still annoying gem.conf
by Peter P. 05 Nov '17

05 Nov '17

Hi list, Perhap there is by now a way to get rid of the annoying error message at pd startup saying open: /etc/pd/gem.conf: No such file or directory open: /home/peter/.pd/gem.conf: No such file or directory open: ./gem.conf: No such file or directory ? Even if I create an empty file /etc/pd/gem.conf the two other messages are still displayed. I wonder what the use of this is, should I keep three identical files or symlinks distributed all over the system only to have Gem load with less noise? This has been discussed in 2009 here https://lists.puredata.info/pipermail/pd-list/2009-12/074830.html but it is 2018 soon. Perhaps the point of views have a chance to be changed? It would be terrific! best,P P

help with tcl/tk errors
by Alexandre Torres Porres 05 Nov '17

05 Nov '17

Hi list, Flávio Schiavoni is collaborating with me with a new GUI [keyboard] object. He did a nice work (we're only dealing with some bugs before putting it out). But he did it in the old tcl/tk so this still works in Pd 0.42-5 but not in Vanilla 0.48. Could anybody out there help us figure out the new errors we're getting because of the newer vanilla tcl/tk codes? Here's a more proper bug report - https://github.com/porres/pd-keyboard/issues/3 thanks

[PD-announce] PIKSEL17 -- We Take EmoCoin! workshops announcement.
by 220hex 04 Nov '17

04 Nov '17

Dear Piksel friends, here is the PIKSEL17 -- We Take EmoCoin! workshops announcement. Please feel free to spread the word to your friends. Have a nice day! Piksel Team. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- PIKSEL17 We Take EmoCoin! The 15th annual Piksel Festival for Electronic Art and Free Technologies - Wokshops - November 13st-16th, Bergen (NO) - http://17.piksel.no The 15th edition of the Piksel Festival takes place in Bergen (NO) November 16th- 18th 2017. We Take EmoCoin! The Piksel17 festival slogan points out to the new capital: our emotions. The interest of the human beings can be captured through emotions, and therefore can be monetized. Emotions has become the new coin. Emotions can be measured, monitorized and monetized in almost real time. Together with our use of social networks, technology is also investing in bio-sensing the body, using small components and microcontrollers we can collect our bio-data. So, we ourselves with our public online behaviour and our stored bio-signals, visualized and interfaced, create a direct link between emotions and money. PIKSEL17 – We Take EmoCoin! ----------------------------------------------------------- Workshops Programme: All workshops are free to attend. To sign up send an email to:prod(at)piksel(dot)no BioSIGNAL Sensing Workshop by Cristian Delgado 16th Nov Building: Piksel Studio 207 Date: 14:00-18:00 http://17.piksel.no/?p=72 In this workshop the participants are going to use small components and microcontrolers to make biosignal sensors, to record pulse, muscle and cardiac activity to conect it to instruments and visuals, working with the sense plants response, electromiography and oxygen in blood to control both visuals and audio software with body signals and interaction between bodies. The result is a colective exhibition made by the participants and the invited artist. Bergen PD Meeting 16th Nov Building: Piksel Studio 207 Date: 14:00-16:00 http://17.piksel.no/?p=72 PureData is an open source visual programming language for music and multimedia creation, oftenly used by composers, performers, software designers, researchers and artists to create performances and installations. This first PD meeting will try to gather the Bergen PD community around regular meetings in order to discuss and learn about PD, what it is, how do we see or use it, but also a place to discuss about electronic music and open-source culture. The meeting is run by artist and composer Arthur Hureau with the support of Piksel. From E-waste to Sound Device by Toni Quiroga 17h Nov Building: Piksel Studio 207 Date: 11:00-18:00 http://17.piksel.no/?p=230 During this workshop you will learn how to turn parts of e-waste and trash into functional primitive sound devices. Through the vivisection of dead media devices you will learn how to extract valuable components (like motors, VU meters, integrated circuits, transistors and other raw materials) and reuse them in order to build a primitive and idiosyncratic instrument. We will build fully recycled electronic gadgets powered through alternative and ecologically sustainable methods integrating our own body residuals into the process (if you want to). The idea is to get a better understanding of new media through the excavation of the old and obsolete by highlighting the nonlinear history within those devices. The Praxis LIVE - Hybrid Visual IDE for Live Creative Coding by Neil C. Smith 17h Nov Building: Piksel Studio 207 Date: 14:00-17:00 http://17.piksel.no/?p=69 Praxis LIVE is an innovative and powerful new way to work with OpenJDK and tools like Processing. It is a way to create projections, interactive spaces, custom AV instruments, or live-coding performances. The workshop will introduce basic project building and patching with Praxis LIVE. The participants will be able to continue to experiment with visual patching, or learn how to "drop down" to the built-in code editor and live recode components using Processing / Java or OpenGL. They will be able to explore Praxis LIVE's support for physical computing, including prebuilt integration with TinkerForge open hardware, or GPIO on the Raspberry Pi. www.praxislive.org |www.neilcsmith.net A Recipe for Destruction: Secure Hardware Data Erasure by Nikita Mazurov 18h Nov Building: Piksel Studio 207 Date: 11:00-13:00 http://17.piksel.no/?p=227 This workshop propose the question that how securely delete data nowdays has become an important thing. Exists a huge number of software solutions which advocate wholesale drive encryption, but software solutions are woefully inadequate for the task. So this piece propose a demonstration of a pragmatic hardware solution: secure device destruction via open source recipes. Will demonstrate and walk attendees through creating homemade recipes to securely get rid of their devices, whether tablets, laptops, phones, or even desktops. The ultimate goal of this non-traditional workshop is to illustrate that for our digital data to truly become 'renewable' it must be liberated from the prison of the physical form, exorcised from the demon of the hard drive. Sonified Textiles by Paola Torres Nuñez del Prado 18h Nov Building: Piksel Studio 207 Date: 14:00-18:00 http://17.piksel.no/?p=78 The Shipibo-Konibo, from the Peruvian rainforest, openly link their traditional singing (Ikaros) to the designs they draw on vessels and their bodies, and the textiles they use as decoration and clothing. They consider that their designs can be sung. The workshop includes an introduction to various sonification methods, ranging from databending to code, using different open-source softwares (Audacity, Gimp, Hex editor) and programming platforms for mapping sounds on visual data (images and video). An explanation on how glitch is related to the designs behind the artworks from Paracas Culture from Perú, the Chincheros Textile Masters from Cusco, and the Shipibo-Konibo. Biotransmissions by Colectivo Electrobiota 18h Nov Building: Piksel Studio 207 Date: 14:00-18:00 http://17.piksel.no/?p=72 An experiment with electronics and biology seeking to explore different forms of interspecies communication and relationship with nature. Introduction to biointeractivity and electronics to build our own biosensor that will allow us to make latent the potential voices of the different forms of life that inhabit the rhizosphere. Vector Synthesis by Derek Holzer November 27 – November 29 Date: 14:00-20:00 http://17.piksel.no/?p=81 VECTOR SYNTHESIS is an audiovisual, computational art project using sound synthesis and vector graphics display techniques to investigate the direct relationship between sound+image. It draws on the historical work of artists such as Mary Ellen Bute, John Whitney, Nam June Paik, Ben Laposky, and Steina & Woody Vasulka among many others, as well as on ideas of media archaeology and the creative re-use of obsolete technologies. Audio waveforms control the vertical and horizontal movements as well as the brightness of a single beam of light, tracing shapes, points and curves with a direct relationship between sound and image. http://macumbista.net/?page_id=5000 _______________________________________________ Pd-announce mailing list Pd-announce(a)lists.iem.at https://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-announce

