Hello from real world,
As several of you might already know, now it is official. Check this out:
A fully functional Pd just hit the iphone appstore, and you can create Pd patches with the system and run them on the iPhone.
I really appreciate that some of you, developpers, like to invent PD devs for such mobile devices. Great developpements. Big fun. But you spend a lot of time for those games for rich, for an elite. In many countries, just the price of an Iphone and accessories is enough to feed one starving family FOR A YEAR ! [For the first time ever, this year, this evening, about 850 million humans will go to bed hungry, like yesterday, and may be tomorrow]. When some of our best PD brains are working (with FLOSS) for few riches only, it is a mystery for me.
BUT some PD-developpements for handheld devices have been done to run PD on small CPUs: has someone succeeded in installing PD on an OLPC XO ? I have no competency to do it, but if some people in france want to try, we have some XO available in the hackerspace tmp/lab in Vitry. Contact OLPC-france.
