Announcing the completion of phase 1 of my latest (grand) project:

ON THE SIXTH DAY (2008)
  A Trilogy of Sonic Environments for realtime Csound5
Environment 1 - I
Environment 2 - We
Environment 3 - Family

These are all really instruments, or "structures for improvization." The 
third one (just finished today) blossomed into a very large project - 46 
alternate versions - which makes for 92 performance files, as each has a 
Lettuce (.exe) version.

All materials, including sample .mp3's at: http://www.arthunkins.com.

These were all conceived with the idea of morphing them into Activities for 
the OLPC. That is phase 2 of the project, and I'll be looking for lots of 
help here - especially in regard to making GUIs in Python (Python and Linux 
are both totally new areas for me).

One opening question: I've been running these - realtime - without incident 
on my AMD Athlon, 1.4GHz, 480MB RAM, Windows XP Professional desktop, with 
an average CPU usage (according to the particular version) of 20-27%. SR is 
44100 (the minimum possible), stereo. What's the likelihood of these running 
on the OLPC?

(All suggestions, rants, whatever, welcome.)
