 afair, only on OSX, QuickTime is used for image reading.
 on w32 you have libjpeg and libtiff support.
 on linux you have ImageMagick.

 the reason why quicktime is not (optionally) used on w32 is beyond my
 knowledge; i guess it is just a matter of getting the preprocessor
 defines right (from __APPLE__ to HAVE_QUICKTIME); most likely it is like
 it is for legacy reasons.

 Linux is more complicated, based on the libs it's compiled against. I'll
 get Hans to send the compiler flags in a sec...

 on linux we check for ImageMagick, and if this is not present libjpeg
 and libtiff.
 ImageMagick will open pretty much any image format.

i guess that if someone (not completely naive; and with an eye on

wheel, they would make lists just lists. without any special selector 
(just the first element of the list).


as things stand, you have to either accept things how they are or look 
for an alternative.
changing the way list works will be destructive to all but the most 
trivial patches out there.

 please note that reading data from movie/films and reading data from
 still-images is handled differently in Gem.
 that is: the ability to read avi's has no relationship to the ability to
 read tiffs. moreover, the ability to read jpeg-images has nothing todo
 with the ability to open a quicktime with a mjpa stream.

 on some platforms it might be possible to open an image with
 [pix_film]/[pix_movie] and vice-versa.
 this is a side-effect of the underlying APIs and i currently do not

[PD] (Ask) Master Degree in New Media Arts

2009-04-07 Thread Adityo Pratomo
Hi there everyone.

I want to ask, can anybody give me information about universities that give
a master degree in new media arts, probably those that similar with MIT
Media Lab. I've just graduated with a bachelor degree in electrical
engineering, and in my final assignment, I create some kind of installation
using Arduino and Pd. After that, I feel very eager to continue studying
about this new media art field. So can anybody tell me where should i go?
Any information will be appreciated.

Thank you very much everybody!

[PD] compiling question

2009-04-07 Thread Oded Ben-Tal

This is a rather silly question but I'm stumped.
I'm trying to compile pd-vanilla but am stuck at step one:
./configure --prefix /home/oded/pdvanilla
I get error ./configure no such file
I'm in the pd/src directory (which should be the correct one). I'm running 
linux FC10 (ccrma). There is a configure.in file but no .configure file.
I downloaded the code from svn last week (pd-extended. I'm trying to 
compile vanilla first before I decide if I want to try further).


I know there is something basic I'm missing.

Hi Marco,

This has been normal behavior as long as I have been aware of it. That 
doesn't mean that it's not a bug, however ;-)


If you want looping + scrubbing, a better way would be to build a 
counter with a [mod] object set to the total number of frames in your 
clip, that way you could change the payback speed of the clip and (with 
some adjustments to the counter) skip around in the frames as well as go 
backwards, etc etc. (Nice topic for a FLOSS Manuals tutorial, eh Marius?)

Thanks for the response. However, I am still struggling with this. I 
probably need a much more basic explanation. Sorry.


I assume that the patches you've provided (greatly appreciated) 
collate the data in someway in order for me to be able to unpack it? 
However, I'm not sure that I even understand exactly how 'unpack' and 
'route' work, which is obviously a problem!


If anyone can provide a more simplified explanation I would really 
appreciate it. I'm not that familiar with programming, so layman's 
terms are all I can manage!

 Hi List


hi.
it seems like i received this email multiple times...


 However, there are few areas I am still confused about. First of
all, I am
 unsure of how to extract muliple co-ordinates from
[pix_multiblob]. I
 understand that the data from multiblob is collated within a
matrix. I am
 able to see this in the pd window when I print. However, I am
unsure how to
 use a matrix. Is there a certain object that I should be sending
to from
 [pix_multiblob]? And in turn, how would I convert the matrix into xy
 co-ordinates.


there is a separate library dedicated to the kind of matrices
output by
[pix_multiblob]; it's called iemmatrix.

however, you should have an understanding of matrices in order to
use it.

matrices of this form are simple messages which you can treat like any
other message.
attached are two examples on how to extract the rows of a matrix (and
pix_multiblob will give you one row per blob; so this is interesting
data), one using iemmatrix ([pix_rows]) and one using zexy
([pix_rowz]).
it is left as an exercise for the user to make a pd-vanilla
implementation.

just send the mtx-output of [pix_multiblob] to the object, and you
will
get nice lists for each blob, starting with the index of the blob
(zero-based) and then comes the data.
use [route] to filter the relevant blobs and [unpack] to access
the data.



 In the archives I found a response to similar a question saying
there was a
 gem example with matrix and multiblob, but I can not seem to
find it. Any
 idea what and where this is?


there's an abstraction called [pix_blobtracker] which uses
[pix_multiblob] and matrix operations to track blobs.



 Hope thats not too many questions. And is it easier for the list
if I divide
 questions up (for archive purposes perhaps)?


personally i would prefer separate threads for separate questions for
starters. it always ends in confusion, but we could try to delay
this...

