This paper was presented by Matt Wright in 2001 at the ICMC in Havana, Cuba.

This annotated version by Adrian Freed borrows some ideas from medieval glosses. It is intented to provide context and readability unavailable in the original pdf.

This header file provides extensions to the iostream << operator so you can pretty print C++ containers. It has a few interesting examples of template metaprogramming and uses some of the more modern C++ (2017) features. The repo code is evolving: https://github.com/adrianfreed/containerostream

In a recent workshop on e-textile sound for the 2018 e-Textile Spring Camp, I provided a unifying framework for analog and digital sound synthesis and capacitive sensing techniques under the rubric of relaxation oscillators.

The following pages provide context for the workshop and include links to contributions from my co-teacher, Martin De Bie. This includes pointers to various iterations of his 555 timer-based Textilo project.

This project will be expanded ongoingly with further relaxation oscillator schemes.

The entries in this table with an * were briefly reviewed in the 3 hour workshop the 2018 eTextile Spring camp. As the table shows, these are in the middle of the affordability/complexity/size axis and were selected for their potential in e-textile and wearable contexts. We had the good fortune to have Bela well represented in another workshop at the camp. Bela is transitioning to a new compact form factor which will make it easier to use with e-textiles.

The fast touch algorithm reimplemented in the library available here was developed for my FingerPhone Instrument. The fast touch library senses touch on any digital I/O pin on many embedded controllers with the Arduino IDE. This includes Atmega 8-bit, SAMD21, and Teensy. This includes most pins on most micro-controllers. A few micro controllers have analog input pins that can't also do digital I/O . The library relies on the ability to enable a built-in pull-up resistor on the pin being sensed. Here is the algorithm:

set the pin to output a LOW value for 1uS or so.

Here is a non-electronic relaxation oscillator:

Pervasive Cameras: Making Sense of Many Angles using Radial Basis Function Interpolation and Salients Analysis

Yotam Mann, Adrian Freed

Abstract. This paper describes situations which lend themselves to the use of numerous cameras and techniques for displaying many camera streams simultaneously. The focus here is on the role of the “director” in sorting out the onscreen content in an artistic and understandable manner.
