How to clone our repository?
git clone relearn@192.168.1.222:git/bits-and-sound.git
--> To retrieve the files from the remote repository
git pull
--> How to add files to our Git depository
- make sure you are in the correct folder (the git folder of bits-and-sounds) --> use cd for that
- tag the files you want to add to the common git folder (so everyone can get them!!)
git add blablabla.jpg bliblabloe.jpg
- to confirm your tags - you need to be committed!
git commit
Type in a clear message describing the changes and addition you make to the repository
- add your files to our common git folder (so everyone can download them!)
git push blablabla.jpg bliblabloe.jpg
Only the files you have added/tagged will go there
If you want to play with sound files catch those from your system
/usr/share/sounds/

===========================================
update to gimp 2.8 from ubuntu
1. Uninstall Gimp from your system:
sudo apt-get autoremove gimp gimp-plugin-registry
2. Add the following PPA:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:otto-kesselgulasch/gimp
sudo apt-get update
3. Install Gimp:
sudo apt-get install gimp
===========================================
touch.data -> make an empty data file
open it in GHex
enter some color value to create a pixel, for exemple FF 00 00 FF FF 00 00 00 00
save this
open it with Gimp (in your terminal "Gimp filename.data"
you just wrote the small belgian flag of the world
open Audacity
import the file, filename.data (raw)
select encodage : U-Law, in Mono
Select Transport "play a loop" (or shift space bar)
listen to your track !
pull && push > download new data and add yours

sketch on Arduino o read analog in & serial
=====================================================================================================
Digital Drawdio --> connecting pencil drawings to all kinds of programmes and networks by dy-wen
==============================================================================
Arduino takes the resistive qualities of the black crayons and it can send it as serial data to
- pure data
- the terminal
- python
- the network
- chatbots?
- somewhere in space??
Setting up the Arduino in physical space
==================================
- take a 800KOhm resistor and make a voltage divider with the A0 as Arduino input (change the resistor value if necessary)
- put a pin in the graphite of the pencil & connect it to the Arduino with a aligator clip (this is one leg of your variable resistor in your voltage divider)
- connect a aligator clip to the drawing (onto the graphite) -> it is your ground
--> start drawing between the ground and further on the paper
Arduino & Pure Data-extended
==========================
- on Arduino, upload the StandardFirmata_slower sketch
- to connect with the Arduino in Pure Data --> put the Pduino_arduino_test.pd patch in the folder where your music patch is
- open it and follow these instructions
- Instructions to connect the Arduino data to your Pure Data Patch with Pduino
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Choose the right serial port, for the usb to connect to the Arduino (little blocks in the top left of this patch)
- Open the connections to the Arduino (analog --> 14 & 15) in the top right box (configure mode for each pin)
- you should see values changing at the bottom left - there are two send objects: s arduino_analo0 & s arduino_analog1
- put two receive patches in your own pd patch to receive these data (r arduino_analo0 & r arduino_analog1)
arduino & the terminal::
============================
Put a sketch on your Arduino that sends serial data to the serial monitor
In a terminal -> run:
stty -F /dev/ttyACM0 9600
stty -F /dev/ttyACM0 raw
cat < /dev/ttyACM0
(potentially interesting: https://github.com/todbot/arduino-serial/)
Arduino & Python
========================
http://playground.arduino.cc/interfacing/python
Arduino and Python
Talking to Arduino over a serial interface is pretty trivial in Python. On Unix-like systems you can read and write to the serial device as if it were a file, but there is also a wrapper library called pySerial that works well across all operating systems.
After installing pySerial, reading data from Arduino is straightforward:
>>> import serial
>>> ser = serial.Serial('/dev/ttyNameOfYourSerialForArduino', 9600)
>>> while True:
... print ser.readline()
