[locustream] important news for all streamers

Hello all. Several important annoncements: 1/ Locus sonus as been given a new icecast server by a generous sponsor. This means that we no longer have any limit to the number of ogg vorbis streams simultaneously present. We are hoping to expand the project to include as many new streams as possible so please feel free to spread this news and have other people contact us if they would like to get involved. To stream from the new server please download the new patch here: http://nujus.net/~locusonus/site/streams/download.html login: lhoosl You'll find a few new features, you can now enter your streaming data without going into programming mode also we've included some filters so that you have more control over the sound of your stream. To check that your stream is present on the new map: http://nujus.net/~locusonus/site/streams/mapcreacast.php To check on the server: http://locus.creacast.com:9001/ As soon as everyone has migrated to the new server we'll switch the map on the website. 2/ Locus Sonus has been invited to set up a stream installation over a longer time period (1 year) at the Musée de Gap: http://www.ia05.ac- aix-marseille.fr/musee/musee.htm. The plan is to hang parabolic loud speakers at different locations in and around the museum each with a different stream so that visitors will experience the sound environment from your microphones either by stumbling on them as they visit the museum or by deliberately returning at different seasons, times of day etc. Our plan is to slowly build up the number of listening spots over the year as more streams become available, however the show is due to start in the middle of june so we're counting on you all (or rather we're asking you nicely) to keep your streams up and running in as permanent manner as possible. 3/ Another generous sponsor, a computer recycling company called micro orange: http://www.microrange.com/ have given us a palette load of PCs which although old, are ideal for running a stream. We are currently configuring them with an ubuntu system and sound cards so if anyone needs a machine to be able to stream permanently, please let us know so that we can plan on getting one to you. 4/ We will be presenting "Locustream tuner" and various perfomance works using the streams at the the festival Bandimages in Bourges for a week from May 7th. It would be great to have as many streams up and running as possible, also we'll be preparing (using the streams) the week before from April 30th. 5/ Some streamers have been using the streams for art art works of their own, we're very open to these initiatives and would like to hear about any which you might be involved in. The idea is to put up links from the Locus sonus website and we are also wondering if we couldn't work some of your stuff into our public presentations...
