DumbMicIdear2021

from

SituationalAssessmentTemplate2017

 


 

Introduction/Definition/etc

 

Like OLPCUpdateSugarLabsOnRPi4in2021

or similar trying to use technology

that i'm at least somewhat familiar with

to improve things around me...

 

But it's with groups, and they may not,

and i may not, etc...

StandardDisClaimers

 

Body

 

Original Text

 

So with meetings becoming HyBrid

both a return to in person And

online/ Zoom

it brings the studio audience

and further self agrandizing/eGrandizing

but technology wise there are some things

 

With Virus fears/ Variants, etc

though many/most (coHorts) may be

fully vaccinated, there is a risk,

however small, that virus and other

problems return...

 

So defining the scenario/

a large (hopefully enough) pipe into the church

(pipe is internet connection/ width of the pipe

is bandWidth, and how much data/ how fast , etc)

churches/ etc may be more technological than

previously, and may have been meeting within themselves

besides renting to outsiders/ meetings

plus some services have gone online,

so maybe more online than previously,

desparate (sp?) meetings/ organizational,

funding drives, fellowship, etc...

 

So Zoom or other conferencing

hosted from the church,

in person,

a projector/ large screen TV/monitor

to see the other(s)

and/or lots of small local people

bringing their technology in,

most would have SmartPhones

like always/ as usual

and audio equipment may be non existent,

like microphones, enough speakers, etc

a conferencing/ computer lab or sorts, is what

geeks might expect, say a computer class,

or lab/ teleconferencing, online classes,

and video recording, say a video class?

so multiple possibilities, most of which

a church may not have, but maybe some

donate, idk, not up on churches/etc

 

Technically

wifi/ hardwired connection(s)

rented space

some use/ availability

 nice during some meetings to play games

and wait out the time/ keep up with things,

check weather, email, planning after,

look things up like say Stepping Stones

70th Anniversary Picnic later today,

and other events, literature/ documentation,

back when AlaNotIntCon2018 con happened

the app and showing/ learning/ telling others

and virtual meets online, perhaps visitors

coming into country/ town/ etc

showing up in person, checking while traveling,

and many may be traveling again this summer,

graduations happening, time off,

check on others, delayed plans, etc...

 

So what's the Idear?

Use the microphone in the SmartPhones

record locally (not bad in 12Step context,

say announce it ahead,

i'm recording myself

who knows what i might say,

and where it will/ won't go,

plus keeps a record of it,

say compiling your own step work,

what is bothering me/you/us now

etc,

timer (how long have i been going on/

drivel/ nostalgia/ some meeting actually

use timers and limit "sharing" blathering

on to 3 minutes/ like public comment time

in RebootingGooberment2013

PublicInPutProcess2021

etc

so variable amount

maybe some wrap up warnings,

15-30-AMinute warning

and most of all transmit the audio

to a SoundServer

(like a print and file server)

but more live,

 

Video Options might exist,

use local camera instead of moving

chairs/ seats, and other layout problems

like which are on camera, everyone required

to be, is the camera pointed towards the door,

can you get in and out off camera,

and conversely do you know who all is there

to avoid saying some things,

being stalked/ entrapped, attacked,

outvoted, shunned/ostracized, etc

video quality, say pointed out in the room,

can you see who is talking/

mouth moving, or in my case rather

blurry, not good detail/ resolution

noticed with YouTube some travel

4k video but less than SD quality

by the time it gets to me

time of day, people fragging

(aka virtually shooting)

others

(not as likely during night time like

now, competing school, outages,

etc)

 

But that uses Linux

which to me is good,

others may disagree,

but as a server type environment,

many desktop and noobs may not

know about, a lot like OLPC/

XO perhaps a big learning curve

for others, to try other operating systems,

but with older and donated hardware,

say an old laptop, get a new one,

try to reuse the old,

say old WinBlows version,

bring new life to it,

but like a G3 Mac i have

some are too old, waited too long,

and while an oldie  but goodie,

a history/ museum piece,

say i did my undergrad thesis

programming project and the old

desktop can't take that around to show,

but a laptop maybe, have to remember

passwords, and other miracles,

too like finding files/ tools, hardware,

battery(ies), matching bricks, etc...

 

JACK Audio Connection Kit

recursive?

like many gDrug names common term

and searching finds many things

JackD app is perhaps a gay porn site,

but this one is audio,

and audio server,

professional audio stuff,

people make editors

and on Linux there are many choices

only some may work for you,

Ardour, is one,

there's a KDE (desktop environment)

KEnLive is video editing

3D modeling etc

anyways

ESD

 

PulseAudio

competing but base level,

some jack integration with that,

afaict...

 

Looked up an found

PatchField is Google's

Android solution to the

JACK inspired by

or hardware limitations, etc

something maybe 2013?

and then not seen again,

would think it might continue

but seems to have died?

can't find anything about it

but haven't spent a lot of time on it,

many other conflicting things going on

and a waste of time if others aren't

interested, or i can't actually program

something, Peer Networking would

have to actually work, etc

I wrote up some things,

unlike nothing really personal

in it, so editing really required

a header on an old intro to Linux Audio

link, how it might happen,

or not,

 

Many/most projects with me don't

happen, writing the idear of it

is about as far as i get,

this one documenting

some, as have many other things

going on, and before i forget

some of the details,

reasons, etc

but long winded/ drivel

instead of concise,

to the point...

One of the problems of writing/

typing while tired, instead of fresh

in the night, dump the things

going on then can sleep

but if can't sleep only dump

not as much clarity possible,

and becomes a vicious circle/

cycle

 

JACK is complicated

as a rich/ well designed/

very capable system,

but the learning curve,

hitting me,

many example programs/

code, and some intro things

but how to actually get it working,

graphical environments help

and need some scripting/

command line too

need to automate it,

script it, save Sessions

(settings)

audio in,

out,

many devices,

say a metronome/ timer,

clock

beat,

beatbox,

lots of filtering?

noise/ background?

silencing?

amplifying?

dissecting/sampling

looping,

synth

sources / mic (input only)

recording (sink)

splitting

and basically any combination,

hard devices and soft (simulated

in software)

and then networking,

packetizing

JACK2 exists, at some level,

so versions of it,

some better/ worse for certain

applications,

know of JACK2 so don't try

making JACK1 fruitlessly

when may be coming out

in next version soon?

 

Graphical patch/

autoconnecting

plugin events

 a headphones jack gets plugged in

so assumed to monitor?

that mean kill the speaker?

either or

how about both?

hear better locally

and amps etc

distorting

clarifying

a conversational editing/ synch

meld/ merge talking

program exists, or at least started,

many are GitHub code repos

and can

git clone https://git.GitHub./SomeProg or

similar

 

and off to the races/ learning

and rabbit hole,

some good, learning

but other things going on

and off on another thing

and forget/ don't get back to,

like tired and hungry

and another page

for today...

backing up the wiki / db

but not completing

did a start with/before

to no avail

None yet, just getting the page

and then cleanup/

Discussion

 

A place for feedback on the page presented

 

what do you know of audio/ sound server(s)?

you can now remotely choose files to mp3

play out to speakers,

and more advanced stuff,

say RPi a sound/ video player

and remote control it with your

cell/smart phone/

remote control

other device...

 

But more advanced to stream

inputs to other places,

reduce bandwidth

each person would not need

a laptop

and smartphone and watching

a big screen, not big enough

as bigger room, and space out

6' each, wearing masks,

(seems safer) or not

 

What have you gotten working?

What apps do you use?

Anything interesting?

 

Does musical ability matter?

Or have to be too geeky

and not a music geek...
