Nuevas formas de scratchear

Ahí os dejo 2 noticias relacionadas con el mundo del scratching. Por un lado una aplicacion para Max/MSP usando Ms Pinky y por otro lado Processing para el apartado grafico. La otra noticia es una modificacion del archiconocido iPod de Apple para poder usar su clickwheel para scratchear. Ahi van las respectivas noticias extraidas de mediateletipos.net

Literal [pixelsumo]:

Visual Scratch by Jesse Kriss is a realtime visualization of scratch DJ performance. Ms Pinky is used to get the velocity of the turntable into Max/MSP using a control record. Ms Pinky allows you to scratch an MP3, so the sound is routed out to the mixer, and then back into Max where volume & frequencies are analyzed. A second machine is used to output the Processing visuals. Jesse has previously created MaxLink, a method of communication between Max/MSP & Processing, used in the project Visual Scratch. [..+]

Literal [pixelsumo]:

iScratch by Shosei Oishi (a student of IAMAS Japan) is software which enables you to scratch audio files like analog record using iPod’s touch wheel. Shosei re-wrote the pre-installed open source audio play program of Pozilla to be able to scratch audio files, and works using Linux.

I got to try this at the Takeaway festival and is great fun to use, an obvious metaphor that works without explanation. iScratch will be on display in the up coming Cybersonica exhibition. [..+]
