Parallel v1.0 is now available for download from http://www.forwind.net.
It is a real-time graphics engine in Java using the Java 2D API. This
engine is controlled via MIDI messages received from various pieces of
equipment. This engine combines image manipulation and both generative
and deterministic techniques to create an visualisation of music and
rhythm. The software is called 'Parallel' and is available for download
from www.forwind.net.

An installer has been made for it, so installation problems should be
minimum. The capability of some form of MIDI input is essential to
operate the app. For those of you who would like to use the software,
but don't know what the javaVirtualMachine is, please download the
larger (7MB) of the two files to avoid hassles. An applet (requiring the
java 1.3 plugin) sampling the app's capabilities, is also available to
view from the site. Any feedback, queries etc. don't hesitate to mail
me…

Anyone planning to use Parallel for live
performances/demonstrations/'stuff' - please ask permission first.
…Java source files are available on request…

Enjoy!!!