[PD] pd-extended build for linux x86_64?

2009-04-07 Thread Jaime Oliver
Hello all,

Is there a pd-extended build for linux x86_64?
I need some of the objects it has and would rather get them compiled,
because I am having a lot of trouble compiling them myself, except for
freeverb~ which compiled right away. In any case if someone wouldn't
mind sending along their x86_64, .pd_linux versions of the following
objects I'd appreciate it.

I need:

vbap
define_loudspeakers
pool
matrix~

thanks,

Jaime

Re: [PD] mapping: path setting hell

2009-04-07 Thread Hans-Christoph Steiner


Yes, there is some absurdity to this conversation.  I guess Frank and  
I have been doing this for so long, its just part of a game we play ;-)


Anyway, I could give the instructions in one step:

1. use Pd-extended ;-)

I don't think many newbies really want to get into the nitty-gritty of  
hand-built Pd installs, but this conversation did make me smooth out  
the installation process.  Before, the 10 steps were for creating a  
library from scratch.  I think its pretty simple considering.  Now,  
the libraries are pre-built in SVN, so you only need to:


1. cd /path/to/your/extra (or wherever you want to install stuff)
2. svn co 
http://pure-data.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/pure-data/trunk/externals/mapping
3. svn co 
http://pure-data.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/pure-data/trunk/abstractions/purepd
4. pd -lib libdir -lib purepd -lib mapping

If that doesn't work for you, there is a bug.  That has been working  
with Pd-extended for some years now.  As for issues with this setup,  
please elaborate on them so we can fix things.

Hmm, because you are doing it wrong?  Try this:

1. create a single place to store externals, I recommend ~/pd- 
externals/

2. add it to your path
3. cd /path/to/pure-data/trunk/abstractions/
4. cp -a purepd ~/pd-externals

(mapping is still poorly organized in SVN, so its a bit harder)

5. cd /path/to/pure-data/trunk/externals/mapping
6. mkdir ~/pd-externals/mapping
7. cp -a *.pd ~/pd-externals/mapping
8. cd help
9. cp -a *-help.pd ~/pd-externals/mapping
10. touch ~/pd-externals/mapping/mapping-meta.pd

That's it.  Then if you have the libdir.pd_linux loader loaded, you  
can also load that as a lib using any of the standard methods.   
(you'll need the libdir.c from SVN).


pd -lib libdir -lib mapping
declare -lib mapping

I'm not doing it wrong, it works fine.

But because mapping is sometimes using prefixes internally,  
sometimes not (you

get [float_argument] and [purepd/float_argument] or [reverse] and
[mapping/reverse]) this results in users having to add twice the  
amount of

paths or imports.


Inside of the objects themselves, I use always the [mapping/reverse]  
form.  Only in the help patches do I use the [reverse] form.  That  
convention seemed to make sense at the time, but I am not married to it.

netpd does quite a bit of text parsing, so it is possible.  I don't

Its probably worthwhile to setup the whole Pd build system for Mingw

i guess you meant to name it either audiomath/ 
libaudiomath.so (or .dll or .dylib) or audiomath/ 
audiomath.pd_linux.


Perhaps audiomath/libaudiomath.so makes the most sense so that it  
can't be loaded by Pd as an objectclass.  But I am guessing.


the latter is btw, similar to what zexy and/or Gem suggest  
upstream (that is: from my side; not to be confused with any  
packagers' versions):: zexy/zexy.pd_linux holds shared code (e.g.  
[~]) and signle-file-object live side-by-side to it, e.g. rad2deg.pd;


i admit that currently all C-code is considered shared (that is:  
there is no list2symbol.pd_linux), but once you start blurring the  
two worlds it get's blurry anyhow (and l2s and list2symbol share  
about 100% of their code anyhow)


I like having each objectclass as its own file.  Then only the code  
that is in use will be loaded into memory.  linking everything  
together into one zexy.pd_linux means the whole thing is loaded into  
memory, no?


having said all that, i think it is a good idea: i would like to be  
able (e.g. in Pd-extended) to load Gem (without modifying the  
path!) and it should find Gem/Gem.pd_linux and add Gem/ to it's  
search paths (for abstractions and single-file externals)
i would also like to have Pd's loading mechanism modified so that it  
_temporarily_ adds Gem/ to the dylib-searchpath, so one could ship a  
library with external dependencies (without having to link them  
statically)


I am sure you don't mean to do this on GNU/Linux, right?

