BEAM Festival presents BEAM NIGHT – a special one-off taster event held at Cafe OTO. 
Following BEAM’s mission, the acts of this night were all featured at BEAM 2011 and all use unusual and/or homemade interfaces to perform.

http://www.beamfestival.com/beam-night/

- Atau Tanaka & Adam Parkinson play iPhones as sensitive, handheld controllers. 
- Bruno Zamborlin performs Cafe OTO’s wall – possibly for the first time?! With his invention, Mogees, which read gestural language on any surface.
- Marco Donnarumma’s Music for Flesh is a visceral sensor performance using his instrument system Xth sense, which has just been named “the world’s most innovative new musical instrument” and awarded First Prize at the Guthman Musical Instrument Competiton in Atlanta. 
- Tom Bugs (maker of Bugbrand synth products) appears in a rare performance using his Modular Synths and also sets up a mini-installation for the night.
- The beguilingly creative Leafcutter John conjures up soundscapes with his new explorations in light and sound.

hope to see some of you there,
best wishes,

new GUI obect: filterview, for generating and seeing biquad coefficients


Announcing [filterview], a new GUI object for generating and visualizing biquad coefficients.  It allows
to you manipulate the filter band, frequency, and gain using your mouse.  The magnatude and phase are then
graphed in realtime as the parameters changed, and the list of biquad coefficients are output. It is
inspired by the [filtergraph~] object in Max/MSP.  Thanks to Mike Moser-Booth for doing all of the math
behind the scenes.

It requires Pd-extended 0.43 to run. I just got to a beta state, it works well for me, but it does crash Pd
sometimes when you close a patch with [filterview] in it.  Try it out and let me know how it works for you.

http://puredata.info/downloads/filterview

Also, as a side note, this object is an experiment with a new way of writing GUI objects.  It started out as a
pure Tcl program, and the GUI part still runs as a standalone Tcl program (try running ./filterview.tcl
from the Terminal).  This makes development and debugging vastly easier.  Additionally, I tried to move
more of the GUI code to the Tcl side, so you'll see that it uses fewer widgetbehaviors, and uses Tk's bind
feature quite a bit.

framesync 0.0 released! Library for syncing sound to videos


Finally, after a few years, I've made a framesync release!  Its been working really well for me, now we can see
how it'll work for you ;).

http://puredata.info/downloads/framesync

framesync is a library for syncing sounds to video using frame numbers as the unit of time. It was developed
as part of the sound design for a number of video projects: nohTimegarden with Claudia Hart, the Cartier
Foundation's Terre Natale project, and most recently Undervine with Bobby Pietrusko and Stewart Smith.
There are a couple of concepts in this library necessary to understand in order to use it:

• the FPS (Frames-Per-Second) is a global value set everywhere

• the frameclock is global, and each framesync object receives it automatically

• the frameclock starts at 0 and flows linearly

PuREST JSON Version 0.7.1 released

Hello,

I am happy to announce version 0.7.1 of PuREST JSON, Codename: cookie 
monster on the couch [*].

PuREST JSON is a library for working with JSON data and communication 
with RESTful HTTP webservices that use JSON data.

New in this release:
- You can now use cookie authentication, e.g. for secure communication 
with a CouchDB, but it also works for any other implementation of HTTP 
security with cookies, as long as the expected post data is in the 
format "name=<username>&password=<password>", and only expects 1 cookie 
on each request.

- [rest-json] has a third outlet, that reports the HTTP status of the 
request. That enables you to react e.g. on HTTP status 403 and 
re-authorize your connection.

See the help files, manuals and examples for details.

Github repository: https://github.com/residuum/PuRestJson
Debian package for i386: 
https://github.com/downloads/residuum/PuRestJson/pd-purest-json_0.7.1_i386.deb

Have fun,
Thomas

PS: For those of you waiting for OAUTH: I am still planning to 
implementing it, but I am not sure, if a general implementation is even 
possible. But I will see to it.

[*] Well actually 0.7 was cookie monster on the couch, but it still had 
two serious bug that I have fixed.
