CSLHorse: on director's view on marconi ... no motion or
sound
VRMLDream: We're in an intermission now.
Mohn: if I go to Directors view
I am always missing the tool bar on
the little screen
VRMLDream: You should see the forest in Director's view.
sandyr: was that half of the performance?
CSLHorse: when I switched to director's view I lost the
CP console ...
VRMLDream: Were you getting midi before?
LanceO: yep...forest....no midi at all...
dennism: Going out for some popcorn :) Looks good
Bernie!
VRMLDream: That was about half-way, I would guess.
We're just resetting
the characters.
VRMLDream: Thanks, Dennis!
Mohn: still seeing egeus 9?)
AndrewS: no midi on norton, and same for the lack
of control with Cosmo
in Director's View.
sandyr: CSLHorse hit page up /down to get consoe
(thanks dennis)
_johnny: mohn, strike pag down you have the control
again
Mohn: johnny: tnx, but doesnt work
for me
VRMLDream: You won't see any action for a minute or two,
since we're
rearranging puppeteers. There's audio being recorded, but
you can't hear it
right now.
sandyr: I'm video taping this...but not great
quality
CSLHorse: sandyr: Thanx. Works great.
AndrewS: what does the IP/2074 mean in SF? two thousand
connections to
that IP?
AndrewS: Some smooth motion, no sound on NOrton
VRMLDream: No, that's the port number. It uses 2074
for the audio data.
CSLHorse: Bernie et al: on my CAESAR relay/copy I was getting
warnings on
eh VRML console ... couldn't "play" MIDI files.
CSLHorse: 'Twas permissions on the ".mid" files ... could
that potentially
be the problem on your stuff?
*** Signoff: Ragtimer (Operation timed out)
VRMLDream: No, that would only affect people connected to
caesar. Also the
voices are entirely separate from the MIDI.
sandyr: is the play running...or is this still
testing?
dennism: It's the play Sandy
Paulsam: I tried re-opening Netscape & going to
Marconi - got a
NullPointer exception on the Applet.
sandyr: thankx
VRMLDream: Running right now.
AndrewS: how many people are controlling the characters
now? Are tehy
located around the country?
Paulsam: Wow - I'm finally there - seeing the forest
scene with the
mechanicals.
LanceO: The mechanicals look awesome.
sandyr: yeah they do look great
Mohn: paulsam what did you do to
get there???
LanceO: Bernie...still no MIDI.
VRMLDream: There are seven puppeteers. Because of network
problems here at
the McLuhan Centre, we couldn't have remote actors for this performance.
:-(
Paulsam: We need som text narration to let folks know
what's happening -
Puck just came in.
sandyr: yes that would be great Paul
Mohn nods
sandyr: Puck is the one with wings?
Paulsam: Mohn: I reloaded Netscape and went to Marconi.
dennism: Thats Titania Sandy
VRMLDream: Yes, Titania and Oberon have wings.
Paulsam: Sorry - my mistake
AndrewS: Anyone know how this looks over a modem?
Or is everyone onm a
T1?
Paulsam: I'm on ISDN
sandyr: im on T1 or T3...at work
VRMLDream: We're continuing the audio, but we didn't have
time to block out
the rest of the show...
Paulsam: Well, why bother continuing the audio if
none of us can hear it?
sandyr: continuing the audio that we cant here
:-)
LanceO: I'm also on ISDN
dennism: there's Puck
CSLHorse: I'm on a T1 ...
_jorgen: I have to use a modem, because troubles with
the firewall.... It
looks OK
Paulsam: Puck's cool - not exactly Mickey Rooney,
hmmm?
sandyr: who is that evil looking char?

