Re: [Yasmin_discussions] networking 5.0

Dave
I generally appreciate what you have recounted and I especially underscore
your final paragraph, which by the way. sort of addresses my wrapping it
up project (has been unsuccessful in grant funding) and remains out of
reach as an realizable soundwork project. I have been conceptually working
through this with friends. Ideally it's in realtime and interactive. From
person-to-person, who upon achieving UTC-based timing, results in outflow
signals which are to be conjoined with Lat/Long syncing via mesh network.
Contributing participants- in the multiplexing of their collective data
would used xyz U(tc) film sensors- and rely on the final mix down using the
Arduino and XBee RF modules for netout purposes. The four data files are
run through a audio editing software for compressing all into one final
file that can be uploaded to Sound Cloud-as ongoing audio and video
documentations-and being the basis for renewed funding.. Overall
communicating uses wikis throughout the project. Specific partnering .be
workshops would be relied upon. Sooo, trouble shoot construction and
software issues, and yet, conceptually-related net(s) remain a challenge
considering adjacent to/with what/who?
