Moved a bunch of shit into a folder called other_shit. This is stuff I'm not using for Burning Man but have used in the past and might need later. (In fact the ambient files I'm probably moving back out of other_shit again.) Also created very simple ambient music file which does nothing except tour the circle of fifths. 4df66b3f2bc7b57bdb6f0a5a0e7a8fb2f7a00c32 Giles Bowkett gilesb@gmail.com 6b6e0a4fa97e4823cd1f9a290e84b0b683c0596a Giles Bowkett gilesb@gmail.com http://github.com/gilesbowkett/archaeopteryx/commit/3f0a2f69e8c0c7b948d2573dd19600e845ec525f 3f0a2f69e8c0c7b948d2573dd19600e845ec525f

Finished hack to make tempo variable in real-time. So you can change the tempo while you're making music, without having to stop. Hack uses global variable. Won't be able to clean any of this up until after Burning Man. Demo of the hack in action here: http://gilesbowkett.blogspot.com/2008/08/archaeopteryx-variable-tempo.html 7ec52b8489f3d2dca316e4f7519de1ac2e4d1ea8 Giles Bowkett gilesb@gmail.com 46d1d09ef5d7077bdbc4be75c00fd40b2f3c34db Giles Bowkett gilesb@gmail.com http://github.com/gilesbowkett/archaeopteryx/commit/4d8c70db76714218e1098d3b9abf94ecd81252fc 4d8c70db76714218e1098d3b9abf94ecd81252fc

I'm committing all this strictly for historical purposes. This code sucks. It blew up on me in Toronto. Actually it didn't. But it could have. It represents serious hackery perpetrated in hopes of automating Ableton Live. It successfully automates Live but doesn't sound that great. The drums-only stuff is better. For Burning Man I'm going with drums only. And possibly adding new features tonight and/or tomorrow. So I'm stashing all this in git just in case, before I destroy it, because I need to throw it all away in order to get the Burning Man shit hooked up. To use this code, which you totally should not do, you need Ableton Live hooked up with tracks on 10 channels, and each fader level hooked to a controller on channel 0. I think I set it like controller 1, fader 1, through controller 10, fader 10, but I don't really remember. There's probably some other shit in here I broke for no good reason. 054ab08a81e66266e6ddb3aa3c3f0ada714ea764 Giles Bowkett gilesb@gmail.com Giles Bowkett gilesb@gmail.com http://github.com/gilesbowkett/archaeopteryx/commit/da6cab436faff8b8075c460d8e29516c105be61a da6cab436faff8b8075c460d8e29516c105be61a
