T-Minus...

I've got a pretty basic video mixer that works. I tried to get fancy w a 4-way slider and some special effects (jit.tiffany and jit.rubix), and that's still in a work in progress. The custodians are kicking everyone out of the lab, so i'm gonna go home and finish. And hope that my internet connection at the apt doesn't crap out. Just in case i'm w/o access for the rest of hte night, here's the quick'n'dirty penulitmate patch:

ps - i didn't not manage to fail to completely finish not completing the tutorials. just being honest here. obfuscatory, but honest. here's the crapadelic patch; more to come.

pps - i'm learning the importance of segmented patch cords and/or a bigger monitor

ppps - next goal: work w color shifting of matrices & working w matrix math and lists

#P comment 771 557 100 196617 THE VIDEO MIXER ASSIGNMENT Make a simple video mixer patch with the following requirements: • Must have at least two working video inputs. Any combination of quicktime file playback and live camera input. • Must have an interface for mixing between the inputs. • Must be able to select more than one type of mix mode (i.e. use jit.op instead of jit.xfade) • Must explore and use at least TWO video effects or processes NOT covered in class (either doing something fancy with the objects we've learned or searching out NEW objects we haven't covered.. surf the helpfiles);
