Anyone ever used Plask?
http://www.plask.org/Could be a good alternative to eMotion? Seems to be a lot more documentation on Plask than eMotion that's all as not many of seem to be getting anywhere fast with it.http://vimeo.com/27737392 -
@Skulpture thank you for sharing about plask. it's new to me. maybe if i get snowed in over the weekend i can use the time to catch up with all the new info :)

here is the particle system i ended up with, it's kind of messy. you should load in a movie and a .png for the paticles of your choice and of course you have to turn on video input, i hope this helps someone

Dear Colleagues,
I search a solution to make emotion working with isadora from several years. I had somme success with OSC to modify some parameters as "oscillation" or "gravity" in emotion from isadora but i never succeeded with "animation tool". It seems that tuio messages coming from isadora are not recognized by emotion.
After a look on messages sended by reactivision, i succeed tonight. If some of you are looking for the solution, this is how i did :First, i created the patch in isadora.
I wrote a patch in PureData wich receive informations from isadora and format for tuio protocol.
Launch Emotion. Create a particle grid (experimetal/FX => create textured particle). Show tuio tool (tools=>tuio) and mouve mouse on a stage in isadora (it works with mouse, so it could work with everything else with x/y coordinates). The data should be recognized. Click the checkbox on tuio tool in emotion and affect the datas to "animation".
All the files are attached. A video can be seen here : http://www.frvaillant.com/videos/emotion-cellulaire.m4vBest Wishes

This is very interesting. Good investigation.Could you post the rest of the files(better if you zip all of them). -
Yes of course. I'll do this on monday evening. Can't do it before.

I recreated the Pd patch and I get eMotion to react somewhat. But I have problems with eMotion crashing. So a saved eMotion patch would be really helpful to troubleshoot mine. If I can open it without a crash obviously. e84a76-emotionosc.pd.zip

I am getting on with eMotion using the method I learned from my son. You just press any button and hope for reaction. If it gets out of hand you pull the plug and start over again. I with there would be more intelligent way to do this.

Sorry for the delay,
I'm afraid E-motion often crashes. But, in the tests i did, it didn't. You'll find my files here.
Sincerely

@cypridedium
thank you for sharing. i've had a quick play and can report that emotion was ok to begin with and with no real pattern developed what i can only describe as spammy behaviour.i so want to get something out of emotion ... yet have to again have a moment of standing back from it. -
Hi all,
Sorry to resurrect an old thread, but there is a newer version of eMotion out now here:http://www.am-cb.net/emotion/It seems more stable, a little easer to navigate and I've had a little bit more success getting Isadora to transmit OSC straight to the programme without having to use Pd. Is anybody still playing around with eMotion? If so, have you had any luck with the Multi Transmit actor sending to it?Thanks,Andy -
Thanks for the update!
I will have a look into this when I get the chance. I've alway loved the idea of eMotion but was difficult to get anything going. -
Are there any tutorials for emotion?

A very old one here:

Thanx Graham!
