share an interest in sonic interaction and the use of audio for interface design. This remit covers product design, auditory displays, computer games and virtual environments, new digital musical instruments, educational applications and workplace tools, as well as the topics listed below. It further includes fields such as the psychology of sound and music, cultural studies, systems engineering, and everything in between in which sonic Human-Computer Interaction plays a role.
Audio Mostly 2019 will be an inclusive event for all, bringing together a whole range of people and communities. It will be a lively and sociable mix of oral and poster paper presentations, demos, and workshops. We welcome submissions from industry, academia and interested parties in each of these categories.
As in previous years, the Audio Mostly 2019 proceedings will be published by the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM) (to be confirmed) and made available through their digital library. Regular papers, posters and demos/installations will be double-blind peer reviewed. It is envisaged that there will be a special issue of a journal relating to the conference, as with previous years.
CONFERENCE THEME - A Journey in Sound
The special theme for the conference this year is A Journey in Sound and we would particularly welcome papers relating to this theme for at the conference this year. We often have different experiences of sound and music though out our lives, there are sounds that remind us of different places and people. We also have different playlists and songs that take us back and remind us of certain times and events. Throughout our lives we are interacting with sounds and music, we are on a journey in sound. This year the theme of the conference is open to interpretation, but people might think about the following, in relation to the theme:
* Sonic aspects of digital stories, documentaries and archives
* The soundtrack to our lives. Archiving and sharing sound
* The emotional potential of a sound, how might this be used to support interaction
* The different uses of music across different settings
* The re-use of recollections and memories by composers & sound designers
* The development of musical tools that can let us express our experiences over time
* Socio-technical uses of AI create highly personalised soundtracks that respond to one's context
* Adaptive music use in journeys, time and the creative use of data
Audio Mostly 2019 encourages the submission of regular papers (oral/poster presentation) addressing such questions and others related to the conference theme and the topics presented below.
LIST OF TOPICS
The Audio Mostly conference series is interested in sound Interaction Design & Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) in general. The conference provides a space to reflect on the role of sound/music in our lives and how to understand, develop and design systems which relate to sound and music - we are particularly interested in this from a broad HCI perspective. We encourage original regular papers (oral/poster presentation) addressing the conference theme or other topics from the list provided below.

*MUME 2019 Concert - 2nd CALL FOR WORKS*
===================
The 7th International Workshop on Musical Metacreation
http://musicalmetacreation.org
June 17-18, 2019, Charlotte, North Carolina
=== Important Dates ===
submission deadline: March 24, 2019
notification date: April 28, 2019
concert dates: June 17 evening, 2019
======================
*Overview*
Creators of musically metacreative systems are invited to submit works for
a concert of musical metacreation, as part of the 10th International
Conference on Computational Creativity, ICCC 2019, at the University of
North Carolina Charlotte. Submitted works can be of any musical style, but
must involve a performative element and must involve the use of
computational creativity techniques in the creation of the work. Examples
from previous MuMe concerts include, but are not limited to: reproduction
of musical style using machine learning; the evolution of musical
structures using interactive genetic algorithms; rule-based systems;
systems based on emergence or self-organization; systems that perform music
data mining to create remixes, and so on.
*Types of Work*
Any work related to MuMe that can be presented in a performance context
will be considered. This includes:
- Improvising agents that perform alongside live musicians.
- Automated composition systems that generate music in real-time or
pre-compose music for performers, as well as automated DJ systems.
- Systems that use AI methods for other creative objectives, such as
harmonizing, intelligent looping, or finding suitable matches for a target
phrase.
- Systems that generate lyrics.
- Music that uses evolution, emergence or ecosystemic concepts.
*Submission Process*
Please submit a two page A4-portrait PDF describing your work before the
submission deadline. Email your submission to chairs(a)musicalmetacreation.org.
Submissions should *not* be *anonymized.* Your submission should:
- Describe the work.
- Explain how the work relates to the MuMe theme.
- Give a relatively detailed technical description of the system*.
- Give detailed performance requirements. As necessary, this may include
a stage plan, equipment needs, technical support needs, and performing
musicians (you can use additional PDF pages for any supporting items).
- Provide a link to any additional documentary material such as audio or
video recordings, or online software (highly recommended).
- Give credits and biography (name, affiliation, short biography up to
150 words).
* It is common to receive submissions that are highly ambiguous about what
the proposed system actually does. Works will be rejected if this is the
case. The description does not need to be highly technically detailed but
it should remove any fundamental ambiguity.
*Selection Process*
All submissions will be reviewed by three independent members of the
selection committee. Once these reviews have been completed the reviewers
and the chairs will discuss these works and reviews. The chairs will
provide a meta-review, the three original reviews, and a final decision.
