Hi list, i need to load .txt files with data into tables. But my .txt file is not forrmated and theres some texts i need to get rid from my files: my .txt looks like this: Format IAGA-2002 | Source of Data Institute of Geophysics NAS of Ukraine | Station Name Kiev Dymer | IAGA CODE KIV | Geodetic Latitude 50.700 | Geodetic Longitude 30.300 | Elevation | Reported XYZF | Sensor Orientation | Digital Sampling | Data Interval Type 1-minute | Data Type variation | # This data file was created using INTERMAGNET data | # from the Edinburgh GIN.

I just need to load the 3 last colums into tables starting at line 20. Is it possible to tell pd to load just specific specific part of my .txt file? or which is the best approach for this? I can copy the data by hand but since i have tons of .txt files im looking for an automatic way of doing this. cheers Umberto.

Displaying waveform on an array trick and sliders works on pd 0.42 but not on 0.43
by Alexandre Torres Porres 23 Sep '12

23 Sep '12

Hi there, perhaphs if I trhow the patch out there it'll force me to finally write a manual for it and officially release it. But my main motivation is a doubt about the way it displays the waveform. So go ahead and get this sampler phase-vocoder I've been working on for years now. See that I have a trick that makes it display the waveform AS and WHILE You're Recording on the table/array. the beta test patch is at https://docs.google.com/open?id=0B3AoiT0xk8fnYnZlUGo2ZU85aG8 I was using Pd-Extended 0.42.5 for that, and it was working. Then I tried both vanilla 0.43 whatever and the beta for Extended and the trick doesn't work no more, so you have to wait until the whole buffer is full and then it displays it. Now, that's not the only thing, the slider that keeps tracks fo the player doesn't work either on 0.43 when the buffer is being fed to... Now, going way back, to the version of this patch from 2 years ago, when it was much much much simpler, you can see that there are only 2 sliders on it, and we have the same problem. They work well on 0.42, but not on 0.43 the old one is at: https://docs.google.com/open?id=0B3AoiT0xk8fnSjR2bmZBNWRIeWc by the way, I hope you can play along with the patch very intuitively even if I don't have a manual as of yet. Cheers cheers

Looking for a way to add bytes to beginning of a file using [binfile]
by Antonio Roberts 23 Sep '12

23 Sep '12

I'm attempting to use [binfile] to add additional bytes to a file. If I first read the file - using [read( - and then specify the write position - [writeat 0 ( - when I add bytes they _overwrite_ the already existing bytes instead of adding new ones. Previously I have used one [binfile] object to read a file output each byte of it to another [binfile] object. This method has worked great for small files but when I'm faced with 60mb files it takes far too long! Is there a way to add bytes to the beginning of a file without overwriting? Thanks Antonio -- ============================ antonio(a)hellocatfood.com http://www.hellocatfood.com ============================

Re: [PD] RPi overclocking
by Dirk Myers 23 Sep '12

I've been using this when compiling things on the pi, which will fully use the CPU for long periods of time. This seems to make a noticeable, but not extreme, difference... though I have not timed it.

-nogui, no Pd, no way back?
by Alexandre Torres Porres 23 Sep '12

23 Sep '12

hi there, I thought I'd see what this -nogui flag was about and now Pd doesn't run anymore, I have mac os 10.7, intel I re-downloaded, replaced it, but somehow this flag seems to remain there somewhere and it won't open again. I tried this with Pd and Pd-Extended, and even downloaded different versions of them. Once I put that flag in there, there seems to be no way back. Or is there? Where can I edit this back? And what was it supposed to do anyway? thanks

