Drowning New York City Online screening: Journey To The End Of Coal A project powered by Klynt Editing & publishing app. Journey To The End Of Coal tells you the story of a sacrifice. A sacrifice millions of Chinese coal miners are making everyday, risking their lives and spoiling their land to satisfy their own country’s appetite for economic growth. Your journey begins in Datong which is located just a couple hours away West from Beijing. In and around the coal mines, you get the story first hand from the mingong, the rural migrants traveling their country looking for work. At your own pace and will, you meet them and learn more about how they live in this valley of death and pollution, sometimes even literally bumping into them as they leave their home for their night shift, in the frozen winter of Northern China. Ultimately, you might discover China forbidden mines in which happen most of the accidents. First released on French news portal lemonde.fr with more than 1.5 million page views.

Max/Msp/Jitter to MadMapper In this tutorial, we will quickly learn how to send Jitter’s output to MadMapper. To share video frames between these applications, we’ll use Syphon, a framework developed by the v002 team. Note: this tutorial assumes you have some knowledge of how to use Max/Msp/Jitter. STEP#1 Download the Syphon Max object. You can get it from here STEP#2 Make a simple Jitter patch to playback a movie file. STEP#3 Send the movie to a Syphon server. STEP#4 Now launch MadMapper. STEP#5 Go to the Surface tab and make a Quad primitive. STEP#6 Duplicate the selected Quad (Command-D) and make a few copies, adjusting the size and position of each copy. STEP#7 Now that your connexion is working, minimize MadMapper, and go back to Jitter to start experimenting.

Processing - OpenVoxel Wiki Processing is a programming language, development environment, and online community that since 2001 has promoted software literacy within the visual arts. Initially created to serve as a software sketchbook and to teach fundamentals of computer programming within a visual context, Processing quickly developed into a tool for creating finished professional work as well. Processing is a free, open source alternative to proprietary software tools with expensive licenses, making it accessible to schools and individual students. Its open source status encourages the community participation and collaboration that is vital to Processing's growth. Contributors share programs, contribute code, answer questions in the discussion forum, and build libraries to extend the possibilities of the software. Students at hundreds of schools around the world use Processing for classes ranging from middle school math education to undergraduate programming courses to graduate fine arts studios.

In Max 6, Big Banner 3D + Animation Features for Jitter, Alongside Usability Improvements We’ve been waiting for some time to learn what was next for Jitter, the 3D, matrix data, animation, and video side of Cycling ’74′s Max 6 graphical multimedia development environment. (Phew!) The wait is now at its conclusion: Cycling has released details of what’s changed, as well as an extended video sneak preview above worth a full watch. Jitter users will see new workflow improvements, usability, and features that help you figure out what the heck object you need and what the heck it does. There are also new vector graphics options for the UI, styled after the way you work with the HTML5 Canvas (though not actually the Web Canvas, sadly). Aside from this, it’s worth a look at everything else. Max 6 in Public Beta; For Home-brewing Music Tools Graphically, Perhaps the Biggest Single Update Yet Go grab the public beta to try Jitter for yourself, and experienced Jitter users, we’d love to see your impressions (and your work) here on CDM, so do get in touch.

Programming Interactivity  The animals on the cover of Programming Interactivity are guinea fowl (family Phasianidae, subfamily Numindinae). Sometimes known as guinea hen, wild guinea fowl originally hail from western Africa. Featherless heads with black crests and dark gray or deep blue plumage distinguish guinea fowl from other birds. Domesticated guinea fowl (descended from Numida meleagris) make popular additions to farms, as farmers value the birds for their ability to control insects (guinea fowl dine on insects, leafy greens, and seeds). Their distinctive cries provide an easy way to distinguish the gender of the birds. Gourmands prize cooked guinea fowl for their lean, tender flesh, which possesses a less gamy flavor than pheasant, while others say the prepared bird tastes like chicken (and also a little bit like turkey). The cover image is from The Riverside Natural History.
