Re: [PD] Pd FLOSS Manuals Book Sprint WIKI

I had some questions about the next days:

- the berlin one starts at "noon". what is noon exactly here, or, how does  
it translates into a definite hour?
- how late is "late" as well? (for some people, 4am isn't late)
- I don't have time now to be thinking of a new super concept to make  
people understand digital audio in 5 minutes. so I would be glad to revise  
material that other people don't want to touch.
- when are the pauses to have a beer at treptower park if it's still as  
sunny as today?

I had some questions about the "philosophical" point of this. I was just  
having a look at the manuals:

- the manuals are a bit loose, it's a bit of nice ideas put together  
(which is normal for the beginning). maybe they could be organized around  
themes later?
- they're also made almost as if they would be the only resources online.  
how about putting at least a reference to the pd original tutorials? (I  
can go hunt for that) or maybe even to other tutorials spread around (that  
might be a bit more tricky, in case this material isn't that solid)
- what's the main goal of this manual? just include as much stuff as  
possible, or is there an "editorial line", or a finished form to aim at?
- in general, I guess the dataflow (or control) tutorials could be more  
developed - comparing with the audio ones, they're behind. shouldn't they  
also come first, sequentially?
- there was some comments before about incorporating pd-ext into the  
manuals. that means that pd-ext is then the "official" version? (which is  
fine for me, makes more sense for newcommers) in that case, the most  
stable libraries should be included in the manuals as well (making a

Re: Pd FLOSS Manuals Book Sprint WIKI

Derek,

I was poking around the site, and it looks great. I was noticing that
the link on the (
http://en.flossmanuals.net/bin/view/PureData/ChitChat ) page has a
broken link for ( http://en.flossmanuals.net/puredata ), it would
appear there is a space at the end of the link, and as such, does not
work...

Pd FLOSS Manual Update pt 1

Dear list,

the book sprint for the Pd FLOSS Manual last weekend went very well! 
Several writers and proofreaders joined us at each location in New York 
City and Berlin, as well as remote contributors online (see contributors 
below).

The good news is that quite a lot of content was generated over the 
weekend, including the beginnings of entirely new sections on GEM, MIDI, 
Network Data and Sensors. You can see the work-in-progress FLOSS Manual 
via the editing interface here:

http://en.flossmanuals.net/bin/view/PureData/WebHome

The not-so-good news is that most of these new sections are in limbo! 
Next month, Adam and I hope to publish version 1.0 of the Pure Data 
FLOSS Manual to the front page of the FLOSS Manuals site for public viewing:

http://en.flossmanuals.net/

The chapters that will be included in Version 1.0 will be:

INTRODUCTION
INSTALLING
GETTING STARTED
THE INTERFACE
AUDIO TUTORIALS
DATAFLOW TUTORIALS
STREAMING
LIST OF OBJECTS

Pd FLOSS Manual Update pt 2

So here is part two!

The following chapters were newly created during the Book Sprint. We'd 
really like to see them come together, but we don't think they will be 
anywhere near ready before we decide to publish the version 1.0. Futher 
work on these chapters is also appreciated, but only after the chapters 
we have marked for inclusion in the 1.0 are complete. Writing, editing 
and proofreading on these chapters can continue as normal, and when we 
are ready for a second release (now with GEM + SENSORS!) then we will 
include them.

CHAPTERS FOR FURTHER DEVELOPMENT, not to be included in upcoming 1.0 
release:

GEM
SENSORS
MIDI
NETWORK DATA

When the version 1.0 is completed, and these chapters are also fixed, 
then we can consider a paper publication!!!!!!

Here are the issues and places for improvement on each chapter. Again, 
we welcome improvements to these chapters, but if you are going to spend 
any time on this manual in the next few weeks, it would make more sense 
to focus on the chapters marked for publication (see Part 1 of this update):

____GEM_____

-> These chapters need a lot of work to be anywhere near complete!

Bonjour,

Samedi 25 à partir de 18h30, à Quimper, une rencontre autour des
pratiques
expérimentales de création numérique.
Ce sera l'occasion de voir, présentés par leurs auteurs, des projets

Workshop spatial acoustics simulation with Georg Holzmann in Halle/Germany

ENGLISH: Workshop announcment spatial acoustics simulation in Pure data

GERMAN:
Georg Holzmann (DE): Raumklangsimulation mit Pure data
5.6.2009 14 UHR - 7.6.2009 16 UHR

Der Workshop beschäftigt sich mit der räumlichen Abbildung von Klängen  
bzw. Musik mit Hilfe der freien Software „Pure data“. Er bietet  
konzeptionelle sowie soft- bzw. hardwaretechnische Anleitung zum  
ästhetischen und konzeptionellen Zusammenhang zwischen Klang als  
zeitlichem Phänomen und  Raum.

Verschiedene experimentelle und akademische Techniken zur  
Klangspatialisation werden vorgeführt, diskutiert und an einer  
Lautsprecheranordnung vor Ort demonstriert. Desweiteren werden Modelle  
und psychoakustische Grundlagen der binauralen Abbildung von Klängen  
(2D- und 3D-Klangbewegungen mit Kopfhörern) vorgestellt. Im zweiten  
Teil des Workshops wird auf die mitgebrachten Konzepte und Ideen der  
Teilnehmenden eingegangen, indem sie technische und inszenatorische  
Unterstützung bei ihren Projekten erhalten.

Dieser Workshop findet in Kooperation mit dem Department Medien- und  
Kommunikationswissenschaft der Martin-Luther-Universität Halle- 
Wittenberg im Mitteldeutschen Multimediazentrum, Mansfelderstraße 56  
in Halle (Saale), statt.

Teilnehmer: 5 bis 9
Teilnahmegebühr: 110 €, ermäßigt 90 €
Georg Holzmann

Georg Holzmann wurde an der Technischen und Kunstuniversität Graz,  
Österreich zum Toningenieur ausgebildet. Er beschäftigt sich mit  
elektronischer Musik und Informatik und präsentierte verschiedene  
Arbeiten auf zahlreichen Festivals in Europa und Amerika. Derzeit  
forscht er an der Technischen Universität Berlin im Bereich der  
künstlichen Intelligenz.
