Alternative Silence. Kineme | Quartz Composer Stuff. Max Objects Database. Getting Started with Max 6 | William J Turkel. Max 6 is a high-level visual programming language based on the metaphor of connecting computational objects together with patch cords. It is particularly well-suited for interaction design and physical computing. Go through the links below to get a sense of some of the things that are possible with Max. Max originated in computer music software that allowed MIDI messages to be sent between different machines on a precise schedule. When personal computers became fast enough to handle audio data in real time, Max was extended with a signal processing package called MSP.
When real-time video processing also became possible, Max was further extended with a package called Jitter. The three packages were available separately until recently, and are often referred to as “Max/MSP/Jitter.” Once you have installed Max, you can open up the documentation using the “Help” menu and begin to work through the tutorials. You don’t have to recreate the Max patch shown above. Internet Archive: Digital Library of Free Books, Movies, Music & Wayback Machine. Alchemy | An open drawing project.

Icon / site. Leonardo Electronic Almanac â Jordan Belson: Films Sacred and Profane - Harvard Film Archive. October 14, 2012 Presented in association with the Center for Visual Music. The mesmerizing and otherworldly films of Jordan Belson (1926-2011) mark one of the unsurpassed high points in the history of post-WWII American experimental cinema. Defining a mode of rigorously and sublimely pure cinema, Belson’s films invent spellbinding abstract forms in order to engage and expand perceptual experience, exploring a realm beyond habitual vision and somewhere deeper within human consciousness.
Belson’s long fascination with space travel and Eastern religions guided his exploration of light as a sculptural element, imbued with celestial, ethereal and mystical properties. In now iconic works such as Allures, Re-entry, Samadhi and the aptly named Light, Belson radically transformed the abstract film as defined earlier by Oskar Fischinger and Norman McLaren into an immersive and meditative experience, opening swirling, glittering depths in the screen for the “mind’s eye” to travel.
