Apologies for x-posting...

It's been a busy summer--pd-l2ork
has been making big strides
towards becoming a robust full-fledged digital signal processing tool.
The latest version includes revolutionary preset_hub and preset_node
system that supports a wide range of data types as well as abstractions.
It is essentially Pd's counterpart toMax's pattrstorage
.
We've also squashed dozens of bugs and clean-ups making pd-l2ork better
than ever.

Perhaps the most exciting improvement involves Pd-L2Ork'sK12 module
geared towards elementary,
middle, and high school students. The new version has over 40
objects/abstractions, allowing students to seamlessly interact with both
Wiimotes andSARC iteration of Arduino Uno devices (a.k.a. Sarcduino
firmware) .
And this very version together with 15 L2Ork stations is being used this
week by more than 30 middle-school students as part of the inauguralICAT
K12 Maker Workshop taking place in Virginia
Tech Institute for Creativity, Arts & Technology's Studio 1. So, head on
over to the L2Ork's software page
and check out what the
latest version of pd-l2ork is all about ;-)

Best wishes,
