CLAMP: FST working
FST basically is a program that enables the use of VST plugins on the linux platform using wine.
After much fuss, I finally got it compiled on my system with the help of a website found here. It was a top-hit when I googled for help compiling.
I tried it out. Synth1 seems to work fine except when you try to select presets, and Superwave P8 doesn't seem to have audio (it doesn't show up in the audio connectoin ports when I connect it to jack)
I'll see if I can do anything with this...

CLAMP: Two new books
Ms.Johns is amazing. Let me tell you why.
A week ago, I had asked her if she happened to know any good books on the history of linux. Sure enough, she comes back to me two days later telling me she just bought two new books for the libary. Today, I have them in my hands:
The Cathedral and the Bazaar by Eric S. Raymond
Rebel Code by Glyn Moody
I read the prefaces and forwards to both of these books, and skimmed the table of contents. I am looking forward to reading these two new sources!
I wonder if the library can help me find any books on specifically computer generated music... hmmm...

CLAMP: online mp3 players
tonight I just finnished creating the first CLAMP audio demo. Under 2 minutes long, the demo utilizes the following applications:
Renoise
Jack
Hydrogen
Aeolus
Zynnsubaddfx
Hexter
Nekobee
Audacity
currently, Im trying to figure out how to get an online mp3 player up and running to play demos. so far, this player seem sot eb my best bet, but there are a few others that I'm going to ry. I have no idea how to use this, but it seems fairly well documented. I'll be uploading the player to my wikispaces account, and I just hope that I will have enough space to hold all the files I need to hold.
Also, stay tuned for some screenshots I took while making the demo. We love screenshots.

Bibliography is up!
Thank goodness for bibme.org
I'm able to keep a database of my entire bibliography, which will be organized and formatted automatically. And its all online.
On another note, I've been invited to a place called dropbox, which seems to be a free online FTP tool which can sync really well to your computer.
A new possible direction: I want to be able to distribute not only my project, but the research for that project. All phone conversations, emails, websites, files, and maybe even hard copys of books all will be easily downloaded in one large zip file.
Zebra Project is coming out with a soon in a few weeks called "what could be." It will be available for download at my reverbnation website: www.reverbnation.com/thezebraproject.
Also made the first few seconds of my first CLAMP audio snippet, which so far features Renoise and Zynnaddsubfx, two pieces of software Im familiar with. You gotta start somewhere right?
