pixelTANGO (pt) is a set of abstractions and externals, for pd/Gem, that
make using pd and Gem easier, faster and more satisfying. (for new pd/Gem
users)

The purpose of pt is to balance usability and ease of learning with
programmability, modularity and flexibility.

This balance means that pt will always be playing catch-up to build easy
interfaces to the ever growing complex functionality of Gem.

This means that pixelTANGO will be used with “traditional” pd/Gem
programming for and by artists to create performances as well as
contribute more specialized pt modules back to the community.

In other words it is a set of high-level abstractions that was in
discussion at the Graz conference. Particularly for video powered by Gem.
(In theory the achitecture should work with PDP as well, which would give
some of the features like smooth interpolation, built in state-saving and
OSC remote control etc..)

I hope to see you at 1:00 on saturday the 30th at Mercat de les Flors on
the second floor.
