screen size tcl

Hello, When I try to open the plugin~-help file from the Pd browser, the whole window is white and all objects in the file are invisible. This is the error message: (Tcl) UNHANDLED ERROR: bad screen distance "-75,000000" while executing "$tkcanvas create text $x $y -tags $tags -text $text -fill $color -anchor nw -font [get_font_for_size $font_size]" (procedure "pdtk_text_new" line 2) invoked from within "pdtk_text_new .xe88180.c {.xe88180.tf3b1d0 msg text} -75,000000 538,000000 {pddp} 10 black" ("uplevel" body line 4) invoked from within "uplevel #0 $docmds"(Tcl) UNHANDLED ERROR: bad screen distance "86,000000" Is this perhaps related to the screen resolution of my laptop? I'm using Pd 0.46.7 in Ubuntu Studio 16.04.1 on a Dell xps 15 9550 laptop Hans

Re: [PD] libPD4unity and reading sample arrays

You might get more traction by opening an issue on the libPD4unity Github repository and providing a test patch/patches which show the issue. It may be a problem with the unity wrapper or the underlying C# wrapper, but I would start with the Unity layer first. > On Mar 8, 2017, at 4:00 AM, pd-list-request(a)lists.iem.at wrote: > > From: "Scott R.

libPD4unity and reading sample arrays
by Scott R. Looney 07 Mar '17

07 Mar '17

hi pd folks - reaching out to the libpd oriented people on the list. i'm running into some issues using the latest libpd4unity version in Unity with a semi updated C# wrapper and libpdcsharp. the issue seems to be involving audio data arrays and [soundfiler]. mainly it looks like adding a read command creates some kind of error, and i think it's PD based. might be a bug, but not sure yet. the error happens in the attached patch in Unity using libpd4Unity with any local sound file. maybe the naming is off? regardless here's what prints: error: array: couldn't find template pd-_float_array error: #A: no such object error: sample: no such table if anyone on the list has an example of a patch using libpd4unity that loads samples to arrays correctly, i'm all ears. but as far as i can tell this should be some pretty basic stuff. i'm using the rjlib stuff for the most part and the synths all load since i dumped them all into one folder. but the sample player is being really stubborn. note that this is only when running libpd inside of Unity. running PD by itself i have no issues. any help appreciated! best, scott

[PD-announce] Call for participants - XTH Sense Biophysical Music Workshop 18-19 March - Berlin
by Marco Donnarumma 07 Mar '17

07 Mar '17

[excuse any x-post] In occasion of the exhibition Dark Bodies Dark Identities, curated by Alfredo Ciannameo, Spektrum Berlin presents a workshop by Marco Donnarumma on the XTH Sense, an award-winning biophysical musical instrument made completely in Pure Data. *When: 18-19 March 2017 (9am to 4:30pm) *Where: Spektrum, Bürknerstraße 12, 12047 Berlin *Cost: 100 euro + 20 euro materials *Registration and more info: http://spektrumberlin.de/events/detail/xth-sense-biophysical-music.html This weekend course offers hands-on experience and theoretical training in the performance of biophysical music and visuals with the XTH Sense. Biophysical music is an emerging form of live art based on a combination of physiological technology, markedly physical performance, and music computing. Workshop participants will build from scratch their own wearable bioacoustic sensors; learn how to analyze and map the data from their muscle and body movements to generate music and visuals; and experiment with live processing of the sounds from their own bodies. Attention will also be paid to aesthetic considerations when using the XTH Sense in artistic contexts. At the end of the workshop, participants will take home the XTH Sense they built, as well as the related software for their own continued creative use. *Topics covered in the workshop include: - Theoretical background on the state of art of gestural control of music - Introduction to the XTH Sense framework (technical overview, capabilities) - Building the boiacoustic sensor - An introduction to the open source artistic programming language PureData, tips and tricks - Explorations of bioacoustic sound design capabilities - Building audio modules and signal processing chains - Aesthetics of bioacoustic sensor-based performance - Mapping muscle energy to control Ableton, Renoise, Bitwig, video software - Designing an aesthetic vocabulary for body-sensor performance *About the instructor: Marco Donnarumma is an artist and scholar. He distinguishes himself by his use of emerging technology to deliver body performances that are at once intimate and powerful, oneiric and uncompromising, sensual and confrontational. Working with biotechnology, biophysical sensing, and more recently artificial intelligence and neurorobotics, Donnarumma expresses the chimerical nature of the body with a new and unsettling intensity. He has won several awards and performed in over 60 countries worldwide. His writings are published by MIT Press, Springer and Oxford University, among others. Currently, Donnarumma is a Research Fellow at Berlin University of the Arts in partnership with the Neurorobotics Research Laboratory at Beuth U. Berlin. -- Marco Donnarumma, Ph.D *Performing bodies, sound and machines**Universität der Künste Berlin* http://marcodonnarumma.com 4w33534643646 -- _______________________________________________ Pd-announce mailing list Pd-announce(a)lists.iem.at https://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-announce

