hi list,
releasing artnetlib:
---------readme-----------
turn your Pd patch into an Art-Net controller.
Art-Net is an Ethernet protocol based on the TCP/IP protocol suite. Its
purpose is to allow
transfer of large amounts of DMX512 data over a wide area using standard
networking
technology.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Art-Nethttps://www.artisticlicence.com/WebSiteMaster/User%20Guides/art-net.pdf
artnetlib is a Pd library with 5 objects:
- [artnetfromarray]
- polls a Pd array and convert the values to a list of DMX 1 byte ints
- [artnetsend]
- format a Pd list of ints with an _ArtDMX_ header where you specify
"physical" and "universe".
- [artnetudp]
- send the _ArtDMX_ package to a specified ip
- sends _ArtPoll_ and receive _ArtPollReply_ (used to discover the
presence of other Controllers, Nodes and Media Servers.)
- receive data from other Art-Net compatible devices
- [artnetroute]
- routes received _ArtDMX_ packages according to its "physical" and
"universe".
- [artnettoarray]
- convert _ArtDMX_ packages to a Pd list.

New Master in Composition with Focus on AI - HfM Trossingen
Application period March 1 - April 1, 2023
Starting in October 2023, the University of Music (HfM) Trossingen
(Germany) will offer a master's degree program that is unique in Europe
and aims to train a new generation of artistically and technically
competent composers, sound artists, and music designers, especially by
critically exploring the creative possibilities of AI-based technologies.
This program (Master of Music in Composition) builds on the music
technology teaching foundations of the HfM Trossingen and takes place in
close cooperation with Furtwangen University. The students are taught by
an internationally renowned team of researchers and experienced artistic
practitioners, first and foremost Prof. Dr. Luc Döbereiner and Prof. Dr.
Joachim Goßmann. In addition, this course is being developed within the
framework of a cross-university project funded by the BMBF (KISS -
Artificial Intelligence Service and Systems), whose long-term goal is to
establish a center of excellence for the sustainable development of AI.
As part of the master's program, interested students with prior musical
and/or technical experience at the bachelor's level can choose one of
three concentrations: Music Design, Instrumental Composition, or
Electroacoustic Composition. Available modules of study range from
Digital Lutherie, Experimental Sound Synthesis, and Interface Design to
Sound Ecology and Digital Ethics. In addition, a new space for the
conception, experimentation and realisation of artistic projects
("Latent Space" - Space for Artistic Research and Design in Music and
AI) is being created.
The entrance examination consists of two phases. In the first phase, in
addition to the general application documents, the following documents
must be submitted (via Post, USB-stick with max. file-size of 1 GB):
Motivation letter (max. 1 page)
Curriculum vitae including chronological overview of
musical/artistic development
Media documentation of own works with explanation (min. 2 pages)
Exposé - description of the planned artistic project (max. 3 pages)
After reviewing the documents, the examination committee selects

