the idea hasn't passed - its just not the right circumstances for it to flourish, see for example RMS, the Jesus of Free Software, the one who gives his life for it, the one who is basically being crucified by some people. I see stark similarities.
calm down, since 10 years cpu speed doesn't really matter anymore, and if you aren't involved in the apple ecosystem hulahoop (or javascripting - god forbid) i think m1 is not very interesting untill it allows other oses to run on free hardware.
"I'm banking on the most upvoted posts being somewhat entertaining to me, nothing more." - i do the same and i get stupider everytime it seems. i just watched for the first time on youtube "judge calls" which is basically video snippets of us american tv of judges sentencing ppl - i never knew such things existed before and i find its allowance on tv first and on youtube second pretty disgusting and inhumane.
Yes and people should try to skip definitions without context.
If you have technical document or research paper there are definitions at the start which are defined for the scope of a document or a paper. Those are still arbitrary but at least they have some value.
the absence of a digital map/route planner also has advantages in that it removes the "sterile tourist bubble" and forces one to interact with the local people.
can you give me a headstart? so your prog enables me to do projection mapping with winamp visualisers basically, right?
so if i own some discotheque with some projectors, i could use this regardless of input music in auto-random-mode all day all night?
NestDrop doesn't include projection mapping tools. But it does output a Spout video stream, so you can link the Spout video stream into Resolume or MadMapper and then do your projection mapping.
i have 4 projectors running, can i use one computer to feed all 4 projectors, with the dj's output fed to the computer, and a single 1080 geforce with projector size is 1024x768?
in case of the computer not being fast enough, i just use 2 pcs, how do i sync the winamp stuff?
Personally I think that VJ-ing is all about human intuition and carefully listening to the music. It's tricky to improvise and find visuals that match the given mood, layer realtime NestDrop visuals and pre-rendered visuals together, all while trying to keep things fresh and alive. I don't think it's a skill that can be automated with the same level that a person can pull off. NestDrop just creates visuals which respond to the beat, it's just one piece of the puzzle... Not an utter solution.
