about play
Play is a networked media-distribution system created in Max/Jitter. Play was developed as part of "NYC on Channel TWo", a 2010 commission of New Radio and Performing Arts, Inc., for its Turbulence web site (
turbulence.org). It was supported in part by public funds from the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs, in partnership with the City Council."NYC on Channel TWo" is documented on the Turbulence site
here.

Click here to download Play. In order to edit or use
Play, you will need
Max/Jitter. (We would welcome a translation of
Play to Puredata/GEM). As an application,
Play is not an off-the-shelf solution. When we looked for an easily adaptable video player that could pull from specific playlists, nothing was available that met our needs. We are offering
Play here for others who might have similar needs.
While we cannot fully support you in your use of
Play, we will attempt to answer questions. The best way to reach us is
via Channel TWo's Facebook group.
