Gestural tablet control of VDMX via QC/OSC

| 30.06.2009

for everyone who missed (like me, shame) seeing this awesome control concept for VDMX by mr.monkeypresso at LPM this year, here’s a short demo video. truly amazing!

“the topside is the layer one, the underside is layer two, from left to right the whole playtime of the video, and you can draw the playing curve. The topside is a bit different, the grey squares are fix cue points, if the draw is touching it, the loop jumping back to the cue point. The horizontal circle with number, is the amount of points, if its a low number (1 or 2) you can make a fast scratch (at the video 1:17), if its a big value you can draw many points.
The vertical number is an lfo, like an autodraw, if its 0 the curve is that what you draw, if its a bigger number you need just to hold down your cursor and make a part of the loop playing.
The red points are effects, if the cursor cover (not need to hold) apply the effect.”

Cue VJ Hardware Concept

| 24.06.2009

looks like an interesting new toy:

“Cue made of a software-hardware combo turns your laptop into a complete VJ system. The Main features are a 15,4″ Touchscreen and a linear moving Knob-fader. Certain areas of the screen represent information in context with the position of the knob-fader. Alterations with the knob-fader are displayed by movement, scaling and rotation of graphics. These elements gain complexity at higher zoom levels and become touch sensitive. The visual jockey is able to mix loops, apply effects in an intuitive way as well as access a vast library.”

QuartzComposer Awards on vimeo

| 23.06.2009

Video artist offonoll just made a group on vimeo called Quartz Composer Awards and its all what it means:

“I would like to create a group of participants to post your best composition:

1 – Best audioreactive/performance RealTime: The animation and sound is one of our main feauters. Realtime compositions interacting with sounds / music.

2 – Best Design Composition; tutorial and description notes: For many of us it is greate to learn from the masters. Appreciate to those QcFiles with comments and patches well orginized and ‘Pasta al Dente’

3 – Best QC Plugins: New triks, new features, new PLUGINS!!

4 – Best Video FX: That’s it, a new or re-designed video effect.

5 – Best Video Render: A full video of 30sec with anything you like.

6 – Special mention project/web reference: Those references and people’s sites we like.

If you think that other category would fit, I will create it. I would like a open award competition and also everyboy can collaborate and decide, Also If you wish I can make you a moderator. (send me an mail in vimeo explaining what you can contribute) I am offonoll @ vimeo. So the idea is to vote with LOVE ‘I LIKE’ button. The stats are saved on the group so it is necesary to watch it through the QC Award Group.

A_ We can decide for the awards day / final day, and also how often we want to do this. Once a year or 4 times a year.

B_ Award. To participate is already a good thing.

C_ Most important thing, I would like to have every video with a .qcFile, so I would probably make a widget box or another dropbox account.

Here is the link and first of all, we all need to be subscripted.”
