Hey Ed,<br><br>Many thanks for getting back to me about this.<br><br>The score needs to be generative but that wont stop me having a good mooch around 'Bleep':)<br><br>Many thanks for the font and the cpu freq gov too, looks like a vital piece of software.<br>
<br>Best of luck with your piece, I know the stress involved with looming deadlines, looks like it will be good though. UoEA is a bit far for me but if all goes well you should get in touch and we should see if we can get you a gig up in Huddersfield where I'm currently based. Certainly sounds like the kinda thing we're into up here.<br>

<br>I was following this thread with interest, and have been checking your 'teasers' for your upcoming project with much interest. Hope it's all going well.<br>
<br>I'm looking for a .ttf for rendering very simple notation - notes, rests etc without the need for barlines. Could you recommend one, as I have been floundering somewhat and going round in circles trying to get one that works happily in pd & GEM?<br>
<br>Also, I have recently upgraded my lappy to a dual core machine and I noticed from your screenshot that you are also a fellow puredyner. You had, in your screenshot, a rather funky looking gizmo that, if I read it correctly, measures the use of the dual cores - what is that thing!:)<br>
<br>Very best wishes,<br><br>Julian Brooks<br><br><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On 7 November 2010 12:36, Ed Kelly <span dir="ltr"><<a rel="nofollow" href="mailto:morph_2016@yahoo.co.uk" target="_blank">morph_2016@yahoo.co.uk</a>></span> wrote:<br>

</div>Perhaps, but consider this:<br>
<br>
The performer I am working with is a percussionist, and excellent at<br>
sight-reading music. However, he's not by any stretch of the imagination a<br>
programmer, and the idea of giving him command-line compilation issues to deal<br>
with, or complex connectivity between packages, would kill the project straight<br>
away. From me he needs to receive, via email, a PD patch that will just work. If<br>
other libraries are "wrapped" into PD i.e. externals are made and integrated<br>
into a future PD-extended, then these might provide some practical options for<br>
me to work with classical musicians who aren't programmers (and the majority of<br>
them are not). However, for the time being I am limited to that which can be<br>
rendered by the current PD-extended straight out of the (in)box, without any<br>
modifications to the computer it is running on.<br>
<br>
That is why I'm building a system that uses just GEM and a truetype font, which<br>
can be made into a single package and distributed to the performer of my piece.<br>
If I had institutional support perhaps I could envisage something more complex<br>
to work, but I have been unlucky in that respect. I could either give up, or try<br>
to find a practical solution that works both for me and for a non-computer geek<br>
classically trained player. I choose the latter because I want to make music.<br>
<br>
Best,<br>