I take it you mean like including a .dylib in the Gem folder?  Kind of  
like what I do with Pd-extended and the Fink dylibs?  That is not a  
great system.  I think due to the limitations of the Mac OS X shared  
lib loading, it would be painful.  Basically, AFAIK, a .dylib in Mac  
OS X must have its path hard-coded in the file.  Otherwise, you have  
to load it manually with a direct call to dlopen.  I don't remember  
the details in Windows, I think that it already checks . for .dlls  
by default.

yay, more libraries!  If you add a simple patch called abunch033- 
meta.pd to the folder, then that folder will be a 'libdir' library.   
That means you can drop it into ~/Library/Pd and it will act like a  
full Pd library.  So you can then do things like:


[abunch033/clock]

or

[import abunch033]

[clock]

That then provides a way to handle name conflicts, since you have a  
number of common words: timeline, waves, clock, slice, etc.  Here's  
the cross-platform install instructions, just drop the abunch033  
folder with the abunch033-meta.pd file in the right folder and it will  
work (needs the latest nightly builds of Pd-extended):

Hello,

Here is my release of Abunch, a collection of 50 abstractions for Pd  
vanilla. I started developing these patches for the different  
courses that I teach (for performers, for composers, for students,  
for teenagers,...). It is conceived as an easy introduction to  
computer music. After a while I started adding more advanced  
features because I also started using it myself, not just for  
teaching but for performing and composing.


I guess most people on this list are Pd-users, so the explanation  
about Abunch is rather simple:

-all controle data are normalized within the range of 0 - 127
-give an unique number to every abunch abstraction as an argument.  
So if you want to create two phasers: [phaser 1] and [phaser 2]
-you can save presets by creating the object 'presets' and giving it  
one symbol as an argument, like [presets phaserpresets]


Every abunch object has a help file. You need to have a Pd version  
0.40 or higher.


The fastest way to get to know Abunch is to have a look at the  
example files. There are about 30 of them, they are in the abunch  
folder and start with 'ex'  (like 'ex1a-play.pd').


You can download Abunch (and find more information) on this site:
http://home.versateladsl.be/hanstine/hans/abunch-eng.htm

Voor de Nederlandstaligen: je kan ook een Nederlandstalige versie  
downloaden (met help files en uitleg in het Nederlands):

Abunch was realized with the support of the University College of  
Ghent (Faculty of Music and Drama)(Belgium).

Re: [PD] mapping: path setting hell

Hallo,

Yes, there is some absurdity to this conversation.  I guess Frank  
and I

have been doing this for so long, its just part of a game we play ;-)

Anyway, I could give the instructions in one step:

1. use Pd-extended ;-)


But that's exactly what I mean: mapping IMO has become promotion  
material for
pd-extended, but increasingly hard to use for users of newer Pd  
versions or

alternative distributions.

I don't think many newbies really want to get into the nitty-gritty  
of
hand-built Pd installs, but this conversation did make me smooth  
out the
installation process.  Before, the 10 steps were for creating a  
library
from scratch.  I think its pretty simple considering.  Now, the  
libraries

are pre-built in SVN, so you only need to:

1. cd /path/to/your/extra (or wherever you want to install stuff)
2. svn co 
http://pure-data.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/pure-data/trunk/externals/mapping
3. svn co 
http://pure-data.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/pure-data/trunk/abstractions/purepd
4. pd -lib libdir -lib purepd -lib mapping


You cheat a bit here: svn co whereverlibdiris; make libdir, and I  
don't know,
if help-files in mapping work then - with just your sets they won't.  
And you
still have the requirement of putting the directories mapping and  
purepd into a
directory in the pd path like extra, so it's still four paths to  
set, just

like I wrote in my first mail.


How about checking whether help files work before reporting the  
problem?  You only need to install libdir once.  Plus if you use the  
latest version of libdir, then 'extra' can be any folder in the path.   
I suggest one of these:

Hi there everyone.

I want to ask, can anybody give me information about universities  
that give
a master degree in new media arts, probably those that similar with  
MIT

Media Lab. I've just graduated with a bachelor degree in electrical
engineering, and in my final assignment, I create some kind of  
installation
using Arduino and Pd. After that, I feel very eager to continue  
studying
about this new media art field. So can anybody tell me where should  
i go?

Any information will be appreciated.

Thank you very much everybody!

Cheers

 You only need to install libdir once.  Plus if you use the latest version

 these:

 http://puredata.info/docs/faq/how-do-i-install-externals-and-help-files-with-pd-extended

Okay, here's what I did: 

$ cp -a SVN/mapping /usr/lib/pd/extra
$ cd SVN/loaders
$ svn update
$ make (to make libdir.pd_linux)
$ pd -lib libdir -lib mapping

gives this:
...
libdir loader $Revision: 1.8 $
compiled on Apr  8 2009 at 07:46:59
compiled against Pd version 0.42.4.
mapping: can't load library
...

and I still cannot create any mapping object. I was able to fix that by adding
a mapping-meta.pd file manually (copied from some pd-extended source on my
disk, could find one in SVN's trunk). Help files still don't work.

According to http://puredata.info/docs/developer/Libdir help-files have to be
either in 5.reference/libname or next to the object in question. Both is not
the case the way mapping is laid out and again something, that has to be done
manually.

That's all pretty complicated for a newbie like me. :)
