posted by contact on December 11th, 2006 -

Today GOTO10 releases the first official version of pure:dyne!

:: PURE:DYNE - EXTENDED PLAY
In this world of parallel dynes, pure:dyne has been created to provide a complete and ready made environment for artists and developers who are looking for a system dedicated to real time audio and video
processing.

http://puredyne.goto10.org

The dyne:II project provides tools and an optimized platform to try out and work on a large range of applications. The pure:dyne customization by goto10 comes with optimized and tested software such as supercollider, icecast, csound, packet forth, fluxus and much more, including of course pure data and a great collection of essential externals and abstractions (PDP, PiDiP, Gem, GridFlow, RRadical, PixelTango …). Thanks to the dyne:II compatibility all the Home Studio “classics” have not been forgotten (Ardour, LADSPA, seq24, Rezound …) and numerous essential graphics software are also bundled (Inkscape, Gimp, Blender …).

The pure:dyne project is a growing community effort maintained by media artists for media artists. It is an ideal platform for audiovisual performances, installations and FLOSS+ART workshops.

It is available as both a dyne:II compatible module, and a full low latency desktop i686 Live GNU/Linux distribution, working from hard drive, CD, CF/MD or USB key.

Key Features:
- Jack oriented GNU/Linux distribution
- Complete FLOSS Home studio solution and live performance system
- No bloat ! fast minimal desktops (fluxbox, evilwm, dwm)
- Live Distribution (works the same on CD, HD, USB, …)
