You are to invent a patch that does something concrete and creative. Ideally, this will involve some sort of transformation or compositional effect or process. Your patch will be based on one or more soundfiles, or an audio input if available. The interface should be clearly labelled and documented, although these elements should not prevent clear reading of the patch itself. You may wish to hide elements, but don't, in doing so, obscure workings of the patch required to check whether it is fully operating.
You may wish to use this exercise as a prototype for your final submission (week 12).
Initial submission will be by the Friday of week 7.
You must inform the relevant member of staff of your website address.
You will provide a link on your web-page/site to the relevant downloadable document(s). These will be in the form of a MaxMSP patch, available in both binary and text form. The options must be clearly labelled. Also, on your site, you'll provide details of what the patch does, what components it uses, and what resources the user requires to operate the software.
Include a screen shot if you can. (On a Macintosh, you can do this by pressing shift-command-3, opening the resulting 'picture' file (it'll be on the desktop), saving in a web-friendly format, such as JPEG and uploading this to your website. The code to display an image is:
<IMG SRC="the_URL_of_your_image.jpg" ALT="screenshot of my patch" WIDTH="100" HEIGHT="100">
.)
I'll attempt to check the documents out and let you know if there's a problem. If there is a problem you may have to consider submitting on disc, etc.
You will be permitted to update your patch/page and resubmit the assignment in week 12 after which all assignments will be marked, finally. Any changes you make following initial submission must be fully documented otherwise it will be assumed that you haven't made any.
