Heya - I just made a PD tutorial for beginners and I was wondering if anyone wanted to do a sanity check...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FkmMzqohsDo
In any case - I'm thinking about doing a series... Any ideas for topics / projects that would be good for beginners?
This is great! I definitely like to see this kind of thing. What I
have been thinking about is making a "Start Here" menu item in the
Help menu. The idea is for people who have never used Pd or anything
like it, they would look at the Start Here page to see things like
example patches, help videos like this one, text descriptions, etc.
The Start Here page should be short and sweet, but that's the basic
idea. I think it could just be a Pd patch opened by the help menu item.

Do you all think using pdpedia to link to examples like this would be a misuse?
Perhaps it would be a site project, but more like a tutorial wiki with links to various tutorials in different forms (video and otherwise).
I suppose that could just live on puredata.info as a main page.
Anyhow the idea of where is not important, but a structure in which all these tutorials could be situated, based on keywords and such.
Is anyone making a multi-video cohesive tutorial set?
Just thinking aloud.

There is already http://puredata.info/docs/tutorials
The more people add to it the better it will be. I think it has
potential especially for its free form -- ie. links to third party
sites with various content form (video/pdf/html/tar of interactive
tutorials etc). The categorizing could use some work though,
especially when/if more content is added.
Something that would be useful along these lines is a place with links to works done with PD. Is there a place for this already? I'll be teaching PD soon and it would be great to direct students to some online documentation. Thanks. Jim

Considering how each language sections are already quite independent, I feel this is valid.
At least in my language, as far as I know of, there is no portal site on Pd that is currently active. If even just the front page of pdpedia in my language could provide info as you suggest, I feel that the connvenience of new comers will overcome the barreness of having resources spread and over lapping with 'puredata.info'.
Not that I know of anything to post soon... but I would like to note that you aren't the only one who's thought of it.

my first thought:
cmd-D instead of copy paste.

My only thought was a bit more of an explanation as to what PD is,
what it can do, where to get it, and how to install it.
