A Color-Gradient-Sliding-Puzzle in Processing
Posted by Nikolaus Gradwohl
I made a sliding puzzle game in processing. What makes it a bit different from all the others is, that there are no numbers on the pices but you have it to sort the fields by color-gradient.

Using Mbrola-Voices with the Processing ttslib
Posted by Nikolaus Gradwohl
To use mbrola-voices with the processing ttslib make sure you have installed the newest version of ttslib (version 0.2 at the time of writing). Download the mbrola-binary for your system and make sure the binary is named mbrola (or else freetts won't find it).
Make sure you can live with the mbrola-licence.
Download the us voices you want to use and unzip them to the directory where your mbrola binary lives.
on my linux system the content of the mbrola directory looks like this
./mbrola206a-linux-ppc
./mbrola-linux-alpha
./mbrola_linux_libc5
./mbrola
./mbrola-linux-i386
./mbrola302b-linux-ppc
./us1
./us1/us1mrpa

./us3/TEST/diphone.pho

in the setup method of your processing sketch set the absolute path to your mbrola directory as a java system property. Now the name of the mbrola voice you want to use can be added as a string parameter to the TTS constructor
import guru.ttslib.*;
TTS tts;
void setup() {
System.setProperty("mbrola.base","/path/to/mbrola/");
tts = new TTS("mbrola_us1");
}
void draw() {
}
void mousePressed() {
tts.speak("Hello! I'm a talking processing sketch!");
}
gekko in 3d
Posted by Nikolaus Gradwohl
I transformed my gekko from a pencildrawing to a real physical object. I converted the drawing into a 3D object using blender and then printed it on my makerbot. This is my Day 20 project for 30daysofcreativity

this is my Day 18 project for 30daysofcreativity. I made this (and many, many more drawings) while waiting in a delayed airplane to get a start-slot on a very windy day :-/
Boardingpass Paperplane

This is my Day 17 project, which gets posted a little late, because i have been on a scrummaster-training the last 2 days. But I have been very creative these two days (ask my trainer :-> )
Here is a paperplane i made from my boardingpass
