For those of you in or around Paris:
Tuesday 2nd of December 2008, 15H00, IRCAM, Salle Stravinsky
A seminar by
Thomas GRILL, Media artist
on
"flext: C++ programming layer for cross-platform development of Max/ MSP and PD externals"
(in English)
For directions: http://www.ircam.fr/5.html
Abstract:
Flext seeks to represent a uniform programming interface for
extending the most common modular real-time audio systems Max/MSP and
Pure Data (PD) with external modules, or short externals. These
modules provide a way to tailor such a system for one’s special needs
and supply additional functionality. Source code based on Flext is
able to exploit nearly all features of the respective real-time
framework while staying completely independent of the actual host
system and platform (hardware and operating system). flext currently
supports PD for Linux, Windows and OSX as well as Max/MSP for OS9 and
OSX and Windows, and other systems can follow in the near future.
In this seminar, we look at the current status, possibilities and
limitations of Flext, a review of some famour objects developed using
flext, as well as hearing your exotic wishes.
