hello all
we want to do a 24 round the world daybreak broadcast in MAY 2014
we want to use the project to help build the locus sonus network
I think it would be really useful if we could (re) open at this point a discussion about the blocks people have to keeping their mics open and what they need in order to open them up.
I / we are looking at ways to support those issues
So eg for me: Pure Data constantly becomes unresponsive; I have spent many hours installing various versions, verifying X11, upgrading internet connection, poring through logs which I don't really understand.. I need to try with a different machine; then probably I need some piece of hardware - maybe a raspberry pi based kit - that will run reliably. for me these experiments are still worthwhile because the basic locus sonus open mic premise remains compelling and full of potential.
I also have an immediate interest in getting coverage across all time zones towards the REVEIL event.
I appreciate this is a recurring point of discussion. But can we try to take stock of where the network is now? What are we able and wanting to do with it? How can we open more mics?
Any thoughts very welcome

Dear all
We've set up a new stream overlooking the calanque bay of Niolon (close to Marseille). It's running on a raspberry pi with a mic mate sound card. Right now it's pretty lively here what with the cicadas and the bathers, boats etc.
I drilled a hole through the front wall and the tip of the mike is poking out. It needs a little more wind protection but in this weather sounds fine.
We also tidied up the patch a little and adapted it to the pi so once I've made sure its stable we can share that patch.

Hi Peter and Gregoire
I think this was one of the messages that got held up.. I was listening to the stream just after it went up: very vibrant with sounds bouncing around - really nice
Thanks for the pictures
Do you plan to keep the stream running all the time? I think it's now paused?
I am always interested to hear about how the Pi setup is working out - and will be great to have the uupdated patch when you get time - we are using the old one
Would be good also to keep a note of prices: to see how little the box can be made for. What microphone were you using?
Thanks

Hi, I just got back from vacation and I'm working on the pi box now. Something seems to have got corrupted while I was away I'll keep you posted. Yes it was sounding good with the mic mate setup and the holiday ambiance outside my house... The pi seems like a good solution we just need to debug.
Best Peter