Reviewers will be anonymous to the authors, but not to each other. The
final decision lies with the chairs, in consultation with the committee.
*Upon Acceptance*
Artists are required to be in attendance and set up their own equipment. At
least one artist must register for the MuMe workshop.
A schedule for performances, rehearsals and soundchecks will be made
available in the week before the concert.

hi all.
15 years ago, some folks in graz (including yours truely) founded a
non-profit organisation "Pd~graz", mainly to organize the 1st
Pd~convention in 2004 (those were the days!)
at the end of last year the austrian police wrote me a letter, asking
whether our association is still alive. and indeed we found that we (as
a club) hadn't had any real activity in the last 9 years or so, and
therefore we decided to terminate the association for good. (no need to
feel sorry. Pd~graz's raison d'être was to make Pd rule the world. this
mission is practically accomplished).
in any case, we are celebrating with a final concert.
the concert will be in two weeks(20.3; right that's pretty soon), at the
postgarage[1]. those of you who have been at the very 1st Pd~convention
will remember it fondly.
anybody who happens to be in the vicinity should of course come and
party with us.
if you are prepared to show your screen, there might even be an open mic
session.

Greetings fellow Pd enthusiasts,
As some of you may be already aware, ast year the Purr-Data (a.k.a.
Pd-L2Ork v2) was adapted to support native 64-bit operations. We are
pleased to report that Purr-Data was once again selected this year as one
of the GSoC projects. This means more opportunities to engage and help
further the platform. Ideas for this year are plentiful, ranging from core
infrastructure (C) development to patching and front-end development,
including porting Pd-L2Ork's K12 learning module that has seen its
utilization in dozens of Maker camps over the past 7 years.
If interested, please contact Jonathan and/or me to explore potential
projects and to discuss the next steps in the application process.
Best,
Ico

Howdy, please allow me to share a rather personal and detailed report to
this dear list about this release: The Cyclone Library (a set of Pure Data
objects cloned from Max/MSP) is finally upgraded to version 0.3! The main
goal of Cyclone 0.3 was to update it to Max 7! Max 8 is out now and there
are minor updates that could be included in cyclone, which may be ported in
a possible future 0.4 release. Cyclone 0.3 also provide numerous fixes,
several new objects and a newly written documentation!
In the last release (cyclone 0.3 release candidate 1), we noted how we
finished updating our last object to Max 7! The catch was that we still
needed to update [comment], which won't be updated to Max 6+. Now it's
been updated but not yet fully compliant to Max 5 - nonetheless it's
"acceptable" and further work can be taken care in future 0.3.x releases.
Anyhow, there were also other updates and fixes and the thing is, with what
we have now, I just feel comfortable and happy to state: "*Mission
Completed: Cyclone 0.3 stable release is out!*".
This took 3 years. In fact, this release happens in the exact day of the
3rd anniversary of our repository. I was pretty clueless on how to code
externals when we started and I still struggle a lot - even though I was
able to learn a thing or two in the meantime :) -, this is to say that if
it weren't for my colleagues Derek and Matt, nothing of this would be
possible! I feel I have to praise and thank them (which I can't do enough)
as I don't want to outshine them (since I'm the usual spokesman of the
project). We made a great team! My limitations actually came in handy as I
could just deal with what I could, which was the most tedious and manual
labor that this project needed, like revising every object, looking for
bugs, cleaning things up, dealing with the less complicated stuff while I
learned how to code and etc. Then after a lot of attention, I could deliver
a good briefing so they could help me fix the more hardcore stuff without
all that hassle.
After this long period, it's also noticeable to say we lost steam. I can
only speak for myself and I'm now taking care of my own library (thanks to
all I've learned dealing with cyclone, I must say). I don't know much and
can't promise that cyclone will keep receiving the same attention from now
on, but don't expect it to be abandoned ;) The project is obviously open
for collaboration and any help is welcome. We actually had a very good and
recent contribution from Diego Barrios Romero, who made it possible for
anyone to compile cyclone now as a single library! Apparently he needed
this to load cyclone with libpd more conveniently. Further cyclone releases
may also bring the option of a single compiled binary. Instructions on how
to compile cyclone as a single library and more about the project in genera
can be found here:
https://github.com/porres/pd-cyclone/blob/cyclone0.3/README.md Also check
the changelog for a full list of changes:
https://github.com/porres/pd-cyclone/blob/cyclone0.3/documentation/extra_fi…
Cyclone is now available for the main architectures via Pd (Help => Find
Externals) - it might take a while until it shows up in the system. You can
also get it from here:
https://github.com/porres/pd-cyclone/releases/tag/cyclone0.3
For last, I can't finish this message without thanking the Pd Community in
general (specially Dan and IOhannes for being big players and great
leaders) but mostly Miller Puckette, of course, without whom there's be no
Max or Pd (and therefore no cyclone). We obviously need to also thank the
original author of Cyclone, Krzysztof Czaja, who created this important
library for Pd! Hans Christof Steiner needs to be honored for maintaining
this library and keeping it in Pd Extended for a long time, and later Fred
Jan Kraan was also very important to start fixing and updating this library
after so long in the cyclone 0.2 releases.
