la trente-cinquième rencontre du club d'utilisateurs de PureData de Montréal 
aura lieu à Vidéographe Production, 4550, rue Garnier (coin Mont-Royal) le 
samedi 22 mai 2010, de 13h00 à 17h00.

au programme :

1. la patch du projet Aether9
    presentée par Christiaan CRUZ et Audrey SAMSON

    Aether9 is developing a mobility contingent for its performances during a 
residency at Agence TOPO in Montréal. 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.

2. Gem for data visualization
    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.

3. Démonstration à choisir
    par Mathieu BOUCHARD

    Je vais donner une liste de mes nouvelles patchs de son, de vidéo,
    etc., et l'auditoire choisira parmi ces suggestions. J'improviserai
    alors deux courtes présentations.

     * prototype de jeu de Q*Bert.
     * prototype de jeu de Tic Tac Toe.
     * déformation temporelle des pixels sur un flux vidéo.
     * synthèse de cloches et de cordes sans oscillateur.
     * synthèse fait d'un filtre à pôle complexe et d'un gros rien.

4. Traduction
    (discussion de groupe)

    Ce sera une discussion informelle pour savoir qui est intéressé à
    participer à des efforts de traduction de la documentation de PureData.
    Nous parlerons de différentes sources de documentation et de diverses
    approches de traduction.

    Cette discussion a été proposée par Thomas-O. FREDERICKS, lequel sera
    absent ce samedi. Nous poursuivrons cette discussion lors d'une
    rencontre ultérieure.

5. temps libre
    (jusqu'à 17h00)
