Re: [PD] documentation material for Pd related grants, funds, and prizes
Yep, I would be happy to help out with this - Greg I was hoping you would bring the camera anyway. The two of us will be in touch about this, but if you (the list) can think of people to track down we might be able to find them and set up times. With the convention coming up in just a few days, we would really need help with getting some sort of outline. Both of us have only been using Pd for just over a year, so those of you who have been using and developing in the last few years could be a great help here. We need to decide on some core topics to ask about - what do you guys and gals think needs to be covered in this brief documentary? I have some ideas but I would rather pose the question to the community at this point. I think it is well within our means to produce a short overview of some important aspects of Pd, or at the very least to have footage and material available when someone seeking resources needs it.

I was thinking of funds or prizes like the ars electronica festival. I am still not sure if Pd will fit in one of the categories, but I know that you have to send a DVD about the project/community. maybe the pdconv would be a good place for some interviews and shoot good footage. one principle question for me with submissions is, if someone should be in charge of the pd community? like an official speaker, or a table of people. honestly I think no, but without that it will be more difficult to access some of the money. (does pd development need money at all???...) the more tanglible question is, if there is someone who wants to help getting this done, filming, interviewing, cutting, writing, research. marius. ___ PD-list@iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management - http://lists.puredata.info/ listinfo/pd-list ___ PD-list@iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management - http://lists.puredata.info/ listinfo/pd-list All mankind is of one author, and is one volume; when one man dies, one chapter is not torn out of the book, but translated into a better language; and every chapter must be so translated -John Donne ___ PD-list@iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management - http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list -- http://pocketkm.blogspot.com ___ PD-list@iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management - http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list

Since I reimplemented the stack overflow checker so that it really checks every sent message, it's now easier to make a profiler. Actually, I just made one tonight, when reading your email. It looks like this: http://artengine.ca/desiredata/gallery/simple-benchmark.png those green numbers represent real time, measured hierarchically (that is, all sent messages count as part of the sender), whereas it could have excluded sent messages so that all visible times add up (either is more useful than the other sometimes). It is an exhaustive measurement, that is, every message is counted, whereas it could be statistical instead, using unix alarms to make statistics on stack snapshots. You make the green numbers appear by selecting get elapsed from the View menu. This example was made from making a few clicks on the messagebox and it is measured such that 1 unit = 8 cpu ticks. in practice my cpu switched to a higher speed. Correct profiling involves setting the speed of the cpu to a fixed value so that the values can be displayed in actual seconds. If you want to try it out we could meet online and set it up on your computer. _ _ __ ___ _ _ _ ... | Mathieu Bouchard - tél:+1.514.383.3801, Montréal QC Canada___ PD-list@iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management - http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list

Re: [PD] strange canvas behaviour
2007/8/17, Mathieu Bouchard [EMAIL PROTECTED]: I wrote about this today already. This is because $ is rewritten as # instead of being rewritten as \$ as it should. The # way involves extra code that is both causing your problem and is unnecessary because \$ already gets converted to $ automatically. It should be reported as a bug? a bug according to whom? it was deliberately designed and written like that. It is a bug. If you send a label something# to a canvas, there's no *good* reason why it *should* generate a something$ label. It was *implemented* like that (no matter how deliberately), and that's the cause of this bug. Indeed I think that PD lacks a clean and simple escaping mechanim with which such problems would be avoided. -- Email.it, the professional e-mail, gratis per te: http://www.email.it/f Sponsor: Prestiti: con Prometeo fino a 30.000 Euro, senza spese e senza attese!

[PD] audio drop-outs when resizing tables??
Hi, I am getting dsp drop-outs when I resize a table (say a size of 20 or so) if a tabread~ object exists reading from that table, even if I am not listening to the output of the tabread~. Even if the tabread~ is in a switch~ed off subpatch/abstraction. Does PD recompute the whole DSP chain whenever a table (with one or more tabread~ reading from it) is resized? I'm talking about resizing tables by sending them a [resize( message. I tried to isolate it in a simple patch but I couldn't reproduce it. But I think the only difference with the patch where I am experiencing this is the complexity of the global dsp graph, that's why I ask if the dsp graph is recomputed. -- Email.it, the professional e-mail, gratis per te: http://www.email.it/f Sponsor: 250 biglietti da visita Gratis + 42 modelli e Etichette per Indirizzo Gratis + Porta biglietti Gratis -Offerta limitata!

you can use a message and stat with semicolon followed by the location you want to send to: [;receiver1 123( or with variables: [receiver1 123( | [;$1 $2( that will send 123 to receiver1. marius.
