So I have been sorting thru all of the tutorial/workshop materials that I could find, and I have been cranking out an intro tutorial, plus some sketches for the sound, visual, physical, and networking tutorials. At this point, I would love some feedback to see if people think that the work I have done is in the right direction.

Have looked very quickly at some of the materials and they look very nice. Two comments: 1. the patches are very good at identifying core concepts and explaining them. 2. But the hard thing about tutorial writing is it's difficult to show how those small concepts relate to larger artistic concerns. Of course, this isn't always necessary, and those who are motivated to learn Pd will often fill in those things as they need to. But I'm also thinking of tutorial materials in terms of how they might be used in general education (and not necessarily by, say, motivated artists). Well, I raise this as an issue and of course it's impossible to write documentation for everyone and every purpose.

Anyone up for PDDP meeting?

Yes, for sure.

I gotta say that in the processing of sorting thru all of the tutorial patches has really re-ignited by belief in the process of free software, and in this case, free documention. If I had written this intro by myself, it would be a fraction of what it is currently. What I especially enjoy is the creative little hacks that demonstrate core ideas that have come from a number of people. And that's not the drink talking ;)
