Piksel[1] is an international event for artists and developers working with
open source audiovisual software, hardware & art. Part workshop, part
festival, it is organised in Bergen, Norway, by the Bergen Centre for
Electronic Arts (BEK) [2] and involves participants from more than a dozen
countries exchanging ideas, coding, presenting art and software projects,
doing workshops, performances and discussions on the aesthetics and politics
of FLOSS & art.
This years event - Piksel07 - continues the exploration of free/libre and
open source audiovisual code and it's myriad of expressions, and also
investigates further the open hardware theme introduced at Piksel06.
Piksel07 is done in collaboration with Gallery 3,14[3] which will host this
years exhibition. Piksel is organised by BEK and a community of core
participants including members of collectives dyne.org, goto10.org, ap/xxxxx,
hackitectura.net, riereta.net, drone.ws, gephex.org and others.

Dear all,
I'd just like to announce the release of Csound 5.06. This release
includes new opcodes (now amounting to just 1265...)
some improvements to the API, full support for Python 2.5, and a new addition,
which should interest linux users, of csLADSPA.
csLADSPA is a csd-to-LADSPA plugin toolkit. With it, plugins can be
written as Csound code and be used with any LADSPA host, such as
audacity, jack-rack and ardour. It seems to be a great companion to
Ardour 2, for the multitracking crowd.
See in
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=81968&package_id=1204…
Here's some quick release notes:
Bug fixes:
'system' at k-rate was just wrong
'vrandh' and 'vrandi' scaling problems
'turnoff' sometimes failed
'mod' was wrong
'tempest' OSX bug fixed
'ATScross' fixed and 'ATSadd' output made cleaner
New opcodes etc:
- partikkel, partikkelsync -- particle synthesis ('the mother of all
granular syntheses')
- New command line options to control messages
- eqfil -- equaliser filter
- diskgrain -- granular synthesis from disk
- pvsdiskin -- fsig streaming from disk
- pvsmorph -- pvs data interpolation (spectral morphing)
- scoreline -- score event dispatch
- porting of opcodes from CsoundAV by Gabriel Maldonado:
hvs1, hvs2, hvs3, vphaseseg, FLkeyin, FlslidBnk2, FlvslidBnk,
FlvslidBnk2, inrg,
outrg, lposcila, lposcilsa, lposcilsa2, tabmorph, tabmorpha,
tabmorphak, FLhvsBox,
tabmorphi, trandom, vtable1k, slider8table, slider16table,
slider32table, slider64table,
slider8tablef, slider16tablef, slider32tablef, FLmouse, FLxyin
slider64tablef, sliderKawai and an a-rate version of ctrl7.
A number of internal changes; a new API for allowing host applications to be
notified whenever Csound opens a file. (And accompanying changes to the
recommended interface for plugins to open files)."
Frontends:
csladspa -- CSD to LADSPA plugin kit
improvements to csoundapi~ (v.1.01 now)
New-look csound5gui now works on all platforms (last release had OSX bugs)
