Well the Raspberry Pi is based on an ARM chip. Does anyone know how these chips compare when running RJDJ or libPD applications?
Perhaps this is a possibility, without too much modification of libPD or even RJDJ.
...but someone would need to write a host for the Raspberry Pi.
Even if it was just the PD core, it would enhance the educational scope of the Raspberry Pi - which is the whole point of this single-board computer (I learned my first programming on a Sinclair ZX Spectrum in the 1980s).
I never thought I would see the day when the BBC Microcomputer would rule the world in telecommunications, but ARM chips and the ARM RISC instruction set are running every smartphone on the planet right now (correct me if I'm wrong :) and some of these smartphones run RJDJ and libPD really well.
Dataflow music programming in schools. Maybe...

On the RaspberryPi website the question about the absence of audio-input
was answered recently:
There are no inbuilt Audio ADC’s so there would be a cost adder – everyone
was sat on my head to get costs down. They can be easily added via the GPIO.
So, still a possibility in an embedded openstomp-ish device.

Hi List,
I'm moving to Belgium and I have a Korg MS 20 in working condition that I
might want to sell sometime soon.
Anybody interested in the area?
Cheers,
Pierre.

Dear All,
The Logos Foundation has formed a focal point for experimental
Belgian and international artists since 1968, showcasing contemporary
music and sound art.
Our workshops provide space for in-house artists and guests to build
innovative instruments and develop new technologies. Logos has its
own orchestra, Man & Machine, which consists of more than 50
interactive musical robots and is absolutely unique in the world.
Along with numerous other arts organisations, the Logos Foundation
found out on Friday evening that it will lose its government subsidy
from 2013 onwards. It is expected to continue with an annual
allowance of 0 euros, despite receiving two positive recommendations
from the official evaluation committee. In other words, although both
its artistic plan and its business plan were judged feasible and
worthwhile, it was not allocated a subsidy.
Help to save Logos! Convince the Minister of Culture to still
subsidise our Foundation! Please follow the link below and sign the
petition and please spread this petition amongst your friends, so the
Minister of Culture can see the national and international support
for the Logos Foundation. Thank you!
