BEK survives (was: URGENT - BEK: Call for support)
by 220hex 22 Jan '04

22 Jan '04

Last autumn BEK, Bergen Centre for Electronic Arts, was running the risk of having to close down due to lack of future fundings. To prevent this we launched a massive lobbying campaign towards the Ministry of Culture, The Norwegian Parliament, The Municipality of Bergen, etc. We also called for artists and others concerned to express their support for BEK at our website. Almost 600 persons responded to this call for support. Concidering that BEK is a small and young organization, that was very impressive. The support statements were forwarded to all relevant politicians and bureaucrats: http://www.bek.no/demo_html Shortly before christmas the Parliament decided to grant support for BEK for the future. In the beginning of January The Norwegian Council for Cultural Affairs and the Ministry of Culture desided to provide additional funding for BEK. BEK now has a long-term security concerning fundings that we have never experienced before. On behalf of everyone involved with BEK (staff, artists, users, etc.) I want to express our gratitude towards all of you that supported us.

Routing PD audio on MacOSX
by Adam Lindsay 21 Jan '04

21 Jan '04

Hey all, Mac users who are trying to get Jack going, be aware that Cycling 74 has released the free Soundflower driver, which works really well with routing sound output from other apps (like iTunes, even) into Pd for munging. <http://www.synthesisters.com/download/Soundflower.sit> A whole lot of entertainment for minimal effort, if you ask me. ;) adam -- =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Adam T.

21 Jan '04

Hello all, Any explanation as to why my_canvas labels keep disappearing on me? They just end up as blank after I've saved a patch a few times. This it .37t3 on WinXP. This doesn't seem to happen with .37 proper. Cheers, David -- . . David McCallum . Music wants to be free . http://mentalfloss.ca/sintheta .

NTSC SD (720x480 @ 30fps) is just barely possible on my 1ghz Tibook if the render patch is very lightweight. This is under 10.2 though and I have heard that glReadPixels is much improved on 10.3 - the Apple engineers quoted a 3ms time to return the buffer on similar hardware. >inputting video would have been my second question: i only managed >to read in a qt-mov, how would i get the video-signal from a cam >connected via firewire? use pix_video. give the object arguments for the dimensions of your capture like: [pix_video 720 576] and it will grab a full PAL frame from the DV cam. one thing to note is that for some reason QT has this 'high quality' flag for video capture that does contradictory things depending on what type of device you plug in. if you use a FW webcam then send a 'quality 1' message followed by a 'reset' message to the object. if you use a DV cam then do the same thing only with 'quality 0'. the difference is that the 1 level will be fast but interlaced and the latter will be a little slower but de-interlaced. 1 is supposedly 'high quality' although I think interlaced DV looks very low quality. oh well. >thanx for taking the time. julean you're welcome. cgc

removing dc offset from an array?
by Eric Skogen 21 Jan '04

21 Jan '04

hi kids is there a way to remove dc offsets in arrays? perhaps using vasp? i ask this because after normalizing my data array, most of that data is hovering near the top of the scale range. i want to rescale the data to a range of -1 to 1, taking into account the lowest and highest numbers in the array. the lowest number would then be remapped -1 and the highest number remapped to 1. i figured if i could offset the array to the center, then renormalize again, i would get the results i need. sorry i'm such a math idiot! any ideas? --eric

(zexy) list2symbol problem
by Martin Dupras 21 Jan '04

21 Jan '04

Hi, I'm using l2s (from zexy) in order to concatenate together lists of variable lengths with pack, in other words: [this is( [the text( [I want to pack( | | | [l2s] [l2s] [l2s] | | | [pack s s s ] (hope the above makes sense). This is working fine, and I'm doing that because I need the middle bit to change dynamically, e.g. change [the text( to [another bit of text( Here's the twist though. I end up with a list of three items when what I really need is a list of all the words, each a symbol. Is there a way to do that? Thanks, - martin

compilation of dyn and py source packages
by Thomas Grill 21 Jan '04

21 Jan '04

Hi, all of you that tried to compile dyn or py from the published source packages will have realized that it doesn't work... the reason is that the file make-files.txt is missing in all of the packages. I uploaded them again. Many thanks to Erasmus Zipfel for pointing that out. best greetings, Thomas
