 time, at a particular frame-step, my generators generates (and pop out) for instance 2 values (if it gives 2 channels). Ok.
Everything here is time-wise.
So the combine doesn’t make sense because if I wanted to have two values at each frame turn, I’d “just” need an operator that creates (and/or process) 2 channels, and I’d have my two values, end of story.
I have a generator generating 1 channel, another one generating 1 channel, I join them and it gives 2 channels… wrong. Join, as far as I understand, take for instance 2 channels, and append a set of values of the first to the other, time-wise… one set after the other etc. With many different ways options to do that.
gosh. this is not reverse back my understanding of Max, but extending it to very different concepts.
Probably best to learn the TD lingo first, that should help getting the correct answers to your questions. In TouchDesigner land we talk about channels and samples in a CHOP.
Combining CHOP data can happen in many different ways, so it’s hard to say which one you are looking for at this moment. If you simply want to combine multiple channels from different CHOPs into one CHOP you can use the Merge CHOP.
Thanks a lot @nettoyeur.
I’m into all docs, and snippets.
I’m sorry if some of my questions are very newbie.
Yes for the “flow of values” meaning. A single channel is a set of samples popped out one at a time, at each frame. This is where I was confused.
The Time Slice (omnipresent) feature also helped me to understand.The American Film Institute (AFI) selected this year’s top 10 movies and TV shows and True Blood was selected with the honor of being one of the Top TV Shows of 2009! The AFI Awards 2009 records the year’s “most outstanding achievements in film and television,” according to the organization and honors the creative ensembles in front of and behind the cameras.
The films and TV shows were selected by a 13-person jury including scholars, film artists, critics and AFI trustees. Two juries — one for film and one for TV — met for two days of debate at the Hyatt Regency Century Plaza Hotel. Among the film jurors were director Norman Jewison, Oscar-winning screenwriter Dustin Lance Black (“Milk”), Leonard Maltin and Claudia Puig of USA Today. On hand for the television selection were writer-producer Neal Baer, Brian Lowry of Variety, writer-producer David Milch, actress CCH Pounder and John Shaffner, president of the Academy of Television Arts & Sciences.
The 10th Annual AFI Awards will be held at an invitation-only luncheon gala at the Los Angeles’ Four Seasons Hotel on January 15, 2010.
Once again congratulations to True Blood, Alan Ball, the creative team, and the actors and crew for bringing onto the small screen one of the best shows to come out in years!
Here is a montage of the AFI winners for this year with True Blood featured at the 2:03 mark.
Nathan Barr, the accomplished man behind the exquisite music in True Blood attended the Hollywood Music in Media Awards on Thursday, November 19, 2009 held at The Highlands in Hollywood & Highlands / Kodak Theater Complex in Hollywood, California. Nathan was nominated for two awards: Best Original Score – TV (True Blood) and Best Original Song – TV, “Take Me Home” (True Blood) and he won in the Best Original Score – TV category! Congratulations Nathan for the well-deserved reward and recognition of your marvelous work!
The Hollywood Music in Media Awards (HMMA) is a live red-carpet style awards show that recognizes and honors the talented individuals responsible for music in visual mediums, and the music of both mainstream and independent music artists worldwide for their compositions and recordings in all forms of media. It is the first music awards event to recognize and honor excellence in music supervision as well as the only red carpet style awards show in the world that includes a comprehensive interactive industry conference (MIMI Conference) which is designed to inform, educate, present opportunities and further the careers of all conference participants. Moreover, the HMMA does not select nominees or winners based on record label affiliation, sales, radio play or popularity. It was created to equally recognize mainstream and independent music artists worldwide for their original music recordings.
For an institution that claims to award the best in television, the Academy of Television Arts & Sciences sure does lose some of its credibility by notoriously overlooking anything that could be classified as a “genre” show. True Blood became another victim of this discrimination when the nominations were announced for the 61st Primetime Emmy Awards.
Year after year, television critics compile a list of “Dream Nominations” before the official announcements are made, clinging to their hope that, finally, the most deserving will be praised for the outstanding work they do. And then, after the nominees are revealed, critics and fans alike express their outrage at the talent that was snubbed and the mediocrity that was recognized.
[They] can take you to a different place, immerse you in a different world, show you something new.
That’s definitely how True Blood makes me feel. So why can’t the Emmy voters see that, too? The show was overlooked for Best Drama Series, and what’s more infuriating, Anna Paquin was ignored in the Best Actress in a Drama category.
We honestly can’t think of any other actress who could conjure the perfect combination of heroism, immaturity, toughness and vulnerability required for the role of Sookie.
Instead, the category she should have occupied includes Elizabeth Moss from Mad Men (I think we ought to give them that one — Moss is brilliant in Matthew Weiner’s compelling 1960’s drama); Kyra Sedgwick from The Closer; Glenn Close from Damages; Holly Hunter from Saving Grace; Mariska Hargitay from Law & Order: SVU; and Sally Field from Brothers & Sisters.
The last five are “perennial” nominations, meaning they are going to be nominated every year, without fail, because they are so revered in the entertainment community. Even when they don’t have a great season. Even when new, worthy actresses enter the race. It just seems like utter laziness to me, as though the members of the Academy don’t take the time to watch the episodes submitted for consideration and then objectively choose nominees based on merit alone.
True Blood did receive nods in a few minor categories: Outstanding Art Direction in a Single-Camera Series; Outstanding Main Title Design; and Outstanding Casting for a Drama Series.
Small victories are better than none at all but we won’t even get to see these awards handed out during the telecast on Sunday, Sept. 20. They have a separate ceremony for the Creative Arts Emmys, the results of which can be found online afterwards.
Even though the Emmy nominations have disappointed, the Golden Globes will follow in a few months. They showed last year that they weren’t afraid to honor the great work of Anna and everyone at True Blood!
The nominations will be announced on July 16, 2009.
Voting for the 25th annual TCA Awards,will be conducted by the group’s over 200-plus member critics and journalists and the winners will be announced on August 1, 2009 at The Langham, Huntington Hotel and Spa in Pasadena, California.

True Blood has won the Lord Ruthven Society Award for the category of Media/Pop Culture as announced at the International Conference on the Fantastic in the Art. The Lord Ruthven Assembly is made up of scholars and writers who have an active interest in the concept of vampires in literature, myth, and folklore. The Assembly’s name comes from the title character of John Polidori’s 1819 literature work entitled “The Vampyre.” The Lord Ruthven Assembly holds its annual meeting during the International Conference on the Fantastic in the Arts every year in March, and each year, the assembly
