Whether intentional or not, I thank you for that Damon. If an Acidic Jew were a Base Player, would she spontaneously combust? :D I am about to bust a gut from laughing at the notion of “Acidic” Jews.

On my powerbook, I had to slow down the computation on some of the more complex simulations (they use a metro object--pd at times reported my cpu as high as 120 with the default setting (17" 1.67G4 PB)--is that percent!?) But in most of the example patches, the PB did just fine. Next is to try the Max implementation. Anyway, it is very cool. Since I don't do flash, this will be a great way to use physical modelling for all kinds of performance aspects. I'm thinking of some little fun experimental projects to get a better handle on it, like a video game that can be controlled by playing an instrument or moving on a stage.

I can now capture the allusive sound we all associate with Quaker hair styles and Amish female church going hat wear, but I am patiently holding out for Acidic Jewish beard and ear curl synth technology, surely to be spearheaded by Sonic Foundary. Yuc Yuc. Blessings, Damon Finally!