Mohn claps for italy participating via modem
dennism: Is there going to be a rebroadcast? that
would have been
fantastic with audio!
LeeG joins in the applause for Itali
sandyr: damn...i gotta go...I grabbed a bunch
of screens...put em up
soon..maybe tomrrow
CSLHorse: I'm on MARCONI ... no sound, no motion in the
director's view.
CSLHorse: Anyone see any movement right now? And connected
to what host?
sandyr: yeah even though the audio didn't work
it was way cool Bern and
all!!
shellll: i could not see anything how
is it going?
sandyr: yeah its moving
CSLHorse: MIDI files working on CAESAR now (no VRML warnings
at all).
Paulsam: I assume that's Oberon flapping around.
Mohn: I always had troubles participating
from Austria (timezones and
connections)
VRMLDream: We're recording the data stream locally.
AndrewS: So are we seeing live motion or pre-recorded
stuff?
sandyr: if anyone is around at 4PMish how about
meeting in my chat room
VRMLDream: Yes, the plan is to rebroadcast once we've fixed
the audio
problems.
sandyr: cool bern
VRMLDream: *smile* True, Paul, but Puck is a bit short
of stature.
VRMLDream: The guy with the mohawk is Oberon.
VRMLDream: Live motion.
shellll: bern i'm merrill's brother how's
it going?
VRMLDream: Thanks, Sandy!

Ragtimer: Sorry got booted...
CSLHorse: Andrew: go to TESLA or one of the CA machines
... we got the
CAESAR relay up very late in the game and I don't think it is working
properly.
Ragtimer: The animations are running well now though
shellll: i could not get anything
*** Nena is now known as ANN
LeeG: Bernie, how are the actors
synching their voices to the motion?
LanceO: shellll go to director's view
CSLHorse: One of the machines is at
http://tesla.uwaterloo.ca:80/dream/dream/
VRMLDream: We're actually doing it the other way around --
the puppeteers
are synching to the actor's voices.
LeeG: Regarding the synching of
voices, are all views completely in
synch with each other, that is all perspectives?
Ragtimer: Is there sound?
shellll: how?
*** ANN is now known as Guest79381
VRMLDream: If I undderstand your quesiton, LeeG, the answer
is yes.
LanceO: Sh:Are you using Cosmo?
shellll: is that you stephen?
shellll: yup
VRMLDream: No, it's Bernie.
shellll: hi bern
*** Guest79381 is now known as Illinoisperson
LanceO: lower left there's a button which will
give you a list of all
viewpoints
shellll: yup
AndrewS: No sound on Tesla right?
CSLHorse: TESLA's now showing motion in the forest scene
@ the director's
viewpoint, BTW.
Ragtimer: Hey where in Ill?
Ragtimer: Chicago here?
Paulsam: When Titania was asleep, was she inside the
hillside?
VRMLDream: Correect -- no sound on any machine outside of
our head end.
shellll: minz i'm gonna give it one last shot
Ragtimer: Yes very smooth once I rebooted
VRMLDream: Should be in Athens now.
Ragtimer: It looks fantastic even without sound:)
Minz: im doing that shel
LanceO: Still in forest...
LanceO: got mechanicals again
Ragtimer: No I am still in the forest
Ragtimer: Wait now moving
Ragtimer: botom and a tree now
LanceO: OK...Athens
Ragtimer: I got Eugus
Ragtimer: Temple
AndrewS: Any idea of the amount of time delay? From
the time that
VRMLDream told us we should be in Athens, I think it was probably
about 45
sec
Ragtimer: moving in to chairs
LanceO: yep
dennism: Nice effect with the lights. That is Theseus
voice right?
LeeG: Bernie, is there one puppeteer
for each character?
Ragtimer: Eugus head is at a funny angle...
LanceO: Dennis, can you hear Theseus's voice????!!??
Ragtimer: Behind chairs
dennism: No, just guessing.
VRMLDream: Yes, the lights flash when Theseus speaks.
Paulsam: Now I finally got the big move in to the
chairs and to reverse
shot toward the actors
LanceO: :-) Whew...

of possibilities. I
can't wait to see it with sound.
VRMLDream: We're going to make it a daylight background in
a moment....
VRMLDream: Let me know when you see the background change
(so we can
measure lag)
Ragtimer: Wow that was kewl...
Ragtimer: Very smooth Bernie on my end
Ragtimer: Moving now
Ragtimer: Watching Flute approach
Ragtimer: now moving so I can see wall
LanceO: I got wall

play a part
LanceO: Nice credits...
Paulsam: Awwww - I guess that was the curtain! Since

have ended, think but this and all is mended - that you did but
slumber
here, while these visions did appear.
VRMLDream: TMinxz, that could be a problem with the
java
Minz: ok
AndrewS: The characters looked really good and the
motion was fantastic;
sound would've really added alot
