Hello,

I just released a new version of ttslib, a processing wrapper for the freetts library.

in this version I added two new speak methods, that allow to choose which speaker the text should be coming from
1. ```
tts.speak( "I am in the center" );
```
2. ```
tts.speakLeft( "I am on the left" );
```
3. ```
 tts.speakRight( "I am on the right" );
```
The library can be downloaded from my blog at http://www.local-guru.net/blog/2012/11/25/Processing-TTSlib-version-0.4-released

Processing Multitouch Swarm Application

For this years company christmas party at hpc we handed a plushed toy to every customer that visited us, which was a donation for the St Anna Child Cancer Research Center

We had a Panda, a Sheep and a Rabbit. We tagged the animals with a barcode and for every animal we handed out we added one to the virtual playground on our multitouch table. Our visitors could search their animals using a barcode scanner. When a barcode was scanned the image was centered around the animal and it was paused for some seconds.
I made a short video and posted a simplified version of the application that runs as an applet on my blog

Animator Library - 2nd Alpha version
[1Reply]
- 13-Nov-2011 07:02 AM
- Forum: Library and Tool Development
gave some more code and love to my animator-library for processing and I think it has improved enough to release a new version
Animators can now be added to a Sequence
```
Sequence s = new Sequence(); s.addAnimator( new LinearAnimator( 500,100,200 )); s.addAnimator( new SquareAnimator( 200, 200, 100 )); 
```
the sequence can be started using s.start() and the value is fetched using s.get()

A simpler form of defining sequences is to use the string-parser

the same Sequence as above can be defined using
```
Sequence s = Sequence.parse( "S100,L500->200,Q200->100"); 
```
The animators are separated with a comma, each block starts with a letter and one or two parameter
- "S" is the start value
- "L" defines a LinearAnimator the first integer defines the time the second one the target value
- "Q" defines a SquareAnimator the first integer defines the time the second one the target value
- "R" defines a RootAnimator the first integer defines the time the second one the target value
- "D" defines a Delay in milliseconds
I also added a bunch of new Examples that show how to use the new features AND improved the documentation A LOT ( <- read "I wrote some" :-) )

See the anouncement blog post here or go directly to the project page here

again feedback is very welcome

I experimented a bit with the geomerative library. So far I made 4 sketches featuring the RFont class and the
possibility to get the points on a letter.

exploding-letters features a particle engine and makes the text explode when clicked

growing-font-in-processing features growing twines from a font

text-from-ants makes a group of ants form letters

font-boids makes the letters dissolve into a swarm of boids

Hexagonal Labyrinth printed on a 3D-Printer

I wrote processing sketches to generate labyrinths ( local-guru.net/blog/2011/04/23/generating-labyrinths-in-processing )

or hexagonal labyrinths ( local-guru.net/blog/2011/04/26/hexagonal-labyrinths-in-processing ) some days ago.

Then I modified my sketch a bit to generate a 3D version of the labyrinth and export it as a stl-File ( local-guru.net/blog/2011/04/29/printed-hexagonal-labyrinth )

So if you need a labyrinth for your next puzzle or your science experiment with ants or ... download the sketch, generate a labyrinth, take the stl-file and print it on your makerbot or use it in your mashups.

ttslib version 0.3 released

Hi,

I just made a new version of ttslib
Because of the HUUUUGE popular demand - ahm - i mean because theboypip asked me ;-),
this version also supports changing the voice pitch by using
1. tts.setPitch( 1000 ); // set the base frequency to 1000 hertz
2. tts.setPitchShift( 1.2 ); // how much should the pich change over time?
3. tts.setPitchRange(100); // in this example the pitch will vary between 1000 and 1100 hertz
Go to the ttslib--project-page to download the new version

I started a little Advent Calendar containing Processing sketches.

In Door 24 I haven't hidden a processing sketch as usual.

A while ago I started writing a book about processing. This is the first Beta release - It's far from done but I crave for feedback - so please please please read it and leave a comment or drop me a mail :-)

What should I change? What am I missing? What sentences aren't propper english? Where are the errors in the code?

please download a copy from my blog

Happy Holidays :-)

R is a powerfull open source statistic environment. I use the R engine to make some

Custom Cookie Cutters for the Makerbot

Recently some very awsome cookiecutter-designs started to show up on thingiverse (like the escher cookie cutter or the jigsaw cookie cutter, and many more) (and one of the local radiostations has played "last cristmas", because it's only 6 months till x-mas O_o )

So i thought about how the generation of such custom cookie cutters could be simplified and i developed a custom cookie cutter generator in processing.
