paper toys

I'm working actually on a project of a CrafToys generator on Processing. Like my old project "Pince Vocale"


to produce some paper avatar, ready to manifest their opinion like this small Eniarofer with eniarof placards


I would like to print automatically the template in the Processing application. After some research on internet I've found my treasure, some function in the library java.awt.print


----------------------------------------------

a small function below, just for print the screen :


void printscreen()
{
try {
java.awt.print.PrinterJob pjob = java.awt.print.PrinterJob.getPrinterJob();
pjob.setJobName("monvisuel");
pjob.setCopies(1);
pjob.setPrintable(new java.awt.print.Printable() {
public int print(Graphics pg, java.awt.print.PageFormat pf, int pageNum) {
if (pageNum > 0)
return java.awt.print.Printable.NO_SUCH_PAGE;

superPaint(pg);

return java.awt.print.Printable.PAGE_EXISTS;
}
});

// comment the 2 line to avoid printer dialog box
if (pjob.printDialog() == false)
return;

pjob.print();
} catch (java.awt.print.PrinterException pe) {

}
}

void superPaint(Graphics g) {
super.paint(g);
}

Test Oterp demo 0.00000001 in Madrid

debug psp video

sometimes the debug screen appear too fast on psp. The solution to read the bug is to film your psp and after read the bug. A little complicate but a funny debug methode.

Patch & KO at Gamerz 02

just a short post to announce one of my participation "Patch & Ko" in collaboration with Manuel Braun aka Decept.org for the exhibition Gamerz 02 15 to 25 january.
Our installation is a mix of the videogame Streetfighter 2 and something like a bean machine by F.Galton, pachinko, marble game or Rube Goldberg machine. How to control a video game with a random and chaotic game. A random patch to play at this game.
About this idea and relation between video game and pachinko I recommand to read the chapter 8 in "Trigger Happy" by Steven Poole.
