Program Your 808 by Rob Ricketts:

A series of informative posters detailing how some of the most notable drum sequences were programmed using the Roland TR-808 Drum Machine. Each sequence has been analyzed and represented as to allow users to re-programme each sequence, key for key.

Here’s another entry for the bus tops project, an asteroid clone, I ran out of time to give the poor bloke in the spaceship the ability to either shoot lasers or move so he is cast adrift and doomed.

This is my mix in honour of cheap holidays in Ibiza.

A small sketch that I quickly knocked up for the Bus Tops celebration of Processing.

Screenshots created using Processing video splitting code below.

(Screen) Splitting Video Footage

I suspect that there is a far more elegant way of doing this and it took me a while to work out why I kept bouncing over the array boundaries but this piece of code takes a video and splits into two separate (moving) images. Effectively it sends the data in the video file to two different parts on the screen.

import processing.video.*;

Movie splitMovie;
boolean newFrame = false;
int window_height = 300;
int window_width = 400;
int video_height = 240;
int video_width = 320;

PImage img1 = new PImage(video_width/2, 2*video_height);
PImage img2 = new PImage(video_width/2, 2*video_height);

void setup() {
  size(window_width, window_height, P2D);
  background(0);
  //load movie
  splitMovie = new Movie(this, "Database1984.mp4", 30);
  splitMovie.loop();
}

void movieEvent(Movie splitMovie) {
  //read next frame
  splitMovie.read();
  newFrame = true;
}

void draw() {
  if (newFrame) {
    img1.loadPixels();
    img2.loadPixels();
    
    //image pixel counters
    int im1counter = 0;
    int im2counter = 0;
  
    //for each line in video
    for (int j = 0; j//read pixel for each first half of video
      for (int i = 0; i//set corresponding image pixels
        img1.pixels[im1counter] = splitMovie.pixels[(j*video_width)+i];
        im1counter++;
      }
    }

  for (int j = 0; jfor (int i = video_width/2; i < video_width; i++)
    {
        img2.pixels[im2counter] = splitMovie.pixels[(j*video_width)+i];
        im2counter++;
    }
  }   
    img1.updatePixels();
    img2.updatePixels();
    image(img1,10,10);
    image(img2,15+(video_width/2),20);
  }
}

He he.
