max? pd? ???

I started to try to use max and pure data for my thesis project last week. I drew a patch and looked at the reference and examples that from pure data external. Thanks for someone who made this wonderful software. Nearly every external that relate to pure data are contained inside. The help is really helpful and functional. Many examples and references are categorised systematically.

Since I was afraid that some problems will come up, I chose to use max. I tried to convert the patch to max. Before that, i needed to find a suitable external for max as well. I used Gem and Pmpd (physical modelling pure data) in pd and luckily, i found Gem for max and pmpd for max. Everything seemed smooth and i could convert my patch to max. But one thing i was not satified, which was the visual 3D effect . The images were in 3D shape but I didn't like this kind of visual experience to display 3D.

Therefore, i changed my mind again. haha.. I use Flash. Flash is a software for 2D. If i made my work in 3D, I need to study more about trigonmetry. Since only Flash can "satisfy" the need of my eyes, I tried to learn it. Thanks that there are cool web site that teach 3D in flash. It was really cool. http://www.kirupa.com/developer/actionscript/3dindex.htm