CFP: ACM Creativity and Cognition 2013
by Sam Ferguson 23 Sep '12

23 Sep '12

********************************* ACM Creativity and Cognition 2013 Sydney, Australia 17th-20th June, 2013 http://cc13.creativityandcognition.com ********************************* The University of Technology, Sydney will host the International Conference on Creativity and Cognition from the 17th to the 20th of June 2013. The organising committee would like to invite you to join us in Sydney for another conference in this very successful series. For 2013 the conference theme will be `Intersections and Interactions', due to the inter-disciplinarity that is inherent in the study of creativity and cognition. June 2013 will be an exciting time for Sydney, as the International Symposium on Electronic Art (ISEA 2013) will run from the 7th to 16th, as well as the Vivid Festival of Arts from the 24th of May until the 10th of June. *************** IMPORTANT DATES 17th December 2012 – PAPER AND POSTER SUBMISSION DEADLINE Jan 12th - WORKSHOP PROPOSAL SUBMISSION DEADLINE 1st March 2013 – CREATIVITY & DEMONSTRATIONS SUBMISSION DEADLINE ******************************************* Call for PAPERS, POSTERS and DEMONSTRATIONS ******************************************* Creativity is sometimes thought of as being a human cognitive capacity to solve problems. Creativity is sometimes thought of as a process that occurs in the intersections between individuals, domains and fields. Creativity is sometimes viewed as a characteristic of an artifact, such as an artwork, or of a concept, such as a new scientific theory, that is both novel and valuable. The Creativity and Cognition Conference Series aims to be a common meeting ground where individuals can interact with others from different domains and fields to explore and share a variety of information, observations, insights and ideas about the human capacity to creatively solve problems and produce novel and valuable artifacts in their context and culture. As a single track conference the Creativity and Cognition conference series establishes a forum where people can “rub minds” with and hear about the work of others from a variety of domains and perspectives as they report and describe their engagement with that most complex of intersections–creativity and cognition. To this end, Creativity and Cognition 2013 seeks papers, posters and demonstrations from individuals and teams of people working in any of a variety of domains who seek to improve our understanding of this multifaceted domain that engages the interest and attention of people from so many different fields. General topics may include, but are not limited to: The study of creativity in an individual, in a group or a team, or in a particular cultural context. • Discussions of ways to foster creativity though the design, development and/or deployment of pedagogy, of technology support tools for creative work, or of environments and systems of support for creativity. Of particular interest is work on creative technology support tools that involves collaborations between artists and technologists. • Research reports on empirical assessment of various aspects of creativity and cognition that seek to deal with evaluation metrics, measures, and constraints using methodological approaches such as case studies, experimentation, modeling, or simulation. • Explorations of new or only partially explored intersections in creativity such as personal creativity in everyday life, the role of emotion in creativity, brain event scanning and recording, and any novel design and evaluation ideas that may one day be valuable to the Creativity and Cognition community. • Also of particular interest are papers, posters and demonstrations that describe artworks/performance works, etc. and that explore and reflect on the nature of creativity, the act of creation, and/or artistic expression. All submissions are to be anonymised, and presented in ACM format and templates can be found on the Submission page of the conference website. Papers and posters are to be submitted by 17 Dec 2012 through the easychair paper submission system. Papers are to be a maximum of 10 pages, while poster submissions are to be a maximum of 4 pages in length. Demonstrations are also invited, with a maximum of 2 pages in length, and will be due on the 1st of March 2013. ******************************************************** CALL FOR ARTWORKS, MUSIC, PERFORMANCES and INSTALLATIONS ******************************************************** We are calling for proposals for artworks, music, performances and installations to be presented in conjunction with the conference. We are seeking a wide variety of artworks related to (but not limited to) the conference theme of `intersections and interactions’. The exhibition of these works will be juried and presentation of works will be integrated into the conference program, in either a concert format, art exhibition or co-located installation, depending on available resources and locations. Formal proposals should be 2 pages in ACM format (see ‘Submission’), and should include the elements listed below. The 2-page text of these submissions will be published in the conference proceedings, but appendices (eg. staging diagrams, scores, large photos) should be included as extra pages in the same pdf, and these extra pages need not follow ACM format. For the proceedings the extra pages will not be published, only the formal 2-page submission will be published. Accepted submissions will need to be revised based on reviews and according to guidelines for camera-ready publication to be sent upon notification of acceptance. For ALL SUBMISSIONS (ARTWORK / INSTALLATION / MUSIC / PERFORMANCE PROPOSALS) Submit 2-page PDF proposal in ACM Format addressing the above following: • Title of work. • Clearly state the proposed performance. • Name(s) of participants/submitters • Short biography of artists/composers/performers/designers • 150-200 word summary/abstract of work, designed for inclusion in a program. ADDITIONALLY For MUSIC & PERFORMANCE PROPOSALS • Provide any recordings or documentation of previous performances, or scores of the work (if they exist). • List the number of performers and instrumentation (if necessary) • List equipment (if any) to be provided by the conference organisers. Note that equipment availability is limited and significant unusual technical requirements may restrict the possibility of acceptance of the work unless detailed plans are provided. ADDITIONALLY For ARTWORK & INSTALLATION PROPOSALS • Provide any documentation of previous presentations of this work. • Describe the space needed and the adaptability of the work. Information regarding available spaces will be posted on the website as it becomes available. • List equipment (if any) to be provided by the conference organisers. Note that equipment availability is limited and significant unusual technical requirements may restrict the possibility of acceptance of the work unless detailed plans are provided. • Locations that may be used for installations will be published on the conference website shortly. Submission will be by the easychair submission system (please visit the CC13 website). If there are a large number of attachments then please submit as a zipped folder with your surname, followed by the submission title as the folder name. If your files are larger than 100mb, please provide a link to the files on a storage service in your submission notes (eg. Dropbox etc.), rather than submitting huge files. *************************** CALL FOR WORKSHOP PROPOSALS *************************** We also invite WORKSHOP PROPOSALS to be presented on the day preceding the full conference (17th June 2013): Workshops offer an informal environment for attendees with common interests and diverse perspectives to engage in rich discussions around works in progress or new areas of research and practice. Workshops can relate to, but are not limited to, the topics of the conference (see the Call for Participation for an overview), and are a good opportunity to explore a specialised interest or interdisciplinary topic with greater time for in depth discourse, debate and collaboration. Admission to workshops and tutorials will be charged separately from the main conference. Submit 500-1,000 word PDF proposal addressing the following: • Clearly state the title, topic. • The anticipated audience and expected number of participants. • Proposed channels for promoting and marketing your workshop/proposal. • Name(s) of proposer(s)/submitter(s). • Indicate venue requirements and especially note any hardware/software requirements (computer lab, tools, workshop, software applications). Please indicate if there are any safety implications (eg. soldering) that may need health and safety compliance. • If you require any technical or specialist equipment, indicate clearly if you will be supplying/bringing it yourself or whether other arrangements need to be made. • Specify whether you would like a half-day or full-day time-slot • Include 1 paragraph bio & affiliation for each workshop organiser(s) and 2-paragraph background relating to proposed topic. Please use the SIG CHI Extended Abstract format: http://chi2012.acm.org/cfp-formatting-instructions.shtml Also note: • Workshop proposers should engage in the promotion of their event amongst own networks and on mailing lists. The workshop will also be publicised on the conference website. • We will give preference to workshops that focus on community building and communal knowledge creation rather than structured miniature paper presentation sessions • Workshop proposer(s) are responsible for organising the publication of any workshop proceedings if desired. • Workshops may be cancelled or combined if there is insufficient participation The deadline for submission of workshop proposals is January the 12th, 2013. Notifications will be sent by the 1st of February. Proposals should be submitted to the Workshops Chair through the easychair system, see the website for details. *************************** The Organising Committee, ACM Creativity and Cognition 2013 Email: cc13.conference(a)gmail.com

