Trimester 1

Assignment for next week/ 06/10/2009

Start with a single image -- this is your "input". Make a copy of your file and call it "image0001.png" (or "image0001.jpg") (remember to zero-pad your file names). Use ImageMagick's commands to alter this image in some way, transforming it, extracting some portion, and give the result the name "image0002.png". Continue in this way, each time using images already created (using image0001 and/or image0002 to make image0003, and so on). Finally, use ImageMagick to assemble the sequence of images into an animation. Save all of your commands from the terminal to a single text file, and save it as something like "image.sh".

Assignment for next week/ 12/10/2009

Produce a "song" using sox & python loops. Produce two "songs", one with "sequential loops", and one with a nested loop.

Sequential loop:: [song.wav]

#!/usr/bin/env python

from os import system

for i in range(3):

    system("cat 01.raw >> song.raw")
    system("cat sweep_down.raw >> song.raw")
    system("cat beep.raw >> song.raw")
    system("cat ch.raw >> song.raw")
    system("cat 02.raw >> song.raw")
    system("cat ch.raw >> song.raw")
    system("cat song.raw >> song.raw")
    system("cat sweep_down.raw >> song.raw")
    system("cat 02.raw >> song.raw")

system("sox --rate 44100 --bits 16 --channels 2 --encoding signed-integer song.raw song.wav")

system("rm song.raw")

Nested loop:

#!/usr/bin/env python

from os import system

for i in range(3):
    system("cat 01.raw >> nested.raw")
    system("cat 03.raw >> nested.raw")
    system("cat sweep_down.raw >> song.raw")

    for i in range(3):
        system("cat 02.raw >> nested.raw")
        system("cat 04.raw >> nested.raw")
        system("cat ch.raw >> song.raw")

# print("goodbye")

system("sox --rate 44100 --bits 16 --channels 2 --encoding signed-integer nested.raw nested.wav")
system("rm nested.raw")
system("play nested.wav")

Assignment for next week/ 27/10/2009

To be completed after the break: Create a "command-line movie" using ImageMagick?, sox, and ffmpeg. Reading: Chapter 1 of ThinkPython.
