Interface Update 3 - Mike Lamming







Successfully managed to link both the audio and video patches together.


Inputs shown from Sam's Patch.

Sam's audio patch fades between different soundscapes based on the screen the user is currently on, and which they intend to move to. There are 6 ways to return to the Main Menu screen, 2 ways for each of the charms, and 1 way for each of the Themed Menus. There is also one button to return to the overall Installation Menu. This resulted in 17 different combinations the user could move between, and so i created 17 inputs to the interface patch.

Inputs shown from Ian's Patch.

Ian's video patch contains 7 videos, so the inputs were divided between the screen the user intends to move to.

Currently using the default video files in the max folder until we get the videos made up tomorrow.

Menu Images - Sam Eaton








Here are the three menu images for use in our installation. Unfortunately as we do not have access to images of our actual charms I have substituted them for similar images for now (i.e. a piece of rowan bark in place of the rowan loop. The images are now ready to have their background videos placed underneath!

Link Up - Ian Bell

Have finished creating both patches, one for each of the two screens. After testing if the audio and video were compatible on monday the 26th of October (yesterday) I went through the patch, making sure everything worked properly. Both my Video patches, and Sam's Audio patches are now complete and fully compatible.

Interface Update 2 - Mike Lamming


Created inputs taken from the Lemur, put bangs in for a visual conformation for myself while i tweak it. Made a 'button press' mini-patch for each time the user presses a button, also created an option for it to be muted. Written a brief summary for each of the inputs and its job for ease when linking the audio and video together.

Attempt Two Left Hand Screen - Ian Bell

I decided to expand upon my patch for the monday demonstration. Now, the entire jitter side of the project on the left screen is now works properly. To create the right hand side, all that needs to be done is duplicating this patch, changing a few files names and which items are sent, and then the Jitter side of things is completed.
