That's awesome Pierre!
Charles (Henry) was working on GPU related computation with Pd.
Some pretty cool stuff. It would be relevant to see how his work developed so far, and whether it might be useful in this context.
On a side note, I'm taking a studio session with CCRMA folks at the upcoming TEI conference in Barcelona.
We will be working with their Satellite kit, which is based on RPI [1].
My goal is to run the Xth Sense [2] biosensor and software directly on the RPI.
And after seeing your work, I'm quite confident this is feasible, as the XS is also based on real time audio input.
I'll keep you updated, meanwhile thanks for opening up this perspective Pd/RPI collab!

Dear all,
Please read below the message I received from Eben Upton, the boss of
Raspberry Pi foundation.
It looks like he was impressed by the video I made, and he says that
there's a possibility of letting the GPU do some DSP computation.
I guess you'll all agree that this is awesome news.
I have no idea how we can proceed now. I think i'm absolutely incapable of
doing anything useful in this field, so i told him that i would transfer
this message to you, hoping that Miller, HC, Katja (and others) would know
what needs to be done. We should probably ask him if you guys could work
directly with their developers.
Let me know what you think.
Cheers!
Pierre.

Hi Pierre
Awesome stuff - I think Liz is preparing a blog post about this as we
speak. I'd be very interested in knowing a bit more about the DSP code
that runs this stuff. We have a bunch of GPU compute available on the
device just waiting for an application like this.
Cheers
Eben