ELSE 1.0-0 rc7 with Live Electronics Tutorial is out. These ELSE updates
are only happening this often to pair up with PlugData releases, which is
rocking hard (expect a PlugData release announcement soon) - btw, this
means I'm not really following my release plans towards a my release...
On breaking changes, I'm highlighting that I'm removing the recently added
support for pd-lua. It is still available in PlugData though! I couldn't
really get into it and Albert Graef is really active in its development. So
now plugdata users have to download it separately for vanilla, and yes, I
uploaded the latest version (0.11.6) to deken as well. I thought I could
maybe create my own pd-lua variant but I gave it up. I'd still like to
offer something like ofelia does, but it's way beyond my limits and way
down in my priorities. By the way, Albert also started porting ELSE to Purr
Data, check it out ==>
https://github.com/agraef/purr-data/releases/tag/2.19.2+ELSE
There are also many bug fixes and new features. Let me highlight that most
of my oscillators now have built-in "Soft Sync" capabilities! They can also
optionally take pitch in MIDI, which helps with exponential FM. As for new
objects, I'm including [beats~], a bpm detection based on aubio. Seb shader
also included a new [keycode] object that responds to computer keyboard
keys with layout independence and I'm using it for another object
([keymap]) that turns your computer keyboard into a MIDI keyboard input.
For last, I'm also including [plaits~], which is based on the PLAITS module
from Mutable Instruments. More clones from Mutable Instruments are coming
and I have to say I have big plans in 2023 to also design eurorack inspired
abstractions (like MAX's Beap and Automatonism). This should be a submodule
in ELSE and available in PlugData too, but will have its own name and
repository (it is called *Modular EuroRacks Dancing Along* *[M.E.R.D.A.]*).
I also have a new chapter in my tutorial about 'CV' (Control Voltage). So,
yeah, I'm going modular...
ELSE 1.0-0 RC7 is up on deken for Linux/mac/windows 64 bit versions. I'm
having issues building for raspberry pi (same for pd-lua) but can upload it
if someone helps me with that. Total number of objects is now 474 and total
number of examples in the tutorial is 498 (expect me to go beyond 475
objects and 500 examples in the next update). Here's a full changelog:
https://github.com/porres/pd-else/releases/tag/v1.0-rc7
If you've read this far, you probably care about this project of mine. May
I ask you then to consider supporting me on
PATREON --> https://www.patreon.com/porres?l=en
I promise to focus on issues and request from subscribers and this already
happened for this release, where I was able to improve [else/bicoeff]
thanks to 'Esa Ruoho'. I also promise to take motivation from patreon
support to keep collaborating to Pd Vanilla as well :) as in my tedious and
long revisions of the documentation and other stuff.
Cheers
Celebrating the 7th anniversary of our takeover, Cyclone 0.7-0 has been
released today on february 21st 2023.
The main goal for 7 years has been updating cyclone to MAX 7, the major
release version at the time in 2016. I thought we had taken care of all
updates but we missed [mtr], an object that got updates sometime after 7.0
and ironically this is one that got too much new stuff. Amongst new
messages and attributes, there are almost 30 new things, no kidding. Many
of which can't even be included in cyclone because we miss some stuff like
dictionary and transport.
We included some of the main things and started dealing with it... we now
have 'speed', 'trackspeed', 'embed' and 'loop', but the thing is that the
design of this object is questionable and things don't work quite well,
like 'looping'. This is a usual problem in Cyclone, implementing things as
they are originally instead of how they should be if designed in a
sane way... [mtr] is also a feature creep nightmare and some things will be
really hard to implement, but let's see.
Worst case scenario we'll stop at one point and say we couldn't make it and
only reached like 99% of our goal :) I guess cannot help but pass the
impression that I am not so happy and excited about keeping up with this, I
am really busy with ELSE and also Vanilla stuff. We may be reaching the
point where Cyclone's development of new stuff will stop and we'll keep it
in maintenance mode.
I am not sure we'll pursue MAX 8 updates, but maybe that can happen if
nothing crazy like [mtr] happens. For now, not much really happened in MAX
8 so I don't wanna discard it yet. Let's see if we can do it when MAX 9
comes out. The thing is that cyclone contains a limited set of MAX/MSP and
MAX has been adding new things all the time, which makes it a bit pointless
to get a limited set of things updated to the last version. The other thing
is not caring much about this anymore after 7 years :)
Other things in this release is that [comment] is basically done, before
realizing [mtr] updates were missing, this was the last thing that needed
finishing and we also said we couldn't include all features from MAX 7 in
it. This object now has also extra features just for cyclone, something
that rarely happens in Cyclone. To be honest, this is now a clone of
[else/note], an object that first started based on cyclone/comment. Anyway,
this thing finally has a properties windows, thanks to Tim Schoen, and is
now acceptable!
I did some other funny thing. I expanded [pink~], which now also has extra
features, it is now the same object as else/pink~, which has extra features
and is backwards compatible to the old cyclone/pink~. I hope people don't
mind this.

it should be up in deken

ICAD 2023
2nd Call for Submission of Papers, Extended Abstracts,
Workshops/Tutorials, and Music/Installations
28th International Conference on Auditory Display
Norrköping, Sweden
26 June – 01 July 2023
https://icad2023.icad.org
THEME: “SONIFICATION FOR THE MASSES”
After decades of research dedicated to sonification in terms of audio
signal processing, aesthetics, art and design, perception, awareness and
human factors, accessibility, auditory augmentation and mixed reality,
auditory displays have reached a state with tools and principles that
work. It is about time for the breakthrough of sonification in terms of
implementation in mass media and consumer markets: Sonification for the
masses! The ICAD 2023 committee is seeking full papers, abstracts,
concert pieces, demos, installations, workshops, and tutorials from
across the full spectrum of auditory display research and practice. This
year, we are particularly interested in use cases from everyday life,
implementations in mass media, sonification evaluation by wider
populations, concepts of sonification in education, learnability and
pleasantness of sonifications, and other ways to tackle the theme of
sonification for the general public. How informative, aesthetic,
universally applicable or specified do sonifications need to be in order
to be beneficial for users outside the audio community? During the
student think tank, students and young researchers get the chance to
exchange ideas and learn from established members of the auditory
display community. As a satellite event, we are organizing the
Sonic-Tilt competition, where researchers, students and artists submit
their own sound design for Tiltification, a bullseye spirit level
available in the Google Play Store and Apple App Store.

Hi everyone!
I’ve never officially posted here yet about plugdata, so here we go! plugdata v0.6.4 is out now, you can get it here: https://github.com/plugdata-team/plugdata/releases/tag/v0.6.4
Alexandre Porres informed you a few days ago about v0.6.3, this version fixes some of the most important bugs we encountered in there.
plugdata is a Pd flavour with a new GUI made with JUCE, and the ability to run both standalone or as a VST3/AU/LV2 plugin in any DAW. It comes with the ELSE and cyclone libraries built-in. You can set up your own themes and keyboard shortcuts, it has a built-in package manager (similar to Deken), and most objects/inlets/outlets have tooltips that inform you on how to use that object. The recent versions also integrates with the Heavy compiler, to allow exporting patches directly to Electro-Smith Daisy, audio plugins, or C++ code.
Tim


To Pd announce -
The pd~ Max object (which allows you to embed Pd patches in Max/MSP) is now
available for the M1 architecture in a test version (0.55test1). You can
get it at the usual spot: http://msp.ucsd.edu/software.html
It _should_ be possible to run it in Max version 8 for either intel or "M1"
(apple) architecture, using Pd compiled for either architecture - but I haven't
tried out all the permutations yet.
Bug reports are most welcome, either to Pd list or to me personally.
cheers
Miller
