hey, just read that olpc ("XO") will include csound. what about a light version of pd? marius.
OLP*C* - for a child there is no doubt, Pd is vastly easier to understand and use than Csound.

Well, they only have 512M of 'disk' (actually flash) so they're only doing each thing one particular way... so Pd won't be part of it, since csound is the official music package. There's a whole GUI superstructure they're defining from scratch, targetted specifically for school-age children.

I think the latest model has a 1GB flashcard. and the OS will take about 100MB. Do you say that they build a children targetted GUI for Csound? I really think Pd would be the better choice, (you also can teach 3d drawing with GEM). anyway, a dedicated OX Pd would be nice to have. marius.

Actually, Pd works "out of the box" on OX, I tried it last summer :) So folks can always download it.

Interesting that they chose Csound. I thought they may have chosen this:

Barry Vercoe, the creator of Csound, works at the MIT Media Lab, so I
think that played a big part of why Csound was chosen.

I had a play with one of the OLPC machines at GUADEC this year, and Csound is well buried beneath a polished GUI. I presume they chose it because of the all the built-in and instantly usable opcodes/ugens.

The OLPC music app I saw was this little sequencer. I was appalled
to see that it was really heavy on the western music system, with
seemingly little option for anything else. So much for the laptop
for the world... or hopefully I am wrong.

If you are not part of the solution, you are part of the problem.

Contrast this with bars that play both kinds of music: country and western. Certainly, if I had to listen to western all day, I'd grow tired.