trying to adapt mu (max-unity) to PD - why does it fail?
by Scott R. Looney 22 Sep '12

22 Sep '12

hi Ivica and list, i'm trying to set up the DISIS Max to Unity (mu) communication over TCP/UDP in PD-extended and i can't get it to work. it should be really basic. i've tried it using udpsend/udpreceive and tcpsend/tcpreceive. both return a "Object Not Found" error when it tries to control the rotation on the Cube object. out of curiosity i checked the message being sent by Max and the one by PD and as far as i can tell they are totally identical - each one sends the message "send Cube r 0 1 0" but the one from Max sends the message correctly - the one from PD doesn't. both programs indicate that the connection has been established and i did not operate them both at the same time, as that would of course lead to conflicts. the only difference i've encountered so far is that the mu example uses netsend and netreceive objects. there are similar objects available for PD but they don't work with a high port number (over 32000). i can change the Unity Script to look for a lower port number but as if i remember netsend and netreceive did not function well in PD which is why everyone recommended Martin Peach's objects. anyway i can send examples if interested, but it's really a simple patch, and as far as i can tell the scripts in Unity are looking for any data coming over the port number - they shouldn't care about whether they are looking for data coming out of Max or PD specifically. i'm just talking about the simple rotation demo, not the more complex jitter texture control. if anyone's got a clue as to where to start looking let me know. thanks, scott
