hi guys

i''ve srarted working with GEM this week. I'm not really satisfied at the moment but i also want to share with you the engines of my first to patches

granular_video: intrpolation between random selected frames of a video

ectoshpere: use a pic as texture for a sphere or other geos, you can play with parameters to have a noisy texture

any suggests are really, really apreciated!
I'd expecially like to apply some render effects to the geos like deformations or delay, feedbacks etc

hope you like!

sorry for my bad english

Hi franz,

I really would love to have a look at your gems! But i can't download it can you fix that or alternatively send it per mail to me? Would love that!

Do you know anything about GLSL or OpenGL with PD? sanch over at vvvv wrote a great deform patch for vvvv > just have a look at his things: http://www.sanchtv.com/
But he did it with HLSL, the directx9 equivalent to GLSL.

It worked now ... will check it out

i know vvvv but (un)fortunately i don't have XP. The patch from sanch looks amazing , but i think it's not easy to work with GLSL or OGL that way. Do you know anything similar or a tutorial for GEM to act that way? It would be great to me to apply a simple blur effect to my geos

thank you very much

I played around with GLSL with Quartz Composer (mini vvvv for mac). And i got some fun stuff there. But never accomplished something like the superdeformer.

You can download the patch from sanch, study it and just translate it from HLSL to GLSL. I have that on my todo list. GLSL resources can be find on the net, like here: http://www2.typhoonlabs.com/

To make your geos blur you probably have to program opengl, because right now there is no way to apply an effect to the whole "stage". Right now such things are only possible on textures. Or you try out gridflow! There it is possible!

I like your patches, very basic but arty. But it as well almost kills my Laptop with resources.

thank you very much for apreciated :D
you mean are too heavy patches? I run those patches on a G4 1,33 with 1,25 RAM.

I have a G4 1.25, 0,5 RAM, Radeon 9600 Mobility. When i start to play around, active blur and thing it kills my machine. But it's a problem of my machine

you should try out [pix_sig2pix~], if you are into very abstract things. You played with music before i saw, so that should do you good!
