ROTATING NODES -
visual example for dynamic object creation

rotation

Recently i`ve been interested in extending patching
possibilities and trying to generate more instances
of the same abstraction.

This example is about rotating elements (the same
abstractions ) towards the mouse within the GEM window.
The elements are behaving the same way, they are
moving semi-randomly around the window while pointing
towards the cursor.

Feel free to reuse the code.

SWARMING NODES -
visual example of swarm-like behaviour

swarmers

This example demonstrates a mouse-following behaviour
within the GEM window. The nodes create different
sounds, according to their positions.

Important feature of their behaviour is that they
know each other`s position by storing and
reading them using an array. They try to keep distance
from each other, while trying to follow the mouse
position.

DRAWING CURVES -
visual example of connecting nodes

connections

Semi-randomly moving white nodes form two ending
points of a straight line. The green nodes are
controlling a green beziér curve, bending
dinamically the connection between the white
nodes.

COURSES

Pure Data + tracking course @ Moholy-Nagy University of Design and Arts, 2008 fall


Course is going to cover:
- pd basics (syntax)
- sound in pd (sampling, filtering)
- visuals with GEM (video, 3d)
- tracking with camera (color, motion, blob, fiducial tracking)

Patches, videos, related stuff are available at
the course site (hungarian)
