Anyone here ever try it ?
I found it when I searched YouTube for "linux audio" and "linux
music".
Btw, I'm running the nsplugin wrapper to get Flash in 64Studio's Firefox
(aka Iceweasel), it works perfectly.
Hi Dave,
I'm a huge fan of this software/art project. They use Blender for the
interface and I beleive there is (or used to be) some Puredata in there.
I was so impressed with the idea that I started something similar using
Puredata and GEM:

To my mind, 3d game-like synthesizer interfaces are one way of keeping
electronic music performance distinctively non-boring. I'm really excited
about the future of this kind of stuff and similar things where audio
artists collaborate with visual artists by sending their OSC packets to
their 3d program. I guess it's like a more structured and planned
version of what sometimes goes on in a livecoding situation.
fijuu and ergates do indeed indicate a new direction for a/v performance
- I like to see the visuals driving the music for a change :)
my contribution to this field is called al-jazari, a gamepad controlled
programmable robot music sequencer:

I've only done one performance with it so far, but it went down quite
well, as I think it's a more inclusive take on livecoding
cheers,
