I asked about that on the rt list, but some symbols are exported GPL by the
rt-patch which disallows their use by the nvidia binary. Patching that would
probably violate the GPL.

Is that really what we want though? Automatic feeds?
When I started to use Linux few years back to produce music, what I
wanted to know is: what software to use, what can they do, few
audio/video examples to judge by myself if that was what I was looking
for.
I stumbled accross a few of these automatic generated feeds, and to be
honest they didn't tell me much.
Shouldn't we start by deciding the audience we want to reach?
We don't really want to "advertise" to the advanced users, they
already know where to look.
And I'm afraid the "newbe" would be overwhelmed by an automatic feed.
What I had in mind was this:
- A single campaign on facebook/twitter/google+ around the major
actors of FOSS music software (like Ardour, LMMS, Hydrogen, etc...)
- A simple message
- And see how that goes to repeat the experience (or not!)
I still agree that we should centralize the action though!

From: SuperCollider Symposium London <info(a)sc2012.org.uk>
The SuperCollider Symposium is an international event for musicians,
artists, researchers and coders working with the SuperCollider
software. It features a technical conference, introductory workshops,
and a diverse programme of music and art.
The next SuperCollider Symposium will be April 12th–19th 2012, in London.
http://sc2012.org.uk/
We invite submissions of music, artistic works, talks, and workshops.
Submissions will be peer-reviewed, and should be submitted by:
* Submission date: 16th Oct 2011
* Notification of acceptance: 2nd Dec 2011
The Symposium will be hosted at various venues across East London, by
QMUL Centre for Digital Music, Goldsmiths Digital Studios, City
University Centre for Music Studies, and other partners. All concerts,
performances and exhibitions will be open to the public.
Further details for submissions (plus submission instructions, at the end):
//////////////////
// TALKS
Conference talks are invited on topics of SuperCollider-related
research, technical development, or artistic/musical practice. (Note
that submission is by abstract only, there are no full papers.) Some
examples of subject areas include:
* Audio/music synthesis
* Interactive sound and music
* Machine listening
* Generative sound and music
* Artistic developments
* Teaching and Learning
* Creative Collaborations
* Extending SuperCollider
* Using SuperCollider with other environments
//////////////////
// CLUB MUSIC
The symposium will feature a club night in an East London venue.
Therefore we’re calling for submissions of music for dancing to. Acts
can be any style, but must include some substantial use of
SuperCollider.
//////////////////
// MUSICAL/SOUND WORKS
City University London in partnership with Plus-Minus ensemble
(http://www.plusminusensemble.com) will host an evening concert of
musical/sound works in City University Performance Space.
Works may fall into two categories: 1. purely
electronic/electroacoustic/acousmatic, or 2. instrument/s plus live
electronics. Available instruments are clarinet (doubling bass
clarinet), violin, and piano (doubling accordion). All works must
include some substantial use of SuperCollider.
Technical specs:
8-channel loudspeaker ring with subs, plus on-stage stereo pair.
Alternative loudspeaker configurations may be possible.
//////////////////
// WORKS FOR EXHIBITION
The exhibition programme at the Symposium will be hosted at the Art
Pavilion gallery (Mile End Park, London E3 4QY) and in the adjoining
Arts Park, which features a small lake island. We seek proposals for
works small or large, which may be exhibited in the gallery space
and/or the outside space (lake, island, bridges). Proposals which make
use of the outside area are particularly encouraged. Works must
include some substantial use of SuperCollider.
Exhibition venue information:
* Webpage for the Art Pavilion (inc floor-plans):
<http://www.towerhamlets.gov.uk/lgsl/451-500/461_parks/mile_end_park/mile_en…>

Please ensure that you include information of the space and materials
required for the work.
//////////////////
// WORKSHOP LEADERS
Workshops will be held Sat 14th & Sun 15th April (at Goldsmiths), for
beginner/intermediate-level users. We seek people who would like to
lead a workshop – workshop leaders will be given free admission to the
Symposium. Workshop themes can be general (e.g. Introduction to
SuperCollider) or can cover specific topics, but please target the
beginner/intermediate level. Examples of workshop topics:
* Sound synthesis
* Live coding
* GUI programming
* Interaction with live instruments
* SuperCollider for research
//////////////////
// OTHER
If you would like to propose some other event or feature of the
symposium, please do – giving as much information as possible.
//////////////////
// SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS (for all types):

And you can use PHP offline to generate the static pages.

It's that time again.
After a 2 year hiatus and several new iterations of the Linux Desktop
environment it's time for another round of "The Most Loaded Linux Audio
Desktop" Competition.
==============================================
++++++++++++++++++++++
Previous years winners
++++++++++++++++++++++
Michael Watts - 2009
http://quicktoots.linuxaudio.org/link.php?id=18&url=index.php?t=1&v=1
Tim Orford - 2007
http://quicktoots.linuxaudio.org/link.php?id=16&url=index.php?t=1
==============================================
Who will be the new King/Queen of the Linux Desktop?
The rules are simple. Just take screen shots of your desktop workspace and
combine into one image so that people can see what you are able to run on
your machine/s. The winner is determined by numbers of views over a long
term period of approximately two years.
Send your entries to the list or to me personally.
If you can also provide a basic overview of what the apps are and how you
use them that will be included in the posting too.

Subject: Re: [LAU] (sort of) new music made with Linux
Hello Julien
I am certain that this is the most mature work you have yet released.
Whilst there are one or two places where there is maybe a slight danger of it
becoming a little repetitive due to the lack of a lead in areas where you had
originally intended lyrics, there is no doubt that it stands completely as an
instrumental. As in all the best instrumental symphonic prog there is plenty of
progression and layering and detail driving it on and dragging the listener in.
I think that is one area where this piece stands out: you've obviously put a
lot of effort into those little details (yet very time consuming to achieve and
get right) that make a big difference. It's raised this to a whole new level
with those professional touches. Definitely NOT a case of less being more.
I am sure that a few well-placed guitar solos and some nice rhythm work would
take it into the stratosphere, but for once I don't feel that it is crying out
for any guitar parts. The guitar-like synth parts, both rhythm and lead, are
perfect: they don't fool, but that is immaterial, they fill the space both
timbrally and musically and are just right rather than being a substitute for
anything.
The opening brings to mind Marillion's Warm Wet Circles and via swamp
soundscapes, nightmarish imagery and restful dreams to an ending that left me
expecting Yes to break into Roundabout but instead returns to the beginning
like some sort of musical Moebius strip -- what a journey.
Not less. MORE! ;-)

Hello Q!
Thanks a lot for the high praise. I feel, while you mentioned the time it
took and all the fine detail, I must mention, that there were good friends,
who had to listen to it over and over, while I was refining tis work. Perhaps
you can imagine being in their shoes. :-)
Thanks for listening and I'm very glad you liked it.
Warmly yours
julien
