do you know something about the old max/msp mailing list – the mcgill-mailing-list from the 9os?<div><br><br>> Date: Thu, 26 Feb 2009 15:40:01 -0600<br>> From: gtaylor@rtqe.net<br>> To: microsound@or8.net<br>> Subject: Re: [microsound] cycling74 and Max/MSP -discussion<br>> <br>> As Matt and Bruce have both mentioned, there's plenty of<br>> forum stuff at the company website in addition to Trond<br>> Lossius' more traditional values mailing list. Both may be<br>> of use to you.<br>> <br>> One of the things I've enjoyed about this list is that it has<br>> tended to focus more on a different set of issues than tools,<br>> although one's choice of tools will often involve a greater<br>> collection of issues and allegiances than mere efficiency.<br>> <br>> If you have any specific questions that involve the use of<br>> the tools themselves, Mr. O. Mr. T. would be good persons<br>> to cultivate as friends, as I happen to know they're extremely<br>> talented and knowledgeable. I tend to stay well away from<br>> this particular subject because a. I have a more direct stake in<br>> the discussions due to my relationship with the company, and<br>> b. because I like having a place to go and read that isn't just<br>> about the tools. That said, I'd be willing to try to answer any<br>> questions you may have (offline is best, I think).<br>> <br>> One of the more interesting features of being associated with<br>> a tool like Max [as is certainly the case with Pd, Audiomulch<br>> and - to a somewhat lesser extent - Csound] is that it's<br>> in wide use across various genre boundaries. While I continue<br>> to puzzle at the eruptions of the narcissism of minor difference<br>> in those various communities, it's an interesting time to be<br>> making choices about the kinds of software one chooses for<br>> one's work. I just spent a few pleasant days at the Spark Festival<br>> in Minneapolis, and was reminded again that it's a great time to<br>> be doing and listening.<br>> <br>> So, doesn't anyone want to resurrect those great old-timey<br>> discussions of "the sound of Supercollider?" :-)<br>> <br>> <br>> _______________________________________________<br>> microsound mailing list<br>> microsound@microsound.org<br>> http://or8.net/mailman/listinfo/microsound<br></div><br /><hr />UNO - Das Familienspiel für den Messenger! <a href='http://redirect.gimas.net/?n=M0902IMUno' target='_new'>Jetzt spielen!</a></body>
