Friday Feb. 8 those of us who are programming or processing any data should discuss the software architecture. Here’s an overall diagram of the media choreography arch. We will update and localize it to the current RT applications. The strategy should be to write each “installation” as an instrument with 1-3 (or so) free, continuous parameters that are listening on the local network to external inputs 0 to 1. Each instrument should also have fade in/out and mute functions. One of our practical experimental goals is to discover some compelling multi-dimensional interpolations between instruments for transitions between states. For speed-up, we can instantiate subsets of instruments in their own instances of Max. One question is whether an instance should be associated with a single state or to a simplex. This is both practically and conceptually important.
