Hi guys, I'm having some issues when I try to use the mouse with chuck, e.g. 0 => int deviceNum; Hid hi; HidMsg msg; if( !hi.openMouse( deviceNum ) ) me.exit(); gives: HidIn: couldn't open mouse 0... I've tried to change the rights sudo -c 'chmod u+r /dev/input/*'; without sucess... I'm using Ubuntu 16.04. Any hints? Many thanks, Cheers

GenX ugen doc issue
by Forrest Cahoon 18 Sep '18

18 Sep '18

At http://chuck.cs.princeton.edu/doc/program/ugen_full.html#GenX, there is a reference to RTCmix which uses an obsolete link so some sort of half-forgotten documentation (redirects to http://sites.music.columbia.edu/cmc/RTcmix/). The current doc is at http://rtcmix.org/ but it appears that the makegen command is now obsolete. The closest I could find is http://rtcmix.org/reference/scorefile/maketable.php , the apparent replacement, which contains a broken link to an old makegen page. Not sure it matters, but it should probably be cleaned up. I personally appreciate the link to RTCmix because I'd never heard of it before, but it could probably be made to not be a link, or simply removed.

I'm giving a clinic on ChucK in DC, two questions:
by Charlie 14 Sep '18

14 Sep '18

hey y'all, I'm giving a clinic on ChucK for beginners here in DC in January. Anyone have any experience with this, any advice, pedagogical materials? I have a pretty good idea of the general outlines as I gave a clinic at the innovation lab at work (closed to the public though). Also do you know if I can use the ChucK logo for the event? Not sure if it's copyrighted. Cheers, Charlie My live coding page https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCkrw4sARyqsmFKkyJA_okhQ

I wrote a book!
by Ge Wang 04 Sep '18

04 Sep '18

Friends, ChucKians, artful designers, lend me your ears! For the past three years, and thanks to a Guggenheim Fellowship, I have been quietly working on a new book about design and technology, art and life. The book -- ARTFUL DESIGN: TECHNOLOGY IN SEARCH OF THE SUBLIME (A MUSICOMIC MANIFESTO) -- explores design as the intersection of art, engineering, and philosophy. It breaks down computer-mediated instruments, tools, games, and social experiences in everyday life, and elaborates 100+ tacit principles of artful design. It's all in there: ChucK, laptop orchestras, Ocarina, video games, wacky computer music interfaces, audiovisual design, and a whole lot more. Published by Stanford University Press, ARTFUL DESIGN was created entirely in the medium of a (full-color, 488-page) photo comic. This is a book for anyone who has ever been curious about how we shape technology, and how technology shapes us. It's nerdy. It's philosophical. It's a core dump of my brain in comic form. And it's coming out next week. See for yourself: https://artful.design/ The chapters: https://artful.design/chapters.html Pre-order the book now, and it will be at your doorstep next week! https://www.amazon.com/dp/1503600521/ https://artful.design/buy.html Do you know anyone else who might be interested in this book? Please share this with them! Keep on ChucKin’ -- and I'll see you in the book!

Shred blocking main shred
by Gonzalo 28 Aug '18

28 Aug '18

Hi, I'm working on a big project (www.whole-play.com), tons of classes, tons of calculations happening at various points. My problem is that some of these calculations take too long, up to a few seconds. I thought if I run them in their own shred, the main shred would be unaffected, but it's not the case, and the music stops during those processes. Maybe I'm doing something wrong. I can't post sample code because it's many classes interacting, but I thought maybe someone has ideas on how to tackle this issue? Thanks! Gonzalo -- http://dense13.com http://www.whole-play.com

chuck 1.4.0.0, global keyword.
by Dana Batali 02 Aug '18

02 Aug '18

Hi all - I'm not sure if this is more of a developer question, but I'll try here first. I'm investigating integrating ChucK into a custom app and am intrigued by the new chunity integration. The key aspects of chunity (for my purposes) are the new global keyword coupled with the ability to send/recv values (and events) from a controlling application. I have two questions: 1. does the new global keyword actually work? In miniAudicle 1.4.0.0 (on windows), i have a one-line script: global int myvar; This produces an error message: [untitled]:line(1).char(33): syntax error which goes away with the removal of the global keyword. 1a. i do see a special branch of chuck called dac-ugen-replacement which may be hold the answers to my question. Perhaps it's only a matter of the windows build being a little behind (due to the grammar change)? 2. is there a github repository for the chunity plugin? I don't see it in the standard chuck github. It's possible that the global keyword is only activated for special builds of chuck and I might be able to get to the bottom of that question by inspecting the chunity builds. Incidentally, I see that ChucK Racks addressed a set of similar problems in a different manner (by extending the chuck environment directly via PluginHost). My impression is that these two activities occurred in parallel and that there may be an advantage in combining the two approaches, perhaps ultimately producing a publicly available .so/.dll as part of the chuck distribution. Advanced thanks for any comments or pointers on these questions! And the usual giant kudos to the ChucK devs for producing such a cool thing!. Regards, Dana Batali

Hi everybody, I got in contact with the guys at patchstorage.com, asking to add ChucK to the existing platforms, and they've been super kind and added it in a couple of days... so, now it's also possible to share ChucK scripts there! https://patchstorage.com/platform/chuck/ cheers, Mario
