Hi, I've been working this year on a new library called "ELSE", this first
beta release, and it is up in deken for Windows, Mac and Windows. Here's my
repository github.com/porres/pd-else
It has 134 objects as of now, and I plan to keep adding more until the
stable release. It is a multi purpose / swiss army knife library, with
basic building blocks for patching, such as oscillators, filters, etc... it
is strongly oriented towards sample accuracy, so you can trigger objects
with impulses and gates. SuperCollider is also like that, so I stole a
bunch stuff and ideas from their objects.
My idea is to heavily rely on it and in cyclone to patch the examples in my
didactic material - that I've been developing for 9 years.
I'm presenting a paper tomorrow about it here in São Paulo, Brazil, at SBCM
( http://compmus.ime.usp.br/sbcm/2017/ ). Here's the paper:

Any feedback is welcome
Thanks
this is just to announce, that the latest and greatest Pd is now also
available pre-packaged for Debian 9 ("stretch").
Debian/stretch has been released in June 2017, *before* Pd-0.48 was
released. Debian policy does not allow updating packages after a Debian
release, which often means that users end up with out-of-date packages
(after all, Debian does a release every 2 years or so; which means that
available packages can be several years old - esp. if people insist on
not upgrading to the latest Debian/stable).
in comes Debian/backports, which allows users to install up-to-date
packages on their stable Debian systems, with full Debian support.
For instructions on how to enable this, see:
http://backports.debian.org/
I intend to provide backports for all Pd related packages (Pd-vanilla
and all those externals available).
I do not intend to provide backports for Debian/jessie (RaspberryPi
users are advised to upgrade to Debian/stretch; really anybody is
advised to do that)

sidenote: i generally recommend to use Debian/stable on servers, and use
Debian/testing (constantly updating) for anything multimedia related (as
you usually don't want to use multimedia applications that are several
years old). with Debian/backports you can have the best of two worlds -
a rock solid OS with some select up-to-date applications.

Dear music enthusiasts,
>From automatic composition, live musical agents to sound synthesis
parameter tuning and automatic mixing, Musical Metacreation (
http://musicalmetacreation.org/) is the community that gather artists and
researchers interested in the partial or complete automation of musical
tasks.
After 5 successful International workshop on Musical Metacreation, we are
offering a new communication channel for those interested specifically in
generative music and all that surrounds it. We started a google group /
mailing list, and you can subscribe here:

Join the group, and spread the word where appropriate. We are looking
forward to reading your posts.

To Pd-announce:
Pd version 0.48-0test6 is available on http://msp.ucsd.edu/software.htm
or via git from github:
git clone https://github.com/pure-data/pure-data.git
This fixes the major bugs I'm aware of from "test5" and earlier. Many minor
problems and wish-list items remain, but I think most of them can wait for a
future release.

RELEASE ANNOUNCEMENT
VECTOR SYNTHESIS LIBRARY 0.1
The Vector Synthesis library allows the creation and manipulation of 2D
and 3D vector shapes, Lissajous figures, and scan processed image and
video inputs using audio signals sent directly to oscilloscopes, hacked
CRT monitors, Vectrex game consoles, ILDA laser displays, or
oscilloscope emulation softwares using the Pure Data programming
environment.
Please check the README.md file for a full list of requirements,
capabilities, and acknowledgements to the amazing people who have helped
me along the way.

We got a new release of Cyclone (0.3 beta 2) - the library that clones
Max/MSP objects! Not much news here, but the fact that this version will be
the first version from cyclone 0.3 to be included in the next Purr Data
release soon. I know I said this about the release of "cyclone 0.3 beta 1",
but this time this is for real ;)
Most important changes from beta1 are: operators from the cyclone sub
library (like >~, <~, etc) now accept the "cyclone/" prefix, to be
compatible to Purr Data, which will not requite a library to load these
objects as it has the [hexloader] external built-in.
I hope vanilla could have [hexloader] built in, but this is too unlikely,
so the plan is not only to keep using a library named cyclone to carry
these operators, but also to include all objects from cyclone into this
single binary pack, in the same way as cyclone was once originally
distributed.
A couple of other highlights is that we also made major fixes for old
[sprintf] and took care of a bug we introduced to [funnel].
This should be up in deken in a day or so, but you can download it here if
you like: https://github.com/porres/pd-cyclone/releases
And stay tuned for the next Purr Data release
cheers
