I felt much like stephan, in that<br>if I wasn't live coding I wasn't welcome. this idea was, of course,<br>wrong - I had "prejudged" the chuck community prior to actually<br>checking it out for myself.

To me it would be quite sad if some single dogmatic way of "playing" ChucK would be established.

<br>Yeah, exactly. Some people are using ChucK to make a Monome controler talk to Ableton Live, I've been using it to turn gaming devices into MIDI controlers, it makes a great "glue" between aplications and devices. I think that aspect of it will only grow with the Wii interface rumoured and maybe future suport for sysex-MIDI.