Re: [PD] GUI freeze
by Johnny Mauser 01 Nov '17

01 Nov '17

I have the same behaviour in Ubuntu 16.04 and pd 0.46 The only workarround i found was to construct the gui in another instance. Am 22.09.2017 3:14 nachm. schrieb "Roman Haefeli" <reduzent(a)gmail.com>: Hey all Apologies for a somewhat vague bug report about a hard to reproduce issues (yeah, everybody loves those). I tend to create instruments for netpd with lots of visual feeback (song position in sequencer, triggered notes, automated values, meters). Sometimes during sessions with rather many instruments, it happens what I (only half-correctly) call a GUI freeze. Sliders, number atoms, symbol atoms, radios etc. stop visually reflecting any change. They still do send new values through their outlet, but are not updated visually, neither when manually changed or when sending new values through inlet or send symbol. When it happens, it affects all GUI widgets of all patches the running Pd instance. It usually happens after an error is printed to the Pd console: (Tcl) INVALID COMMAND NAME: invalid command name ".x88d5c68.c" while executing ".x88d5c68.c delete curve8cc3d94" ("uplevel" body line 23) invoked from within "uplevel #0 $docmds" Interestingly, when I minimize a canvas and unminimize (or switch desktop away and back) it again, it all widgets display the current values, though live changes are still not updated. Also not all properties of the GUI widgets are affected. Label texts, label fonts, background, foreground and label colors, also cnv dimensions and similar things are still updated. Or in other words: Those aspects that work both ways (GUI -> pd and pd -> GUI) are affected, while the supplemental features of the widgets that can't be controlled by mouse (pd -> GUI only) are not affected. The situation persists until I restart Pd. That's again a vague statement, but I have the impression it got slightly worse when switching from 0.47 to 0.48. I'm not able to create a simple patch that triggers the GUI freeze. However, I have saved sessions that run reliably into this within minutes. Thanks for any thoughts on this.
