Evolvotron 0.6.1
Evolvotron is designed to be an interactive generative art software to evolve images/textures/patterns through an iterative process of random mutation and user-selection driven evolution. more>>
Evolvotron 0.6.1 is designed to be an interactive "generative art" software to evolve images/textures/patterns through an iterative process of random mutation and user-selection driven evolution.
Generated pictures can be saved at different resolutions and used as desktop picture, etc. (you name it). If you like lava-lamps, and still think the Mandelbrot set is cool, this could be the software for you. Basically the software shows a selection of algorithmically generated images.
You pick one you like and the software mutates the algorithm to produce random variants. Simply repeat until bored, hopefully encountering some pleasing eye candy along the way.
Enhancements:
- Fixes some issues with file save/load in 0.6.0.
- Allows saved functions to be loaded again (alternatively, a workaround in 0.6.0 is to edit the second... line of saved XML and replace version=0.6.0 with version="0.6.0").
- Be recommended to anyone making anything other than casual use of evolvotron.

Eclipse - Extensible IDE for development of highly integrated tools more>>
The mission of the Eclipse Project is to adapt and evolve the eclipse technology to meet the needs of the eclipse tool building community and its users, so that the vision of eclipse as an industry platform is realized.
Eclipse is a kind of universal tool platform - an open extensible IDE for anything and yet nothing in particular
The real value comes from tool plug-ins that "teach" Eclipse how to work with things - java files, web content, graphics, video - almost anything one can imagine. Eclipse allows tool builders to independently develop tools that integrate with other peoples tools so seamlessly you cant tell where one tool ends and another starts.
SouthPole 1.0
Filterbank and SP-Delay effects for your Mac more>> Filterbank and SP-Delay effects for your Mac
SouthPole is another great example of the kind of thing that only the Chameleon can bring about. This open source soundkin features four parallel filter bank lines with SP-Delay and Hot Saturation units.
SouthPole makes a great solution for creating long, dynamic and constantly pseudo-random evolving organic pads, ensembles and strings. The possibility of very slow modulation provides the musician with a powerful way of making huge and endless sustained sounds and chords.
SouthPole has been developed entirely by Aleix Riera, an independent Spanish Chameleon developer. Now that it has reached version 1.0, Aleix has kindly decided to publicly release the source code to allow other developers to continue and improve the Sound
Main features:
- Filter Bank: 3 types of 24 dB filter (Low-Pass, Band-Pass and High-Pass) in parallel mode with each line out of four lines available. A total of 12 stereo auto-oscillating Moog-way conceived filters.
- Low Frequency Oscillator Bank: 3 LFOs with their 3 offset adders in each line connected directly to the Filter Controls (cut off, resonance and panning). A total of twelve 0-to-40 Hz logarithmic LFOs working in parallel mode. All parameters are easily and directly controllable with the knobs by the user (amplitude, frequency and offset).
- SP-Delay Unit: A 4-channel mixer followed by a logarithmic stereo Delay (1,1 milliseconds up to 11 seconds) gives the complete control of the 4 send levels, including a Random control of the echo times.
- Hot-Saturation Unit: A stereo Hot-Saturation Unit will slowly burn the sound. It works directly on the Filter Bank (after them, in lines 1 & 2, and before in 3 & 4). Great for emulating early electronic organs and really useful for those agressive drums and percussion.
- Global Mixer: A 3-channel stereo mixer allows you to separate the original sound, the line-processed sound, and the delayed sound to create the perfect balance for the final mix.
- Factory and User Presets Bank: A total of 256 flash memory slots with 256 Factory and User Presets. The 128 Factory Presets and the 128 totally editable User Presets Bank give you rapid access to your own SouthPole configurations and patches.

