Hi Justin. I'm afraid we can't accept anyone who travels by flying, even if they cover the cost themselves. sorry. we're experimenting with running international projects sustainably - if it works, we can then illustrate to other arts organisations that it is possible to find new methods of working with minimal climate impact.
your project sounds great and I'd love to see some results.
@dbini, I have a dance film for which I am in preproduction. The film will use optical mocap and generative visuals. The piece explores ways in which censorship become incorporated practices in the body. I am working with an internationally well known composer and choreographer. I would love to apply to attend, but I am in Canada. As I would require air travel, would this disqualify me from applying? I would be able to apply to cover the air travel with arts agencies here.

Not from the User Actor (unless you get *extremely* complex and put hundreds of actors and other User Actors inside, but then any performance issues you'd see would be because of how much you're asking your computer to do; it wouldn't be because all that is in a User Actor). The four channels of video are the only thing in that plan from which I could imagine seeing any sort of performance hit.

Yep, you can give Control IDS to actors inside a User Actor/Macro. I would suggest making a Comment actor inside the User Actor where you write down what Control IDS you've used and their purposes. Making documentation now can save you a headache later.
Im just wondering if there are any limits to user actors.
My experiments so far have gone well but I am wanting to

I hope my terminology is understandable?
Many Thanks

This year's Oulu Dance Hack takes place at the end of May in northern FInland. We are currently looking for participants. For the first time in 9 years, we have a budget to be able to pay people.
It's 5 days in a studio exploring the relationship between dance and technology. I'm not sure what equipment will be available this time, but there will be probably be Isadora holding it together.
Participants will be paid a fee, plus per diem. Accommodation is provided, and we will cover travel expenses. We do not use air travel, so Hackers will be required to travel by train/bus/ferry - the payment will include travel time. Later this year, we will be Hacking in Hungary, so if you live in the south/east of Europe, it may be more convenient to apply for a place in Budapest Dance Hack.
Application deadline is 18.2. - more details and link to the application form at: https://taikabox.com/hack/
Simultaneous capture of audio and video is not in the immediate set of features that we're working on right now, but running OBS alongside Isadora and controlling the AV capture via OSC is very possible. (I did this because I needed audio and video capture for Isadora for a project.)
You just need to download this: https://obsproject.com/forum/resources/osc-for-obs-app.1222/
And here's a User Actor I made for this: osc-for-obs-recording.iua3
Hey Fred,
Feel free to sent in a support ticket so that our Sales & License people can join the conversation.
Thanks!
Hi, I am thinking of selling a sub license as I don’t need the extra any more. Is there anything special that needs to be done for this? Some way to register ownership with troika?
