      I'd like to know if there is a way to capture a still from the Vimeo stream using the same actor used in this tutorial to mix the still and moving image in the effects mixer to create a mask.

       Can you use the Capture Stage to Picture actor to grab a still image of the stage? The picture then becomes available to the Picture Player actor allowing you to use that still as a background?

      I thought It was because of my projector definition

       What is your projector definition? The higher the resolution the better (obviously) but also understand that the larger the image you're trying to project on a surface, the more visible the individual pixels will be.

      This was a very interesting session, as usual !

      I never made soft edge with 2 or more projectors, but I remember that the position and the distance between the 2 projectors has to be the more precise possible, even if Isadora let user to make changes through Izzymap and Stage Setup.
      I found in my notes this drawing which explains how to calculate the best set up, if it's useful for someone.

      Best wishes.

      Out of curiosity, has there been any development on the OSC web socket that I believe was mentioned in the session

      As of now, no. I am focused back on the main Isadora app at the moment. If we can roll that into the fall release, we will. You can read more about our plans in this forum thread.

      ah, thanks Juriaan, I missed that. I use OSCrouter a lot, which is a great tool, but still often need other bits and pieces to set up with Isadora when OSCing out of ETC world.

      My 3D ropes actor assignement.
      Not sure if replying here is the way to post an assignement, but here it is. I tried to mimik watching algae move whilst floating above them with a snorkel. Summer feelings came up.

      I've got a bit of trouble in properly "repelling" the algae with the mousewatcher (possibly I got lost somewhere in rotating spaces). Anyway it kind of works.

      Older machines may struggle a bit, mine almost hits the 50% load.

      Cheers to all of you,  (justy noticed that "all of you" sounds pretty similar to "I love you" ...  😘  )

      @mark Thank you for a brilliant session! I didn’t have time to join it then. But after seeing it through yesterday, one question emerged into my mind.

      Back in the times of Isadora v1.x, I remember reading that using excessively User Actors / Macros with heavy load video processing within them would have slowed down the processing (compared to that that they would be all in the base level – no macros or user actors). 

      Hopefully I remember totally wrong, but I would like to ask if – with Isadora v3.x – it makes any difference to compose complicated heavy duty patches using “heavy” actors inside “multi-layered” User Actors or Macros?

      Thanks in advance!

      roughness, reflection or transparency

       There is no bump map in Isadora, there is no reflections either. You can texture with alpha channel transparency.

      Here is a demo patch I created that forces an alpha transparency onto a movie file. The movie files works for MacOS 10.15.

      Kind Regards

      Hi @nandada 

      The data array is going to be very helpful for what you want to do. I would suggest you determine where your data is coming from and what form it is in. One thing about ocean tides is that there are a number of variables, for example location, time and height. So you would need to consider how to represent the data in a way that is appealing for you and your audience (you may already have that worked out). What are all the variables you want to use? There are parameters you could add such as water temperature, wave height ... so the diversity of data can be interesting to increase/decrease to recreate sonically or visually.

      You can access data on the internet through data providers such as those listed as free API sources in this GitHub: https://github.com/public-apis/public-api

      Storm Glass has a free plan for up to 50 data requests per day, after that it gets expensive: https://stormglass.io/

      It is then about your patch configuration to make sense of how to work with the data collection over time - and this is where the Data Array can be implemented.

      If you are interested I have made a demonstration patch that has used free open data from online sources. You are welcome to download it here: https://community. https://github.com/public-apis/public-apis.com/topic/6591/sharing-a-demo-patch-getting-and-parsing-data-from-api-url-s

      It requires the JSON Parser plugin provided by @mark here: https://community.troikatronix.com/topic/6503/json-parser-actor-for-macos-and-windows-public-beta

      Kind Regards

      Russell

      [EDIT] 

      Dear Community,

      Please find this new "guru session" directory with viewing and download links for all of the guru sessions. We will be updating this list as we add guru sessions in the future.

      Guru Sessions Directory Knowledge Base article.

      [EDIT] We've created a special thread where you can find all the "guru sessions" viewing links and downloads

      Dear Community,

      First, please don't post in this thread. This thread will be used to announce the URL for each of the two-hour online teaching sessions. I will post the URL for each session 10 minutes before the session

      The first session will be Wednesday March 18th at 6pm CET (Central European Time) (West Coast USA = 10am PDT / East Coast USA = 1pm EDT / UK = 5pm GMT)

      The second session will be Friday March 20th at at the same time listed above.

      I am still ramping up on how this all works. Hopefully today will be a success, but I'm sure there will be some glitches. Thanks to all who will give it a try!

      See you Soon,
      Mark
