I was trying to make a patch myself that could pan grains according to a flocking algorithm but I'm a total newbie to pd and couldn't manage to put it all together. Would you mind sharing the patch? Best Wishes :) Piotr Amazing! I was trying to make a patch myself that could pan grains according to a flocking algorithm but I’m a total newbie to pd and couldn’t

Are you really discussing an acoustic piece of artwork based on a small size web photo? Or do I miss something? will Hi,

Not being fully audiophile in nature, due to my what the heck behavior at times and my budget being limited to what it is, I feel there is as a whole, a lack of concern for quality output in a lot of contemporary work. This feeling can be applied to the main concern you voiced here. Personally I have tried and am going to try better to make some good sound installations but monetary and time constraints are a major burden in this regard. But most importantly there is no one to look up to, at least not that I am aware of. I am sure I am just ill informed and/or insufficiently knowledgeable; but are there any sound artists that are truly concerned with acoustics in the "speaker" sense? While there are many artists that do use acoustics, noise and all surrounding variables as a texture in their work are there any that are concerned with what you are mentioning? My thinking can go as far as to say: there's simply no role models. Mentors are lacking! Another thing that I feel is lacking from a quality point of view, is digital use in art as a whole. Some do it well, others suck at it. Bad resolution displays, pixels abound etc etc; but these are other concerns which may not be of big bother to most people. A whole other can of worms!
