Hi Chikashi,
Congratulations! I also really look forward this new Pd book. I hope that both of our Japanese Pd books (your dictionary type book and my introductory book for newbies published an year ago) and my Japanese Pd menu translation in the next Pd-extended make new Japanese Pd users spreading.
Best,
Sei

Dear Mailing List,
Hello. My name is. Chikashi Miyama, a Japanese composer, living in
Germany.
I have just finished writing a book about Pure Data in Japanese. The
book
will be relased on Feb. 4 .2013. This is the third book about Pd in Japanese and probably the biggest
book
(463 pages)!! ( if you do not Interpret "Designing Sound" as a book
about Pd
; )
The main target of the book is musicians and artists who want to use
Pd for
their artistic creations. The first part of the book includes 15 step-by-step tutorials. Through
these
tutorials, the readers can learn how to program metronome, synthesizer, sampler, granular sampler, drum machine, various time-domain and frequency-domain effects, presets, data structure and so on.. The second part introduces 6 advanced ways to use Pd employing external software and devices, such as Arduino, iPhone, Logic... It also
explains how
to use GEM, how to connect multiple Pds over the network, and how to
program
your own objects in C language with XCode. The third part is the object dictionary, covering almost all Pd-vanilla objects with simple example patches Furthermore, the book includes interviews with three active artists
using Pd
for their projects.
You can pre-order the book now on amazon Japan the price is 4,725 JPY.

The TOC and 12 sample pages are available on the website of the
publisher.
