I'm game! I haven't been that active in the tune-making ChucK, but I've been meaning to have a go... That's a cool project! :) /Stefan On Tue, Oct 27, 2009 at 4:14 PM, john saylor wrote:

Maybe Les feels called to curate this? a chat-room that could be used to determine what pieces appeal to a audience and which ones are less popular?

is this a popularity contest?

this is a great idea, and since i'm not actually doing anything to make it happen [other than this note], i don't get much say. but what's wrong with just opening the door for people to contribute [regardless of a curator's opinion]? if someone wants to pull a sub grouping of submissions that appeal to one group or another- who cares? but i'd like to suggest that the door is open to all contributors, say within a certain time frame.

i have worked on the microsound list with the projects there, and the 'open door' policy has been pretty successful. [better karma too ...]

i'm just sayin ...

No, not at all.

I was just getting the impression that online compilation was a sub-set of all such tweets.

I suppose I was mainly talking about myself; I always find it hard to judge my own work so I tend to trust on what others think is nice.

You are right. This is my fault for not writing clear enough.

I anticipated that some people would send in -say- 10 variations on a theme. This happened with the 80 character game (with great results!). If we are presenting this to the outside world with a flash player like in the link I'd say it would make sense to pick the 1 or 2 best ones out of a set like that. That process would be a bit like a popularity contest and in that case I see no harm in this.

I'm absolutely not advocating excluding anyone, I'd just prefer -say- 25 tracks by 20 artists over 60 tracks by 20 artists with some people over-represented. IMHO everyone who send in a piece should have a spot. I also think that if you make 50 pieces in a especially inspired night you should definitely share all of those but I'm not so sure it'd be a good idea to feature all 50 in a compilation of various artists.

Absolutely. Sorry about representing my thoughts so unclearly; I hope we are on the same page now?

Yours, Kas.

hey these seeem good 2009/10/27 Kassen :

140 characters max.

 I'd say it also has to compile and run in the latest default ChucK download without extra flags, which sadly excludes CNoise but also prevents sneaky trickery like recompiling ChucK with a Amen break in the "special" samples :-).

good- in the interest of avoiding problems, it might be good to put an explicit version number, or a number that the version has to be greater than.

Errors/warnings and eventual crashes seem perfectly fine to me.

the only thing i'd suggest is that the entry is posted to this mailing list sometime before a certain date [or maybe 'tweeted' to a certain account] ... and i don't know about web space or whatever. if you wanted to make this a join chuck/microsound project [and everyone was on board] we might be able to host it on the microsound site [which is all set up already]. i'm not saying this is a particularly good or bad idea, but just offering it as a possibility. there will be some work involved with gathering up the entries, and putting them on the web, but that's later. again, i think this is a great idea- nice work!! -- \js [ - . . . ]

Hmm... interesting... "crazy robot dance!" one-liner has a for(;;) in it. Seems that it used to work in earlier chuck versions :). Szilveszter (Hillaby) 2009. október 28. 9:51 Szilveszter Tóth írta, :

So we have some basic content for our twitplayer :).

What's the deadline anyway? (I don't promise anything, my classnames are usually more than 140 chars long and still no sound :D).

Look at what our esteemed colleagues / mortal enemies did; http://supercollider.sourceforge.net/sc140/

Way cool stuff. Should we try our own version? I'm sure we could get the webspace at EM and I'd know a good flash designer who could make us a player.

Who's game? Maybe Les feels called to curate this? Les has his radio show with a chat-room that could be used to determine what pieces appeal to a audience and which ones are less popular?

Yours, Kas.
