Torvalds Has Harsh Words For FreeBSD Devs linus torvalds flames slashdotBritney - a simple dynamic display system
etoy.SILVAN presents the user-driven system to publicly display various kinds of information and visualizations.
Britney is almost entirely written in PHP and will be shown at tomorrow's
PHPUG event at
Kuntraum Walcheturm.
21.April 2006 18.00
PHPUG at Kunstraum Walchturm

Britney allows for creating simple choreographies from people's digital materials. Individual screens can be composed out of images, movies, slideshows or texts. Multiple screens together form a playlist which is preferably displayed with a beamer onto a public wall or canvas. The structure of britney is quite simple, which makes for an almost zero training curve for content producers to get access to the system.

WebDAV server with TwistedMatrix -- Part 1 / X where i have cleaned up the code somewhat. i can hardly believe that this is actually all you need to do:
from twisted.internet import reactor from twisted.web2.dav import static
from twisted.web2 import server, channel
site = server.Site(static.DAVFile("/Users/vincent/Desktop/test"))
reactor.listenTCP(9998, channel.HTTPFactory(site))
reactor.run() you can now connect to your localhost on port 9998.
there are a few catches, though:

which i guess somehow (involuntarily?) makes me an "artist" now ;-)


During the Good Friday encapsulation session, etoy.AGENTS built up a white environment at Kunstraum Walcheturm. Sepp Keiser from Zug could be milked for good and the crew settles down over Easter to evaluate the data and prototype the ARCANUM CAPSULE. Thanks to our most favorite test pilot Sepp Keiser!