Deken (maintenance) raw list of objects
by Lucas Cordiviola 06 Mar '17

06 Mar '17

Hi list, Here's an almost complete list of [objects] that are available on Deken. I searched for *-help.pd on my HDD backup from July 2016 when IOhannes & I did the w32 3th party dll “detect & include”. There are some objects missing e.g [cyclone/>~] and also some entries that are not [objects] but are abs, which anyhow is harmless extra info. The .txt file is very raw and is intended to, later, be correctly splitted to meet the standards of the “*-objects.txt” for each Deken pkg. Attached: Raw-externals-list-Deken.txt Last week there were discussions on the correct naming of extended libraries: https://lists.puredata.info/pipermail/pd-list/2017-03/118243.html So the correct naming for some of the *-object.txt is not yet clear. I will gladly follow IOhannes instructions on how to make this objectlists operational on Deken. This is not urgent and can wait. Salutti, Lucarda. Mensaje telepatico asistido por maquinas.

Pd-Vanilla & OSC Bundle
by Jérôme Abel 06 Mar '17

06 Mar '17

Hi list, I succeed in sending UDP messages to an ESP8266 (Wifi Module with Arduino IDE) with Pd-Vanilla [netsend -u]. But if I would like to send OSC messages, I have to use [ [, sendtyped /led i $1, ] < message with [packOSC] --- [udpsend]. The OSC library in Arduino receive "Bundle" messages so I wonder how to send this kind of messages in Pd-Vanilla and [oscformat]. Just to finish, thanks for developing the OSC communication inside PD-Vanilla. Here is an example in an artistic installation : https://vimeo.com/204155167 Best, -- Jérôme Abel http://jeromeabel.net http://reso-nance.org

PD L2Ork patch cables
by Pall Thayer 06 Mar '17

06 Mar '17

Hi all, I'm experimenting with L2Ork and one thing is confusing me. When I make a patch cable between one object and another, all seems fine and they are connected but a new patch cable continues to follow my mouse. Is it supposed to do this? If so, how do I get rid of the trailing patch cable if I'm not going to use it? Thanks, Pall -- P Thayer, Artist http://pallthayer.dyndns.org

comport - right outlet outputs only '-1'
by Roman Haefeli 06 Mar '17

06 Mar '17

Hey all I was about to create a Deken package of comport, but realized, there are some behaviors I don't understand. I do have some patches that indicate the right outlet of comport did once output some sensible messages, like 'open 1' when the connection is established and 'open 0' when the connection is closed. The help- file lists a whole bunch of messages that would reflect inner state changes of the external. I am currently not able to trigger any of those documented messages. May some of you can shed some light on this, I would really appreciate it: * I only get '-1' from right outlet whenever I close a connection or open a different port. It's not documented. What does it mean? * Even when I compile a version from 2006, I can't get the old behavior back and I still don't get any other message than '-1' on the right outlet. Why is that? * What is 'verbose $1' about? What are valid verbose levels? I was able to make [comport] print some info with increased verbosity levels. * Wouldn't it be good if there'd be some 'report' message that would trigger a dump of the current inner state, like 'xonxoff 0, stopbit 2, parity 0' etc. BTW: I'm using those sources: https://git.iem.at/pd/comport.git (make sure to add --recursive when cloning) Thanks, Roman

OT (the OT list seems quite quiet... so here it is again) 2 postdoc opportunities
by Pierre Alexandre Tremblay 06 Mar '17

06 Mar '17

Dear pd community I think these 2 posts could interest some of you. I'm not a very active member of this community, but I thought some of you might have come across the HISSTools Impulse Response Toolbox for Max. To make a long story short, my next project, entitled Fluid Corpus Manipulation, has successfully secured 5 years of ERC funding, which mean I am hiring 2 postdocs ! One is a DSP specialist with a strong interest in FFT-processes, the other is a practice-based researcher in creative coding, with a strong interest in dissemination. Research Fellow in Real-Time Computer Music Systems â€“ http://hud.ac/c5n7 Research Fellow in Creative Coding Practice in Music â€“ http://hud.ac/c5o8 There is a website in progress, it should be live in the next days, but all info is in the recruitment pack for each post above. Feel free to pass along! pa

Direct working links for recruitment packs: Research Fellow in Real-Time Computer Music Systems http://hr.hud.ac.uk/downloads/recruitmentpacks/R2814_Recruitment_Pack.pdf Research Fellow in Creative Coding Practice in Music; http://hr.hud.ac.uk/downloads/recruitmentpacks/R2815_Recruitment_Pack.pdf Love P.A., he rocks (as do the ships he steers [in a good way:). A micro-group of us failed to get a HISSTools Pd port up and running a few years ago, too complex at the time (for me anyhow). Rightly it's a very popular toolkit, esp. the convolution reverb. The original code (inc the convolution reverb) recently had a clean up of dependencies from what we heard last summer, though it isn't currently obvious to find on Alex Harker's git. Grrr, one that got away. Congrats people sounds great. Look forward to testing the new tools out, Julian On 5 March 2017 at 11:53, Pierre Alexandre Tremblay <tremblap(a)gmail.com> wrote: > Dear pd community > > I think these 2 posts could interest some of you.
