greetings

i notice usually people using processing for timing and send messages from processing to sc?
for example   http://www.erase.net/projects/processing-sc/ 
or OpenObject Quark http://vimeo.com/7182132#at=0

like using OpenObject Quark in supercollider i can easily

A. "publish" sound object for OSC control in SC
Ndef(\saw).publish(\test);

B. send message to this object from PROCESSING
osc.send("/oo", new Object[] {"test","play"}, sc);

OpenObject Quark is very handy BUT i find it very hard to compose visuals to audio way
i would prefer to make it other way around, both
make a/v sequences, control structures with routines and patterns in sc
so how to sync both exactly and make sc timing master?


//more specific question:
testing  sc to processing via osc now i am confused about message and its receiver
for example using code below processing prints that message is received

// sending messige from sc to processing
~processingOut = NetAddr("127.0.0.1", 49110);
~processingOut.sendMsg("/from_SC", 500);

BUT how to specify id, what exactly receives incoming messages from sc in processing?
like specific variables, parameters that waits only messages "/from_SC", "/from_SC02" etc. ?

i guess you also have to specify is it integers of floats since processing needs to know that?

any examples, tutorials, experiences, suggestions about this approach will be highly appreciated, thanks

// processing code

import oscP5.*;
import netP5.*;
 
OscP5 oscP5;
NetAddress myRemoteLocation;

void setup() {
  size(400,400);
  frameRate(25);
  /* start oscP5, listening for incoming messages at port 49110 */
  oscP5 = new OscP5(this,49110);
 
  myRemoteLocation = new NetAddress("127.0.0.1",57120);
}


void draw() {
  background(0);  
}


/* incoming osc message are forwarded to the oscEvent method. */
void oscEvent(OscMessage theOscMessage) {
  print("### received an osc message.");
  print(" addrpattern: "+theOscMessage.addrPattern());
  println(" typetag: "+theOscMessage.typetag());
}
