[Pdmtl] [PD-announce] [PD] thirty-fifth meeting of the PureData users group of Montr�al

Mer 19 Mai 16:29:14 EDT 2010

Hello there, english follows french for once

En direct depuis une formation donn�e � Dakar durant le festival Afropixel en compagnie de Jean-Noel Montagn�, � l 'attention de 20 artistes, techniciens et acteurs culturels s�n�galais maliens marocains et martiniquais, je vous confirme l'�norme trou � combler, en dehors des probl�mes �nerg�tiques, pour rendre Puredata accessible � des gens dont le fran�ais n'est souvent que la 2e ou 3e langue. N�anmoins, m�me si �a leur casse la t�te, ils adorent, et les mtl abstractions sont fort utiles pour faire avancer l'atelier.

We've been working for 7 days already in Dakar, Afropixel festival with 20 artists engineers and culture organizers from Marocco Mali Martinique and Senegal; they,re all deeply motivated by free software hardware and methods and obviously a not-localized doc is a brake amongst our group , French is mostly their 2nd or 3rd tongue.  

I'm looking forward to reading the results of last week meeting about translation, we missed  it mostly since  we long lost sense of time outside our yard,

A bientot inch allah, as the wolof people say

> >� � � � Aether9 is developing a mobility contingent for its performances during a
> > residency at Agence TOPO in Montr�al. The aether9 collective has developed its
> > own tool to stream remote performances from anywhere on the globe, which are
> > concatenated and manifested on a web page (in combination with a live
> > performance in front of an audience). This ability to stream audio/visual
> > remotely has thus far depended on Max/MSP. During the residence two aether9
> > members have been writing and learning in Pure Data to create a PD patch that
> > essentially captures webcam stream, manipulates the image and uploads it to a
> > server. We propose to present our fumbling, our successes and frustrations
> > with� making this patch as well as how the project aether9 works.

> >� � � � by Peter LEE

> >� � � � I will present preliminary work that uses GEM particle systems for data
> > visualization in two projects, one a (possibly) scientific application, and
> > the� other for a theater performance. The first feeds data from a genetic
> > study into� GEM to visualize multiple variables associating at once. The
> > second takes data� generated live from biofeedback sensors to visualize
> > physiologic signals of� emotion. Both projects make use of the same interface
> > for patching data to� visualization parameters. The challenge is to find the
> > mappings and scaling  factors that enhance the viewer’s ability to detect
> > differences in the data. I� shall be interested in hearing ideas from the
> > community on how to improve� real-time rendering of particle systems to create
> > images with greater nuance� and expressivity.
