Hi OSC service discovery guys,

Dear Ozoners and media choreographers:

I propose we dedicate most of the Jan 12 Wed TML meeting for a discussion of the 2010-2011 Ozone system.   End-users -- artist / experimentalist composers -- are welcome and vital, but this discussion will run at the level of experts and system developers   We should allocate 5:15 - 7:00 for this.

I'd like to set the creative and research context so we can all prioritize the development effort appropriately to the lab's needs.

I'm not sure what you mean to suggest here. What are you imagining we would
"incorporate" these techniques into, libmapper itself?
Calibration is an interesting problem deserving of more attention. Note
that the hipper devices store calibration information in the device
(e.g. wiimote, nunchuck).
This makes the calibrated device portable. Of course some calibration is
associated with the location (e.g. lighting, AGC, white balance, etc.
for video) other
with a paricular person. My experience is that the date
management/configuration issues are harder than the calibration signal
processing.
