Thanks so much. I am on ubuntu64 so I will install it. It does not interfere
with Vanilla does it?
Exactly. The two can now happily coexist next to each other. Just make
sure not to mix and match externals compiled for one with the other
(even though the jury is still out whether pd-l2ork can handle vanilla
externals without crashing, something I suspect is likely but not
proven). Either way, this should not be necessary since pd-l2ork ships
with many (most?) externals included.
Also, I was chatting with our newest Research dean at the college of fine arts
student meet and greet and your name came up. Tony Kolenic😎
Very cool! Well, that explains why my ears were burning earlier today
;-) Kidding aside, Tony is a really cool guy. Please tell him I said hi.
Best,
Ico

About Pd-L2Ork
Pd-L2Ork is a fork of the ubiquitous Pure-Data focusing on improved user
interface, expanded collection of externals, and an advanced SVG-enabled
graphical front-end. Originally it was introduced as the core infrastructure
for the Linux Laptop Orchestra (L2Ork http://l2ork.icat.vt.edu), and has since
expanded to include K-12 learning module with a unique learning environment
offering adaptable granularity that has been utilized in over dozen maker
workshops and initiatives, including the Raspberry Pi Orchestra program for
middle school children introduced in the summer 2014. Today, pd-l2ork is being
developed by a growing number of international collaborators and contributors.
