Pix_video dialog problem
by Jonathan Goodwin 11 Feb '06

11 Feb '06

Weird... I've on 10.4.4...maybe that's the problem! The dialog opens fine, but then just hangs. I don't think it's a prob with my computer though, as I downloaded a self-contained Max VJ patch the other day, and that had a button to open the same dialog, and it worked fine?!

Pix_video dialog problem
by Jonathan Goodwin 11 Feb '06

11 Feb '06

After listening to the advice of the list on which webcam to get, and finding it surprisingly difficult to find a webcam that has a corresponding driver from the source forge repository - I've decided to hire an Apple i-sight from college for the weekend to see how I get on with it before committing to the £80 odd for a purchase! It's working so far, except when I open the settings via the [dialog( message, PD (or perhaps rather the config panel) freezes, then shortly afterwards quits. (OS X 10.4, PD-0.38.4-extended-RC7, GEM 0.90.0)

Help with a patch
by David Powers 11 Feb '06

11 Feb '06

Hello list, I am making a simple patch to automatically morph between parameters every so often. One idea for this is, if I end up VJing at the 6 am afterparty and I am too drunk, I can have it morph things for me and I can take a break. :) Well, I'm not sure if that is a joke, or if it's true. Anyway, I know I'm doing something stupid with this patch, that causes it not to work right. The first time I run it, I hit bang, and it outputs twice to the print, instead of once - there is some kind of loop that I don't want. After that, if I bang it again, it seems to work perfectly. So, can someone tell me what the mistake is in my logic, and the best way to fix it? I can think of a hack fix, but I'd rather know a more logical solution. Thanks, David #N canvas 311 83 876 527 12; #X obj 157 209 line; #X obj 183 72 t b b; #X obj 157 163 pack 0 0; #X floatatom 499 161 5 0 0 0 - - -; #X obj 254 103 random 3000; #X obj 303 204 print; #X obj 214 133 + 500; #X obj 168 301 == 0; #X obj 174 399 sel 1; #X obj 160 354 change; #X obj 150 25 bng 15 250 50 0 empty empty empty 0 -6 0 8 -262144 -1 -1; #X obj 499 280 mtof; #X obj 496 345 phasor~; #X obj 500 196 / 2; #X obj 496 237 + 15; #X obj 469 456 dac~; #X floatatom 17 275 5 0 0 0 - - -; #N canvas 0 0 466 316 get_new_target 0; #X obj 32 20 inlet; #X obj 102 223 outlet; #X obj 24 171 f; #X obj 94 161 sel 0; #X obj 171 166 f; #X obj 23 84 random 128; #X obj 186 95 oneshot; #X connect 0 0 5 0; #X connect 2 0 3 0; #X connect 3 0 5 0; #X connect 3 1 4 0; #X connect 3 1 1 0; #X connect 4 0 3 1; #X connect 5 0 2 0; #X restore 19 122 pd get_new_target; #X obj 171 446 s top; #X obj 191 30 r top; #X obj 317 454 s out; #X obj 494 114 r out; #X connect 0 0 7 0; #X connect 0 0 20 0; #X connect 1 0 17 0; #X connect 1 1 4 0; #X connect 2 0 0 0; #X connect 2 0 5 0; #X connect 3 0 13 0; #X connect 4 0 6 0; #X connect 6 0 2 1; #X connect 7 0 9 0; #X connect 8 0 18 0; #X connect 9 0 8 0; #X connect 10 0 1 0; #X connect 11 0 12 0; #X connect 12 0 15 0; #X connect 12 0 15 1; #X connect 13 0 14 0; #X connect 14 0 11 0; #X connect 17 0 2 0; #X connect 17 0 7 1; #X connect 17 0 16 0; #X connect 19 0 1 0; #X connect 21 0 3 0;

