This posting will inform you, that I more or less completely discuntinues my weblog. That's the bad news. Now the good news: I am still into things and that started a new webzine: Digital Tools. A nice present for you will be the Interview with Marius Watz I held last year. RSS Feeds are available.

Early love of Mac and Nintendo
11 October 2006
The Macintosh System 6 - remember? The revolution on grafical operationg system now runs on the Nintendo DS. It seems to be a little bit slow, but the author Lazyone says:
"It is running a little slower than normal because it's being run in a DS emulator but currently it runs between 13-25fps on hardware and theres loads of room for improvement. It’s not exactly speedy emulation due to the lack of optimization at this point, but it’s faster than I thought it would be."

Real-World processing art? Ferrofluids
14 September 2006
This is awesome. Via node3000 I came upon this here:
Ferrofluids are fluids, that have magnetic properties. You can manipulate them with magnetic fields and get real interetings shapes. What should I say? It really looks like processing... or 3D-renderings. But this is real world.

Design is fetishism pt.5 - Delaware
09 September 2006
A music and design group from Japan. Interesting colors and shapes, all very blocky and pixelized. The music is quite experimental. I think all is well rounded up by getting in touch with music and visuals at the same time. The website supports audio and vision. They even replaced all letters 't' with the '+'-sign. They also make art with mobile phones. I want to see them live or exhibition somewhere...

Korg Electribe ES-1 to maxMSP patch
08 September 2006
I just wanted to give this patch a more prominent place in my weblog, because I think this will be a very useful hack for all the people out there having the Electribe ES-1 wanting to use this genious piece of hardware as a MIDI Controller for maxMSP.
Some technical details:
The ES-1 only send MIDI note values on the MIDI-out port. The controller only are sent by NPRN-Data. Usual audio-appications can't handle this data. MaxMSP allows to handle every kind of incoming data, so I figured out to convert the controller values into max format. The digital musicion now can make use of the Korg controller. The single sample-channels 1 - 7B changes the controller values of the knobs. In particular you can control over 68 values with that patch. Have a good time using that patch!

Light emitting textiles
07 September 2006
This one is coming from the Phillips research labs and I really wonder, where and how they integrated the picture giving computer. A broad vision of having this textiles all over could lead to good and to bad: on the one hand, human interaction and mobile computing could be enhanced by some very interesting aspects. On the other hand, we will have awful flashy advertisments everywhere, like walking and talking TVs.
