[...] This is an attempt at emulating a simple but beautiful piece that toshio iwai showed at the last ars electronica. Basically a video is divided into different portions and each of them is delayed by a certain amount of frames. [...]

Hi and welcome, douglas.

it turns out that I was right about the originality of my ideas :)

Anyway, I’ll love to see your work when it is online (both the Trane piece and your thesis).

Concerning the workshop, thanks very much for the invitation. I don’t think I’ll be able to make it there due to work, but having seen your nice comments about the Atelier Hypermedia, I’m looking for an excuse to go there one day or another… Sure I’ll let you know.

Cheers.

Hi Jesús.

I actually built an interactive In C which was available online back in around 2000. It was the root inspiration for my piece “Trane”. I’m rebuilding it right now in Processing, but I’m having problems with the ProMidi (as can be seen on the Processing forums).

Cécile Guigny is working on building a full-scale interactive In C installation in Marseille for January 2007. She’s called it « Play In C ». I’ve been speaking with her about the piece, and I’ll be writing more about her installation for my thesis, probably when my own simulation of Terry Riley’s work is online again and I can explain how the piece works.

Oh, by the way, you’re welcome to come to the ENIAROF workshop if you want. Let me know if you’re interested.

> emulate in code art works which weren’t originally conceived for that

The most extreme example of this on my site is my emulation of Athanasius Kircher’s “Arca Musurgica” – a music composition algorithm from 1650. Here’s the relevant post:

At some point, I’ll get around to porting this to ChucK :)
