<div>Keep in mind also we've set aside the second half of the next Dorkbot meeting for this discussion (8:30-9:30 on Weds Mar 4).<br></div>

<br>a good way to do this is to set up a server in the exhibition space that receives inputs from various devices (camera, microphone, text messages) and then outputs an xml stream, or OSC possibly, via one of it's ports over the network (wireless, got some latency, but no wires). Then a huge variety of computer based pieces could receive that data and react to it.<br>
<br>The question then becomes what software would allow this to happen? The only programming language I'm familiar enough with that could do this is Processing ( <a href="http://processing.org/" target="_blank">http://processing.org</a> ) - I know that it can send and receive network data, and can take camera, microphone etc. input. If anyone else reading here has another idea of how to go about it (maybe Pure Data?) then speak up!<br>
<br><br><br>anyhoo, that's my two cents.<br><br>Cheers,<br>-Joe

<div class="Ih2E3d">I would like to create a group for Human Communication as a tribe (or subgroup of a tribe). This tribe will build peice of art that are meant to communicate or invite direct manipulation from the exhibtion guests. Peice could use: text, speech, touch, facial cues, hand signs, etc.<br>
<br>I did not know to do the wiki so if some one wants to add this that would be great.<br><br><br></div>........................................................................<br>.........dorkbot: people doing strange things with electricity..........<br>
