Hi all,

Incredibly active week working hand-in-hand with the team on the iStage to reorganize and clean.  This was a great way to get hands dirty and become engaged.  Here are a few highlights from the week:

  • Helped organize and clean the iStage area, learning about
    • how the iStage is controlled (video hub, etc.)
    • how to clean the dance floor
    • how to coil and manage cables
  • Tried incorporating the basic Logic Equation with XOSC so I can use hand motion to trip the model into chaos, etc.
    • broke the patch (yay!?)
    • still working on it!
  • Started viewing archived online course:
Goals for next week:

  • Get the LogicEquation/XOSC patch working and demo it informally among the Synthesis folks on site.  
    • Create a little video showing functionality.
  • Continue taking Santa Fe course.
  • Read Ch. 3 of Sprott.  The chapter is entitled "Nonchaotic multi-dimensional flows."
Thoughts, suggestions, questions?

Thanks,
Brenda