Cheers
17th Beta release of ELSE 1.0 - now with a total of 294 objects! This needs
Pd 0.49-0 or above! My Live Electronics Tutorial was also updated!
So, my last update from a few days ago had a bugged [conv~] object (which
performs partitioned convolution). This release fixes it and there are
other things too, see:
https://github.com/porres/pd-else/releases/tag/v1.0-beta17 for more
details. Get binaries also directly from Pd (Help => Find Externals).
Anyway, I can only now finally say my Live Electronics Tutorial solely
depends 100% on the ELSE library. I've also made important reviews on it.
I'm now also reorganizing things in a new and unfinished volume 3! Check it
out:
https://github.com/porres/Live-Electronics-Tutorial/releases/tag/v-1.0beta-7
cheers
16th Beta release of ELSE 1.0 - now with a total of 293 objects! This needs
Pd 0.49-0 or above! Not much new in this release. The highlights are 3 new
objects: [conv~], [rec~] and [sample~]. See
https://github.com/porres/pd-else/releases/tag/v1.0-beta16 for more
details. Get binaries also directly from Pd (Help => Find Externals).
The [conv~] object is a partitioned convolution abstraction, but a compiled
object should come up sooner or later. One way or another, this object
removes the last dependency from my Live Electronics Tutorial, which now
solely depends 100% on the ELSE library, and what makes this release
special! Check it out:
https://github.com/porres/Live-Electronics-Tutorial/releases/tag/v-1.0beta-6

ICAD 2019 — Call for Submission of Papers, Extended Abstracts, Workshops, and Tutorials
25th International Conference on Auditory Display
Northumbria University, Newcastle-upon-Tyne, UK
23–27 June, 2019
https://icad2019.icad.orghttps://twitter.com/ICAD2019
Theme/Special Focus of ICAD 2019 is "Digital Living: Sonification for Everyday Life".
Digital technology and artificial intelligence are becoming embedded in the objects all around us, from consumer products to the built environment. Everyday life happens where People, Technology, and Place intersect. Our activities and movements are increasingly sensed, digitised and tracked. Of course, the data generated by modern life is a hugely important resource not just for companies who use it for commercial purposes, but it can also be harnessed for the benefit of the individuals it concerns. Sonification research that has hit the news headlines in recent times has often been related to big science done at large publicly funded labs with little impact on the day-to-day lives of people. At ICAD 2019 we want to explore how auditory display technologies and techniques may be used to enhance our everyday lives. From giving people access to what’s going on inside their own bodies, to the human concerns of living in a modern networked and technological city, the range of opportunities for auditory display is wide.
PAPERS AND EXTENDED ABSTRACTS
The ICAD 2019 committee is seeking papers and extended abstracts that will contribute to knowledge of how sonification can support everyday life.
For details on topics of interest, proposal format, submission instructions, and additional conference information please visit https://icad2019.icad.org/call-for-participation
HYUNDAI MOTOR COMPANY DESIGN CHALLENGE ON AUDITORY UX DESIGN FOR AUTONOMOUS VEHICLES AND FUTURE MOBILITY
In addition to the general papers call, the organizing committee is pleased to announce a special call for papers, videos and demonstrations of prototypes for the Hyundai Motor Company-sponsored design challenge on "Auditory User eXperience Design for Autonomous Vehicles and Future Mobility". Submissions to this special category could cover:
- Auditory applications for infotainment for autonomous vehicles
- Auditory interactions between connected vehicles
- Auditory situation awareness in autonomous vehicles
- Auditory interactions between autonomous vehicles and pedestrians
- Auditory user interfaces for blind drivers in autonomous vehicles
- Auditory displays for hand-over/take-over request in semi-autonomous vehicles
- Sonification for emotion regulation/meditation of drivers in autonomous vehicles
- Sonic interaction to build the feeling of trust as well as safety
- Sonification for the use cases of electric/hybrid vehicles (e.g., charging, low battery, etc.)
