Free software art on Kuro5hin.org
Excerpt from article:
<< My final example is Pure Data. Unlike the previous two examples, Pure
Data is not a textual language, but it is just as open ended. In Pure Data
you create 'patches' rather than programs, by connecting together boxes,
each of which carries out an operation on the data that passes through it.
The result is a graph through which data flows. The final destination is
most often an audio output, however Pure Data is also increasingly popular
among visual artists and VJs, using libraries such as GEM and pdp to
create live visuals. Although Pure Data doesn't require you to learn a
programming language as such, the operations it allows are very low level.
Luckily the examples are excellent, but to fully understand and go beyond
them you'll need to pick up some understanding of sound synthesis or
visual models. >>

I'll add it to the "articles" collection on puredata.org when I get a
chance.

Well, I feel a bit embarrassed now, as it was only after I posted the article here that I noticed that the public's reaction on kuro5hin was very sub-par compared to most articles I've read on it, and also the beginning of the article (2nd para) was rather sensationalistic. Well, at least, it's a mention on a rather large-volume site and that's encouraging (?).

hello, me again, happy?
i think the reactions on this site are sooooo stupid that we don't even need to mention them : quote : "Software can never become art, unless it is created by just one person, just for the heck of it, and is sold only after he dies. "
and egocentric things of that kind.
i don't think alex wrote anything sensasionnalistic here, just plain truths of software production and use.
but, "artists", those who think they are just got offended.
well, old story, boring people.
ciao, sevy