GOP positioning
by cyborgk＠nocturnalnoize.com 11 Feb '06

11 Feb '06

Related to a question someone just asked: How exactly does one control the appearance of GOP subpatches in the master patch? I always end up with sliders stuck together and overlapping on my master patches... Thanks, David P.S. : I'm recently getting back into PD/GEM in a more serious way, so be expecting to get a lot of questions from me. I'm hoping I don't have to end up resorting to Max/MSP + Jitter, but still some things I need seem missing. Of course, one issue is no [hid] [pdp] or [pidip] on Windows ... if there was a SIMPLE and audio-ready Linux install I could use just for PD as a second OS on my laptop I'd consider it, but my past (bad) experiences installing Linux have not made me too keen on trying this...

video querying
by Tina Shah 10 Feb '06

10 Feb '06

Hi, I need help trying to figure out if pd/gem/framestein can help me with a project I have in mind. I'm just starting to use pd/gem now, so I'm still unsure of its possibilities. Basically I'm trying to compare two sets of video databases in relation to average color, sound and possibly shapes. I'm thinking I will have to compare the videos frame by frame, but basically I want the two sets of videos to match up when there are similar color and sound queries. If anyone has any ideas on how to do this with pd/gem, I would appreciate your help! Thanks, -T

strcmp (zexy) bug ?
by Georg Holzmann 10 Feb '06

10 Feb '06

Hallo IOhannes, list! I just experienced a strange behaviour with strcmp and I don't know if that's a bug or correct ... example: [list ha ha( | [t l l] | | [strcmp] should be always 0 !? (because it's the same) but it is only sometimes 0 on my computer ... ? (pd 0.39 - latest zexy cvs) attached is an example patch ... LG Georg #N canvas 128 394 435 310 10; #X obj 108 159 strcmp; #X msg 114 89 list bla bla sdf; #X floatatom 109 222 5 0 0 0 - - -; #X obj 109 116 t l l; #X text 155 220 <- sometimes 0 \, sometimes not ?; #X text 43 252 (normal muessts ja immer 0 sein wenns gleich is?); #X connect 0 0 2 0; #X connect 1 0 3 0; #X connect 3 0 0 0; #X connect 3 1 0 1;

FW: MA Digital Performance - School of Arts, Brunel University, West London
by Paul Verity Smith 10 Feb '06

10 Feb '06

Apologies for cross posting MA in Digital Performance School of Arts Brunel University West London Course Convener: Paul Verity Smith This is a distinctive and unique interdisciplinary program focused on industry graduate needs, and involves collaboration between the School of Arts and the School of Engineering and Design. It centers on the integration of creative arts with science and technology to develop students' skills to advanced levels and to equip them with the expertise to contribute to, as well as respond to, the rapidly changing requirements of the creative, broadcast and communication industries. Drawing on significant academic, creative and technological strengths from both Schools, the program's high degree of currency and interdisciplinarity, as well as its emphasis on employability, will be highly attractive to students. The teaching team includes: Steve Dixon, Johannes Birringer, Stelarc, Sue Broadhurst, Gretchen Schiller, Paul Verity Smith, and Kjell Petersen. The program is designed to educate and train multi-skilled artist-technicians, enabling them to adapt their techniques to different art, entertainment and media forms. A clear skill gap has been identified within the theatre, broadcast and communication industries (as well as in the art gallery sector) for expert and creative technicians who are not only able to realize directors/artists' ambitions for highly technological films and broadcasts, theatre/dance performances, animations, music compositions, and installations, but also to pro-actively collaborate and artistically contribute to them. Graduates will also be initiators and producers of their own original work across a range of electronic arts and performance, as well as participating in the development of new modes of cultural and artistic practices. The program incorporates development of business, production and entrepreneurial skills, recognizing the demands for multi-skilled and collaborative approaches in the industry.

Hi, this mail is to inform that Bill Schottstaedt just put up documentation for the snd pd external in the snd-manual: http://ccrma.stanford.edu/software/snd/snd/grfsnd.html#sndwithpd The documentation also also contains a screen-shot of a pretty neat stochastic pd patch made by Bill Sack, which use the snd external. If you know (and like) lisp, pd and snd, you should check this out...
