the easiest way to send/receive OSC i know is using python. It gets as
simple as this:
import osc
osc.init()
osc.sendMsg('/blah', [6.9999])

I wish more explanations and manuals would be like your mail here. Looks like some serious fun and very acessible; I think I'm going to have to tinker with this.

Thanks a lot!