AstroGrav is an astronomy software program that allows you to simulate how astronomical objects move and interact under the force of gravity. It features superb interactive 3D graphics which allow you to move around within a many-body astronomical system, while watching how it evolves with the passage of time. A wide variety of sample files are provided, including Solar System, space mission, and abstract systems, and these enable you to experiment with the astronomy software without having to enter your own data. The comprehensive editing facilities allow you to either create your own astronomical systems, or to modify existing ones, and provide you with an almost endless scope for experimentation and investigation. AstroGrav calculates how astronomical objects move according to Newtons Law of Gravitation, and displays the results as they are calculated so that you can watch the system evolve as in a movie. AstroGrav is very accurate, dynamically calculates orbits as a system evolves, deals correctly with object collisions, and can cope simultaneously with objects on many different timescales. AstroGrav is available for both Mac and Windows, comes complete with a tutorial and full documentation, and you can download a fully functional 15 day trial version for evaluation.
System Requirements: 500 MHz PowerPC G3 processor, Mac OS X 10.2 minimum, 128 MB RAM, 50 MB disk space

Eclipse SDK 3.4.2
Extensible IDE for development of highly integrated tools. more>> Extensible IDE for development of highly integrated tools.
The Eclipse Project is an open source software development project dedicated to providing a robust, full-featured, commercial-quality, industry platform for the development of highly integrated tools.
The mission of the Eclipse Project is to adapt and evolve the eclipse technology to meet the needs of the eclipse tool building community and its users, so that the vision of eclipse as an industry platform is realized.
Eclipse is a kind of universal tool platform - an open extensible IDE for anything and yet nothing in particular.
The real value comes from tool plug-ins that "teach" Eclipse how to work with things - java files, web content, graphics, video - almost anything one can imagine. Eclipse allows tool builders to independently develop tools that integrate with other peoples tools so seamlessly you cant tell where one tool ends and another starts.
Main features:
Workbench
- The term Workbench refers to the desktop development environment. The Workbench aims to achieve seamless tool integration and controlled openness by providing a common paradigm for the creation, management, and navigation of workspace resources.
- Each Workbench window contains one or more perspectives. Perspectives contain views and editors and control what appears in certain menus and tool bars. More than one Workbench window can exist on the desktop at any given time.
Java development
- The JDT project provides the tool plug-ins that implement a Java IDE supporting the development of any Java application, including Eclipse plug-ins. - It adds a Java project nature and Java perspective to the Eclipse Workbench as well as a number of views, editors, wizards, builders, and code merging and refactoring tools. The JDT project allows Eclipse to be a development environment for itself.
Team programming with CVS
- In the Concurrent Versions System (CVS) team programming environment, team members do all of their work in their own Workbenches, isolated from others. Eventually they will want to share their work. They do this via a CVS Repository.
Branches
- CVS uses a branch model to support multiple courses of work that are somewhat isolated from each other but still highly interdependent. Branches are where a development team shares and integrates ongoing work. A branch can be thought of as a shared workspace that is updated by team members as they make changes to the project.
- This model allows individuals to work on a CVS team project, share their work with others as changes are made, and access the work of others as the project evolves. A special branch, referred to as HEAD, represents the main course of work in the repository (HEAD is often referred to as the trunk).
Sharing work
- As team members produce new work, they share this work by committing those changes to the branch. Similarly, when they wish to get the latest available work, they update their local workspaces to the changes on the branch.
- Thus the branch is constantly changing, moving forward as team members submit new work.
- The branch effectively represents the current state of the project. At any point a team member can update their workspaces from the branch and know they are up to date.
Plug-in Development Environment
- The Plug-in Development Environment (PDE) provides a rich set of tools to create, develop, test, debug and deploy Eclipse plug-ins, fragments, features, update sites and RCP products. PDE also provides comprehensive OSGi tooling, which makes it an ideal environment for component programming, not just Eclipse plug-in development.
System requirements:
- Apple Java 2 Platform Standard Edition (J2SE) 5, service release 4 for Tiger
Enhancements
- New update UI - The UI for performing installation and updates is completely new in 3.4. The new UI is accessed using Help > Software Updates.
- Viewing available software - You can now view the software thats available for install or update in multiple ways. The Available Software tab in the Help > Software Updates dialog provides a view menu button that lets you view the software by site, category, or name.
- Markers view - A new Markers view has been added for users who prefer to have their problems, bookmarks and tasks in the same view (i.e., as it was back in the days before Eclipse 3.0). It can be found by selecting Window > Show View > Other > Markers.
- New look for Problems, Bookmarks and Tasks views - The Problems, Bookmarks and Tasks views now have a new look, implementing many long-standing feature requests.
- Many more improvements and changes