- Driver (or occupant) & vehicle agent dialogue design
- Driving as playing instruments (driving sonification)
- In-vehicle application of spatial (or 3D) sounds for new experiences
WORKSHOPS AND TUTORIALS
ICAD workshops and tutorials provide in-depth opportunities for conference attendees to discuss and explore important aspects of the field of auditory display with like-minded researchers and practitioners. Sessions can range from applications and programming methodologies to interdisciplinary research skills, emerging research areas, and challenge problems, to sonification/compositional Maker sessions.
Space, facilities, technical support, and the number of workshop and tutorial sessions that can be accepted are limited, so early submission of proposals is encouraged. Workshop and tutorial organizers are expected to collaborate with the conference committee, issue calls for participation, gather and review contributed materials (if appropriate), and decide upon the final programme for their session.
IMPORTANT DATES:
- Friday 15th March 2019 — Deadline for submission of full papers and the HMC design challenge
- Friday 29th March 2019 — Workshop/Tutorial proposals due
- Friday 26 April 2019 — Notification of decisions
- Friday 3 May 2019 — Extended abstract submission (some full paper submissions may be recommended for the extended abstract category)

((( MUME 2019 )))
The 7th International Workshop on Musical Metacreation
http://musicalmetacreation.org
June 17-18, 2019, Charlotte, North Carolina
MUME 2019 is to be held at the University of North Carolina Charlotte in conjunction with the 10th International Conference on Computational Creativity, ICCC 2019 (http://computationalcreativity.net/iccc2019).
=== Important Dates ===
Workshop submission deadline: February 24, 2019
Notification date: April 28, 2019
Camera-ready version: May 19, 2019
Workshop dates: June 17-18, 2019
======================
Metacreation applies tools and techniques from artificial intelligence, artificial life, and machine learning, themselves often inspired by cognitive and natural science, for creative tasks. Musical Metacreation studies the design and use of these generative tools and theories for music making: discovery and exploration of novel musical styles and content, collaboration between human performers and creative software “partners”, and design of systems in gaming and entertainment that dynamically generate or modify music.
MUME intends to bring together artists, practitioners, and researchers interested in developing systems that autonomously (or interactively) recognize, learn, represent, compose, generate, complete, accompany, or interpret music. As such, we welcome contributions to the theory or practice of generative music systems and their applications in new media, digital art, and entertainment at large.
Topics
===========================
We encourage paper and demo submissions on MUME-related topics, including the following:
-- Models, Representation and Algorithms for MUME
---- Novel representations of musical information
---- Advances or applications of AI, machine learning, and statistical techniques for generative music
---- Advances of A-Life, evolutionary computing or agent and multi-agent based systems for generative music
---- Computational models of human musical creativity
-- Systems and Applications of MUME
---- Systems for autonomous or interactive music composition
---- Systems for automatic generation of expressive musical interpretation
---- Systems for learning or modeling music style and structure
---- Systems for intelligently remixing or recombining musical material
---- Online musical systems (i.e. systems with a real-time element)
---- Adaptive and generative music in video games
---- Generative systems in sound synthesis, or automatic synthesizer design
---- Techniques and systems for supporting human musical creativity
---- Emerging musical styles and approaches to music production and performance involving the use of AI systems
---- Applications of musical metacreation for digital entertainment: sound design, soundtracks, interactive art, etc.
-- Evaluation of MUME
---- Methodologies for qualitative or quantitative evaluation of MUME systems
---- Studies reporting on the evaluation of MUME
---- Socio-economical Impact of MUME
---- Philosophical implication of MUME
---- Authorship and legal implications of MUME
Submission Format and Requirements
=================================
Please make submissions via the EasyChair system at:
https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=mume2019
The workshop is a day and a half event that includes:
-Presentations of FULL TECHNICAL PAPERS (8 pages maximum)
-Presentations of POSITION PAPERS and WORK-IN-PROGRESS PAPERS (5 pages maximum)
-Presentations of DEMONSTRATIONS (3 pages maximum) which present outputs of systems (working live or offline).
All papers should be submitted as complete works. Demo systems should be tested and working by the time of submission, rather than be speculative. We encourage audio and video material to accompany and illustrate the papers (especially for demos). We ask that authors arrange for their web hosting of audio and video files, and give URL links to all such files within the text of the submitted paper.
Submissions do not have to be anonymized, as we use single-blind reviewing. Each submission will be reviewed by at least three program committee members.
Workshop papers will be published as MUME 2019 Proceedings and will be archived with an ISBN number. Please use the updated MuMe paper template to format your paper. Also please feel free to edit the licence entry (at the bottom left of the first page of the new template). We created a new MUME 2019 template based on AAAI template. The MUME 2019 latex and Word template is available at:
http://musicalmetacreation.org/buddydrive/file/templates_mume2019/
Submission should be uploaded using MUME 2019 EasyChair portal:
https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=mume2019
