First Time Caller, Long Time Lister is a 2016 performance by Fan Letters.
The performance is controlled by 5 programs.
1) The transition program creates the render context and manages the seemless transition between pieces over the course of the show.
2) The First Time Caller patch controls the all of the video and animation behaviours as well as manages communication with the microcontroller (4), and audio (5).
3) The polyloads patch creates multiple instances of video files to load.
4) The arduino sketch controls the speed of the motor driven percussive instruments and communicates with Max.
5) The 5th program involved with this peice is a super collider program for sound synthesis written by my collaborator Dylan Neely.
