[locustream] soundwork 16th June - 15th July in HK
by cedric _moneme 14 Jun '07

14 Jun '07

Hello, I would like to inform you that I will propose a work made from the streams in a sound art show in Hong Kong. Several artists will participate in this show called in midair: Felix Hess, Anson Mak, Kawai Shiu Sumei Tse, Yeung Ngor-wah, Yuen Cheuk Wa, and Robert Iolini. For more info about the show: http:// www.soundworkshongkong.net/ My work entitled "la mouvance des flux" is a soundscape composition based on an idea of random walk (generated through Brown algorithm). In this initial stage, a computer system made in max/msp select the streams, and spatialize them in a virtual space around listener's head (the streams are encoded into HRTF format for headphone listening). The streams will be put in movement, creating new tensions and forces between them. I hope to continue to develop this project later based on what comes out from this experimental stage. The exhibition will open on Saturday 16th June at 6 pm (HK time) and will last until 15th July. Audience might come anytime during daytime to experience this work. It would be nice to have as much streams as possible as they are the basis of that work, so that the re-composed soundscape can be varied. Thanks a lot for your help. Cheers, cedric.

[locustream] More PD stability in OSX
by marc_mcnulty 12 Jun '07

12 Jun '07

Hello, I have upgraded to Pd-0.39.2-extended-rc2 and noticed that my stream does not run the CPU up to 90% as often. When I was running Pd-0.39.2-extended-rc1 the patch would run up the CPU quite often. The new Pd-0.39.2-extended-rc2 build seems to address this problem to some degree. I have only had to restart PD twice today, rather than 6 - 8 times with the prior version. You can download the PD builds @ http://at.or.at/hans/pd/installers.html Cheers, Marc > marc mcnulty --> http://www.earphone.org

[locustream] 17yr_cicadas stream
by Peter Gena 07 Jun '07

07 Jun '07

I've just sent up a stream from my shed window in Glenview, IL. (17yr_cicadas.ogg) The sound is of the 17 year Cicadas (Cigales), which are beginning to reach their full mating chants. There is a deeper rumble in the background (from miles of wooded areas) and the more local hiss from those nearby. The next brood like this won't occur in the Chicago area until 2024! http://locus.creacast.com:9001/17yr_cicadas.ogg Best, Peter -- ****************************** * Peter Gena, Professor http://www.petergena.com * Art and Technology Studies, Sound, * Art History and Criticism, Liberal Arts * School of the Art Institute of Chicago * 112 South Michigan Avenue, Chicago, IL 60603 * ph:312-345-3570, fax ph:312-345-3565 * mailTo:pgena@saic.edu ----------------------------------------------- "I am plagued by doubts.

[locustream] 17yr_cicadas progress
by Peter Gena 06 Jun '07

06 Jun '07

Today (June 6) at 2 PM Chicago time @ 70 degrees F, the cicadas are chirping at 76 DB - peaking at 80 in my backyard. Tomorrow it will be at least 15 degrees warmer, so they should be louder. It's not unusual for them to reach 90 DB at full output. I'm guessing that they will peak in mid June. http://locus.creacast.com:9001/17yr_cicadas.ogg Best, Peter

[locustream] important news for all streamers
by peter sinclair 04 Jun '07

04 Jun '07

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...

[locustream] oggcast~ problems under osx
by peter sinclair 24 May '07

24 May '07

Some people on this list already know about or are taking part in the Locus sonus streamed open microphone project see: http://locusonus.org All people running our streaming patch on OSX seem to be having the same problem, (see message below) although the amount of time before a freeze seems to vary considerably - anywhere between a few hours and a few days- , which would seem to indicate some kind of memory leak within the oggcast~ object does anyone have any ideas about this? The same patch running under ubuntu or dynabolic woks perfectly... I havn't included the patch with this message since it contains access codes to our serveur, however if someone wants it to run tests or indeed to take part in this project (We now have a new icecast server with unlimited bandwidth and are inviting people to set up more streams around the world). please email us : support(a)locusonus.org Thanks Peter Sinclair > From: marc_mcnulty <tone(a)earphone.org> > Date: 24 mai 2007 00:18:05 HAEC > To: locustream(a)locusonus.org > Subject: [locustream] problem with pd patch in OS X > Reply-To: locustream(a)locusonus.org > > Hello, > > I have updated to the latest version of PD-extended and the latest > Locusonus patch, but the patch will run for a few hours then freeze > pushing the CPU to about 80% (just with the patch).

[locustream] problem with pd patch in OS X
by marc_mcnulty 24 May '07

24 May '07

Hello, I have updated to the latest version of PD-extended and the latest Locusonus patch, but the patch will run for a few hours then freeze pushing the CPU to about 80% (just with the patch). When I restart PD all is well for a few more hours. I am running PD and Locusonus on a PPC G4 Mac with 1 gig of RAM and plenty of drive space. The OS X version is: 10.4.9 Does anyone have the same problem? Is there a possible fix? Am I overlooking something? Thank you, Marc > marc mcnulty --> http://www.earphone.org
