We are very happy to announce that Isadora will be powering the Venice Architecture Biennale from May 10th until November.

Isadora Latin Network in partnership with mexican visual artist Héctor Cruz, is responsible for the design of the immersive video projection device that accompanies the installation.

The piece "SIESTARIO" (by Argentine architects Marco Zampieron and Juan Manuel Pachue) is the winning project for the Argentine Pavilion at the Venice Biennale. 

We're already working on the Biennial pavilion. More news coming soon.

If you're in Venice, don't miss the Biennale... !

Big hug,

Hi it's been a while but I'm getting back into Izzy and using an Orbbec depth camera.

Will I still have to use my old mac (to broadcast to new mac listeners) with the depth camera or has the new version of Izzy overcome the issue with OpenNI Tracker necessary to create data from movement?

Thanks, David

Hi Donald, 

Not natively in Isadora; since this what they call a 'particle' field or a 'particle' force. It is basically a 2d physics engine that 'collides' with a shape that is formed (the yellow humanoid)

Isadora does not provide a 'collider', it might be possible to do with Python.

The other solution that I can think of is sending the image thru Processing in this case, by using something called 'Spout' or 'Syphon'

Hello you all,

I was wondering if Isadora could do that ?
(Processing exemple video)

Thank you for your answers !

@armando

woagh. thanks. hello learning curve...

@notdoc 

@notdoc It has been done by the brilliant @liminal_andy. Follow this thread

Cheers

@dusx

...and i like the promise of this solution, and I await the outcome with interest...

@dbini

many thanks. I like the immediacy of this solution, and will definitely try it...

@notdoc said:

generate text directly from live speech in real time into Izzy

 This is possible with Pythoner. I have started work on a script for this feature, but haven't had a chance to finish it yet. I got side tracked with a module used for selecting the audio device.. 
I'll get back to this soon.

@notdoc

a couple of years ago i used https://www.speechtexter.com/ in a performance situation. When it was possible to delay the appearance of the text, I would copypaste the text into Isadora, but for realtime generation of text, I began using the browser window as a video source for the Screen Capture actor.
