Apologies for x-posting...
It's been a busy summer--pd-l2ork
<http://l2ork.music.vt.edu/main/?page_id=56>has been making big strides
towards becoming a robust full-fledged digital signal processing tool.
The latest version includes revolutionary preset_hub and preset_node
system that supports a wide range of data types as well as abstractions.
It is essentially Pd's counterpart toMax's pattrstorage
<http://cycling74.com/docs/max5/refpages/max-ref/pattrstorage.html>.
We've also squashed dozens of bugs and clean-ups making pd-l2ork better
than ever.
Perhaps the most exciting improvement involves Pd-L2Ork'sK12 module
<http://l2ork.music.vt.edu/main/?p=1964>geared towards elementary,
middle, and high school students. The new version has over 40
objects/abstractions, allowing students to seamlessly interact with both
Wiimotes andSARC iteration of Arduino Uno devices (a.k.a. Sarcduino
firmware) <http://www.musicsensorsemotion.com/2010/03/08/sarcduino/>.
And this very version together with 15 L2Ork stations is being used this
week by more than 30 middle-school students as part of the inauguralICAT
K12 Maker Workshop <http://www.icat.vt.edu/> taking place in Virginia
Tech Institute for Creativity, Arts & Technology's Studio 1. So, head on
over to the L2Ork's software page
<http://l2ork.music.vt.edu/main/?page_id=56>and check out what the
latest version of pd-l2ork is all about ;-)
Best wishes,
