I'm open to any ideas, be it an installation, game, or just a cool sketch. I've been programming for 15 years if you include all the time I was self-taught, with 3 years of professional game programming experience and a 4 year degree from DigiPen (www.digipen.edu) I also am pretty skilled in Wings3D, I've been able to build some decent single-mesh human models, and can get around Blender / Sunflow pretty well too. I understand the process of rigging and animating meshes, but I've only done it a couple times. Anyways, either reply here, send a PM, or you can just shoot me an email "jack dot w dot kern (gmail)" Looking forward to tossing around some ideas!

Take a look and ask any questions! The Tank is accepting proposals for: In/Out 2010: Digital Performance Festival In/Out is an annual festival that features leading performers, developers, artists, and tinkerers of the digital design community in hopes bridging the gap between the forum based world and the stage. The festival seeks to bring digitally driven performances into the limelight with two full days of workshops and performances. We invite programmers, visualists, hardware hackers, electronics gurus, musicians, and novices to take part in the events of In/Out. With workshops to encourage others to join in the fray and inspiring performances, this is not only the time for those interested in the constantly changing field to get involved, but for current members of the community to step up their game as well. The boundary pushing festival is produced by the Tank, a humble non-profit performing arts presenter located in Manhattan. In addition to In/Out, the Tank also produces the legendary Bent and Blip festivals as well as nightly performances from New York City's finest emerging artists. Visit In/Out's website at http://inoutfest.org/ Videos of last year's performances can be found at http://vimeo.com/album/158127 Photographs can be viewed at http://www.flickr.com/photos/tpiper/sets/ 72157622874966737/ This year's In/Out will take place on September 17 and 18, 2010 at... The Tank Theater 354 West 45th Street New York, NY 10036 Performers In/Out is searching for musicians, visualists, dancers, and performers who have integrated digital technologies into their work. From building custom controllers to creating their own software, or users of new technology, we want it! Submit a brief description of your performance along with a sample of your work. If at all possible, we would greatly appreciate proposal materials in the form of hyperlinks. Live performance videos are preferred. Workshops + Lectures Help motivate the vanguard by leading a workshop in new media for audio/video performance. Past workshops have included: working in Jitter, building drum machines in Reaktor, and code driven music composition with Processing. In/Out is especially interested in hands on, kit based, and introductory workshops. Please submit a brief description of what you would like to teach or share, along with any work you have done, are doing, or will do in the field.

I am preparing a class for k-12 around processing and computational art and physical computing and that course seems really interesting. I wouldn't be able to participate directly but I was wondering if I could receive the information from the course - of course I would be wiling to pay a fee for that.

Digital technology has become a standard tool for artists working in both new media and traditional forms, just as it has become enmeshed in ever aspect of contemporary life. The Free/Open Source Software movement has recently emerged as an alternative model to the traditional software industry. This panel explores the use of Free Software in the studio and the classroom. What possibilities can it open for students, and how does it impact our teaching? How does it fit into professional creative work? Can the ideas behind “open source” be applied to other forms of collabo- ration? This panel seeks papers and presentations addressing the use of open source software in studio practice and pedagogy, the state of the art in free creative software, and the nature of cultural production in a digital society. Please submit proposals and queries to Ben Chang ben@bcchang.com For the full conference call for participation, visit http://www.collegeart.org/proposals/ All participants in the conference must be members of CAA.  For more information, visit www.collegeart.org. code review (for 30$) num_1271290022.html Processing Discourse/Events, Publications, Opportunities num_1271290022.html Fri, 23 Apr 2010 11:12:17 +0000 How come it looks like every one of your Update methods calls background()? background is fairly slow and the P2D renderer is also somewhat slow, only a bit ahead of the JAVA2D renderer (default) Any chance the UMPC supports the OpenGL renderer? Otherwise I've found the P3D renderer to actually be faster than P2D in many cases, even for 2D. Also I still see some printf's in there. Those calls are very slow as well. Best bet is to create your own log(String) function to call instead of printf, then before exporting just comment out the println line inside your log function and you'll save the cost of calling printf all those times, and still have all your logging functionality. Otherwise, I really suggest cleaning up your indentation. As you continue to grow as a programmer the patterns you recognize will become more based on whitespace. You'll find it helps you follow the code much more quickly. (If the code isn't missaligned for you, perhaps you have a mixture of tabs and spaces for indenting -- I currently use spaces in place of tabs at 2 spaces per indent) Anyways, if you really want to figure out where the app is spending it's time, start in your draw loop and store millis() in integers before and after each function call. Get the difference between the two values and you have roughly the number of milliseconds each call takes. Find the one that takes the longest, and continue down that path until you can find what really needs to be optimized. It may come down to you're just using too much memory for the device, or you're allocating too much each frame, which will cause the garbage collector to start slowing down your app after some time. If this seems to be the case, then you just need to make sure that everything you're loading and allocating you do as much as possible in setup (or functions called from setup), and then never release all of your references to those objects so they persist for the lifetime of your app. And certainly don't load images every frame (But I didn't see any evidence of this) Hope some of those tips help, Jack video>>>patch num_1272021077.html Processing Discourse/Events, Publications, Opportunities num_1272021077.html Fri, 23 Apr 2010 04:11:17 +0000 a channel>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>upload your video>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>made with >>>>>>>>>>>>>a>>>>>>>>>>>>patch http://vimeo.com/channels/videopatch Spark Festival 2010 : Deadline 15, May 2010 num_1271966012.html Processing Discourse/Events, Publications, Opportunities num_1271966012.html info@christopherbaker.net (Christopher Baker) Thu, 22 Apr 2010 12:53:32 +0000 <a href="http://spark.cla.umn.edu/assets/img/MainSlideshowImage2.jpg" rel="gb_image[nice_pics]" title="..."><img src="http://spark.cla.umn.edu/assets/img/MainSlideshowImage2.jpg" name="post_img_resize" alt="..." title="..." border="0" style="display:none" /></a> Spark (<a href="http://spark.cla.umn.edu/" target="_blank">http://spark.cla.umn.edu/</a>) invites submissions of art, dance, theater, and music works incorporating new media, including electroacoustic concert music, experimental electronica, theatrical and dance works, installations, kinetic sculpture, artbots, video, and other non-traditional genres.
