I agree on a need for a common project. I have been hibernating/musing this winter with a full load of classes and a newborn and have some stored up inspiration that needs to be directed. I will be starting a new quarter of school in 3 weeks (meaning that now I'm going through finals) and will be starting an art project that will incorporate a homemade USB MIDI drum trigger "brain" and PureData. It's going to an all-wood exterior piece with wood blocks as drum triggers (played marimba style) that can play in 5TET 7TET and 12TET --- ideas being loosely drawn from gamelan ensemble music.
Maybe we can get together and talk about what we are doing and what project(s) we could be working on and just the general goal/direction of this little group in a chat environment soon, eh? Considering it's still only 3 of us we should be able to work out a time to meet and discuss. I don't know about you guys but e-mails are too hard for me to dismiss, put off, and forget... so possibly some real-time chat could be of use in pointing us somewhere. For now, Tyler PS - Here is the USB MIDI brain I'm talking about http://www.ise.pw.edu.pl/~wzab/MIDI/perkusja/index.html On Tue, Mar 8, 2011 at 4:25 PM, geoffroy tremblay <[email protected]> wrote: > could be interesting - I have been working here with a secondary > school on puredyne and processing - I could offer remote help. > > I realized puredyne americas is a bit slow at this point probably > because of the lack of common project - it would be great to have > something central that would benefit/motivate all of us to participate > > > > > On Tue, Mar 1, 2011 at 5:51 PM, grant centauri <[email protected]> > wrote: > > Things have stalled a bit on the wiki.
