Death's-head Hawkmoth
A project by Emma & Parham
To run Muscovaudio you need to have the following python libraries:
- Pygame (that requires SDL)
- pyOSC
- numpy (part of pygame requires numpy)
- python 2.7
Use pip to install numpy and pyOSC. Follow instructions on Pygame's website to install it for your platform.
Muscovaudio was developed against python 2.7 and to get all the dependencies to work on Mac OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard) do as above but to install Pygame you can read the instructions here: http://www.shodanproductions.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=67&p=272#p272 (found on http://pygame.org/wiki/MacCompile).
You will need Python 2.7, Pure Data and Simple Synth (or the equivalent).
1 ) Downloada and unzip the latest zip from https://github.com/parhamfh/muscovaudio/tags
2 ) Open Simple Synth.
3 ) Open Pure Data and launch the pd patch called "main.pd".
4) Make sure that Audio and MIDI is on in Pure Data. Go to Preferences/MIDI Settings… and choose Simple Synth as MIDI output.
5) Run python muscovaudio.py from the terminal and enjoy the craziness!
You can draw lines using the mouse, thereby making balls collide. When the balls collide with each other, you can hear sounds. :)
