Hi everyone,

Just wanted to share a little patch I did to control _anything_ with _anything_ (but it has to go from one list to another of smaller dimensions). Just feed it something between 0. and 1.

I used it to control video synths from light sensors (and didn’t want to know what my gestures would do), but you can feed it a video matrix and control a synth, or real-time descriptors to control dmx flame throwers…

It will be unsupervised, so you will never know if _this_ will do _that_. But hopefully, it will understand something out of your inputs.

Oups sorry about that, this is from Emmanuel Jourdan _ejies_ package.

Here are the two missing files

And here is a revised version using _jit.slide_

Thanks, I’ll get my dmx flame throwers out of storage now 😃

seriously, if you have a quick demo of your use, that would be fantastic (as I have fingers in a few other coding pies at the moment 🙂 )

Yes sure!

Here is a simplified version of a patch I did to control video (and initially DMX lights) from Arduino sensors. Just click on _Fake Sensors_ and something should happen!

wow these fake sensors do bring the best of that synth 🙂

seriously, thanks for the code, it is inspiring!
