Pure imagination using the Echonest API.

National Weather Service REST API

Now using this API with Max and Pd. See the Internet sensors projects:

A ‘mini’ version of the Google domain ping synthesizer from the internet-sensors collection (Using the Mashape API). This one runs in Web Audio, using the Web Audio Playground with OSC.
Looks like a card game. Anyway it sounds cool. Doesn’t have the panning of the original, but it has an organic sound due to portamento in frequency changes, and more ‘beating’. Here’s a short excerpt.
Another example of Max controlling WAP https://reactivemusic.net/?p=6193
https://github.com/tkzic/WebAudio
folder is: WebAudio/osctest/
update: you can run an online version of WAP Web client at http://zerokidz.com/wap/index.html – If you load this page, skip to step 3.
1. run the node webserver in WebAudio
node nodeserver.js
(it will run on localhost port 8081 – for example http://127.0.0.1:8081)
2. In Chrome web browser, run: 127.0.0.1:8081/index.html
3. From a terminal window, go to the osctest/ folder and start the server by typing:
./wapOSCserver-ping.rb
4. Load the Max patch:
wapPingTest.maxpat
5. In Chrome, click the OSC button – the ruby server should open a socket connection
6. Also in Chrome, load the patch: ping2 (note that there is a json copy of this patch ping2.json that can be pasted in, if it doesn’t show up in the menu)
6.5 In WAP, Click the square buttons on the 5 Oscillators to start them playing. You should hear sounds at this point.
7. Now back in Max patch – click green toggle to start polling and you probably want to increase the polling rate to about 50 ms instead of 1000 ms
update: here’s how to produce a sine wave: https://reactivemusic.net/?p=6574
General consensus: scriptProcessing is not robust enough to process multiple signal chains.
A beautiful player-piano. Music in time and frequency domains.

This fork adds the following features to Chris Wilson’s Web Audio Playground:
Try it out at: http:zerokidz.com/wap/index.html
For optimum results try Chrome on Mac OS. But it does work in other browsers.
Patch file format is JSON. Patches are reloaded by firing gesture events which created them.
Source code: https://github.com/tkzic/WebAudio
sub-folder: osctest
Note: You can either run a local web server, using nodeserver.js and index.html – in the WebAudio folder – or use the online version of WAP as described here.
1. Load WAP in a Google Chrome browser using the following URL: http:zerokidz.com/wap/index.html
2. In WAP, load a patch called: delay-thing.
Note: If the patch doesn’t exist you can paste it in by opening the file osctest/delay-thing.json in a text editor and copying the text. Then click paste in WAP and paste in the text. Then make sure to save it in WAP by typing in the name “delay-thing” and clicking the save-as: button
3. In a terminal window, go to the osctest/ folder and start the server by typing:
ruby ./wapOSCserver.rb
4. In WAP, Press the OSC button – the ruby server should acknowledge with the message: “WebSocket connection open”
5. Open the Max patch: wapOSCtester.maxpat
6. In WAP press the play button on the Oscillator module (you should hear sounds)
7. In the Max patch drag the slider on the left to control the oscillator pitch. You should hear the sound change and see the sliders move in WAP.
The html side of the connection is done in js/socketsOSC.js
look at the function: connectOSC() – which gets triggered by the OSC button in index.html
Incoming messages from Max (via Ruby server) are parsed in parseOSCMessage() which figures out how to set appropriate values for the audio objects in the DOM.
There are currently no acknowledgement or error messages being returned (at least I don’t remember doing this)
At html5 Rocks
Open source javascript wrapper for the web audio API.
by createJS
http://www.createjs.com/#!/SoundJS
This is a tweak of a demo program by Boris Smus from http://webaudioapi.com
The audio is generated in the web browser using the webaudio API. Oscillator frequency is being controlled by an iPod touch running touchOSC.
A ruby program is running in the background. It starts 2 servers, one to handle Osc messages from the iPod. and a websockets server which passes Osc messages to the web client in the browser, which parses the data and sets oscillator frequency.
local source files in tkzic/web-audio-api/webaudioapi/content/posts/oscillator-ws
(these are for my local files – source has not been published yet) Please contact me directly for more information about this code. Or have a look at a very similar example at: https://github.com/tkzic/WebAudio
1. run the node webserver in tkzic/
node nodeserver.js
(it will run on localhost port 8081 – for example http://127.0.0.1:8081)
2. In Chrome web browser, run: http://192.168.1.104:8081/web-audio-api/webaudioapi/content/posts/oscillator-ws/index.html
The following screen will appear:
3. From a terminal prompt run this ruby script (in tkzic/web-audio-api/webaudioapi/content/posts/oscillator-ws)
./wapOSCserver.rb
4. In webpage in Chrome, click the sockets button – the ruby server should open a socket connection, also click the play/pause button to start the oscillator
5. In touchOSC point the host to the ip address of the laptop (ie., 192.168.1.104) running on default ports, (out 8000, in 9000)
6. In touchOSC run the ‘simple’ layout and move fader1 to change the pitch of the oscillator
Note: You will probably also want to open the developer javascript console in Chrome to see what is going on.
Need to clean up the ruby server code to handle error conditions, ie., network interruptions, missing files, browser incompatibility, etc.,
