changed: - **_PixelTANGO_** http://www.tot.sat.qc.ca/eng/pixeltango.html PixelTANGO (aka “pt”) is a set of high-level abstractions and externals, for pd/GEM, that make using pd and GEM easier, faster and more satisfying. The purpose of pixelTANGO is to foster creativity in the area of live visual performance and make open-source software more accessible to visual artists. PixelTANGO is developed by Ben Bogart @ the Société des arts technologiques in Montréal, Canada. The purpose of pt is to balance usability and ease of learning with programmability, modularity and flexibility. This balance means that pt will always be playing catch-up to build easy to use interfaces to the ever growing and complex functionality of GEM & PD. As a resuly pixelTANGO will often be used with “traditional” pd/Gem programming for and by artists to create performances/installations as well as contribute more specialized pt modules back to the community. **_Lecture Content_** - Demo Patches - Video Inputs - Layer Effects - OpenGL Effects - Layer Types - Parameter Interpolation - Parameter Presets - Preset Animation - File Access - Introduction to the PixelTANGO Architecture - Layers - Header Modules - Footer Modules - Modifier Modules - General Modules - Future Functionality <img src="PixelTANGO.jpg" />
