Ha, I got a different reply earlier:
"We decied to avoid the use of Pd and SuperCollider for internal and technical resons and unfortunately we cannot change our policy. So please, if you are interested in the call, please send a more pertinent question."
I wonder what software would be good for quickly prototyping a solution to whatever technical problem prevents the use of Pd and Supercollider in a realtime DSP performance...
lack of tech support phone numbers?
Maybe they think they won't be able to set up the patches for their review process and so opted only to accept patches for performances they think they are confidently able to. Otherwise, the technical issues are between their ears--or in IT support speak, between the chair and keyboard (BTCK).
I think they (and the panel) simply have no clue on how to use Pd or Supercollider. While I understand that I think it's no excuse, at least for Pd they could ask people to send "self-contained" patches with instructions, I mean the patch could be very complicated but have just a big bang a big toggle and some markers/counters for the performers.
That said -- I notice that on the previously sent link the http://usoproject.blogspot.com/2011/12/call-for-works-sonic-screens-2012.htm... mention to Pd and/or Supercollider seems to have been removed.
