Not the point. Here's the point: This has nothing to do with open source. This is about utility and application. Some of us learned in MAX. Your Ableton device: - Is based on Native Instruments Maschine - Which was itself an evolution of the Akai MPC3000 - Who are making Ableton's device - And using a code methodology popularized by Mackie and Digidesign in 1994 - That was basically an extension of MIDI, "open source" since 1980. Your example is the equivalent of using the Nexus One of an example of what's awesome about smartphones because it's not Apple... while ignoring the entire Windows/Symbian Blackberry history that came before it and all the ramifications it implies. And it uses that in the context of wearable computing, when in fact it has nothing to do with it. PS. Ableton hasn't even scratched the surface. I can create arbitrary control environments on my phone for my 12-year-old Kyma rig... for free.People sported cell phones even when they were suitcase-sized and crazy-stupid expensive - not a lot of people, but enough for the idea to catch on and miniaturize. Wearable computing, on the other hand, has been this thing that we might start doing one of these days sometime for no discernible reason because future, maaan.
