For those of you in Toronto on Friday, July 4th, Matt Nish-Lapidus and I
are part of a show called Circus Circus Circus at B-Sides. Both of us do
sets entirely in Pd. And I will be unveiling a project that uses my
crude electronics skills: a teddy bear underwent surgery to have LEDs
implanted in the eyes that pulse with the music, thanks to a little
patch. Similar to the Teddy Borg (google it). Fab, eh?
Details at http://mentalfloss.ca/sintheta in the events section.

hi all,
pdp-0.12 is out. get it at http://zwizwa.fartit.com/pd/pdp
most important changes are the type conversion system, the addition of the
opengl library (now semi-stable), png image load/save support in pdp_reg, the
new matrix type and some new objects.
there are 2 new dependencies in the main pdp lib:
* libgsl (required)
* libpng (optional)
from the changelog:
v0.12: 2003/06/21
added support for high level packet conversion (mime-like descriptions)
added pdp_convert
added "memlimit" message to pdp_control (to limit pdp's mem usage)
maximum nb of packets is now only limited by the memlimit
added new basic type: bitmap/*/* (PDP_BITMAP) for standard fourcc formats
cleaned up pdp_xv/glx (x window glue code reuse)
fixed rgb/bgr bug in conversion code
added pdp_abs, pdp_zthresh
completed dpd framework (for context based processing, i.e. 3dp)
rewrote gem like 3d library on top of dpd (it's almost stable)
added a matrix type (float/double real/complex) for linear algebra stuff
added matrix processors pdp_m_*: mv, mm, +=mm, LU, LU_inverse, LU_solve
pdp_cheby now accepts an array with a mapping function
added pdp_plasma
fixed outlet_pdp bug (this caused all kind of weirdness)
added embedded scheme interpreter for testing (see the guile/ dir)
added simple forth-style scripting language (pdp's rpn calculator)
added png load/save support to pdp_reg
enjoy,
tom
Hi all,
I've put out version 0.37 test 6 on the usual:

This should fix several bugs... most notably, ASIO should
now work on windows.

Prague Biennale 1
IMPROVisual
June 26 2003
at Club Roxy Prague
Praha 1, Dlouhá 33
starting from 11 p.m.
June 28 2003
at NoD Gallery
Roxy experimental venue, 1st floor
Praha 1, Dlouhá 33
starting from 11 p.m.
Organised as a special project of the first Prague Biennale, IMPROVisual is
a two-night event dedicated to the live interaction of sound and image. For
the first time, a Biennale proposes live VJing as a kind of artistic
practice. IMPROVisual will be held at the Roxy, one of the most
prestigious alternative music venues in Europe, in the center of Prague.
The artists selected are the Canadian duo [ s k o l t z _ k o l g e n ], who
will present an ultra-minimal, black-and-white performance of glitch music;
the 242.pilots, a video improvisation ensemble, award-winners at
Transmediale, who will present a special collaboration with the sound artist
Kelly; Otolab, who will perform a techno polyphony of laptops; and Phase,
resident VJ crew at the Roxy.
Excerpt from the essay in the catalogue: "IMPROVisual ventures to explore
the ways in which the liveness of digital media performances brings a new
kind of contact with reality into the audio-visual work. Electronic music is
a pure sound event in which there is no specific image of the sound source,
allowing the music to suggest new visual landscapes. Works investigating the
live interaction of sound and image are freed up to concentrate on
improvisation instead of reproduction, as reality no longer means an
external thing. Improvisation is like a black hole, a secret taboo of
rational thought...A Jewish philosopher, Vladimir Jankélévitch, after Henri
Bergson, tried to put at the heart of his meditation this strange
concept...The mystic origin of the Roxy club, a former Yiddish theatre,
seems to suggest an almost theological meditation on the essence of moving
images. The Jewish prohibition of representation and iconoclastic
condemnation of idolatry of images could be considered a secret
mystic ground for this live visual music..."

I recently completed my iFeel mouse external. It controls the tactile
feedback in iFeel-supported mice. It works, but still has some bugs.
Plus it is currently only for Linux right now. Get it here:
