Do you have any example for what exactly you want to do? I've never heard of this "fluke" thing and searching the web for that term yielded no useable results as fluke is a common word.
fluke should be the translation for the german word "zufall". maybe coincidence is the better word for this.
Ah! And I thought "fluke" was the name of a PHP library ...
i want to generate surfaces, tables, boxes, geometrical forms in strobo speed style. this objects be generated through coincidence algorythms. so for example i have 4 boxes which change the color and the size every frame per coincidence.
Gem can generate graphics at the usual 20/25 fps, which already is
much faster than a club stroboscope - and it's much faster than loading websites, too.
i will check Gem, sounds that this is what i need.
I won't ask now what "strobo speed style" is though I don't know what it is. ;)
Anyway Gem is a OpenGL graphics system for Pd. You can generate colored boxes with Gem easily, using the programming/patching approach as for audio or message programming in Pd. Gem is something completely different from Python in this context: With Python in Pd you write new Pd objects in Python, while Gem is a collection of special purpose objects.
