loveley creation!!

How did you do the hydra?
Live or with a recording?

And how(device, opsys) if live?

Thanks

PS: just the sp code tastes a little italian

How did you do the Hydra?

If we look at the hydra code from this YT Evening walk part 2 + hydra video visuals
Play a video of something you have recorded with your phone with vlc player on the computer.
Open Chrome on https://hydra.ojack.xyz/

s0.initScreen()  // run this line 1 time to select video input from vlc
src(s0).out()

Run CTRL+ENTER or CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER

uncomment first line

//s0.initScreen(1)  // run this line 1 time to select video input from vlc
src(s0).out()  // this line shows the video from vlc in Chrome

Run CTRL+ENTER

Fullscreen vlc and Chrome. Then you have a video background for Sonic Pi.
You can hide/show Hydra code with CTRL+SHIFT+h

Be creative in hydra.
A hydra code could look like this

//s0.initScreen(1)  // run this line 1 time to select video input from vlc
//src(s0).pixelate(100,50).thresh(0.5).out()
src(s0).pixelate(450,150).thresh(0.2).color(1,0.5,0).out(o0)
//src(s0).pixelate(50,300).thresh(0.2).out(o0)
src(s0).thresh(0.09).out(o1)
src(s0).thresh(0.03).colorama(1,0,0).luma(0.2).out(o1)
src(o0).blend(src(o1),1).add(src(o3),0.1).out(o2)
src(s0).thresh(0.01).colorama(0,0.15,1).diff(src(o0),0.5).luma(0.5).out(o3)
render(o1)

You select what to show with render()
render() // shows all 4 outputs
render(o0) // show output 1
render(o1) // show output 2
render(o2) // show output 3
render(o3) // show output 4

You can chose which output with “.out(o0)”
src(s0).out(o0) // this line shows the video in Chrome in output o0

In my Sonic Pi code I usually add the hydra code. Looks like this

You can open the link and it will open Chrome with the hydra code.

I like the Sonic Pi editor so this time I used Hydra in Chrome browser.

You could also use Atom with the Sonic Pi plugin. Then you can make a setup like this which is really nice visually and you dont have to ALT+TAB. Here you have Sonic Pi open in the background and send Sonic pi code from Atom with ALT+r like you usually would. Remember to choose “Sonic Pi” as language in Atom, so you get the Sonic Pi code snippets like ll+TAB for live_loop

I have tried to gather what I know of hydra in some Google Docs, which you can find here @relaxnow | Linktree

Thanks for these great resources on Hydra.

Can’t get this to work on MacOS Monterey (12.7.4). In Chrome, when I ran src.initScreen it doesn’t do anything. I tried to input VLC on the Hydra page by enabling Window Management in the settings, but when I select VLC as the window to share with it still doesn’t work. Not sure what to try next.
