Client: Unseen TV: Australia's largest online video web site

Webel client Unseen TV uses Drupal Content Management System (CMS) technology to deliver a wide range of online videos to Australia and the world. Webel extended and improved the site, including introduction of searchable keywords and tag clouds, improved RSS feeds, a modular composite layout newsletter, and PHP scripts for management of large newsletter subscription datasets.

Client: Rattanawan Rattakul: Professional Management Services for IT and ICT

The professional services web site for IT and ICT manager Rattanawan Rattakul uses the Drupal multi-site technology to run off the same codebase as this Webel site. The site features extensive use of custom types and custom views, with rich hyperlink cross-references between career profiles, professional activities, organisations, and publications.

Client: Time2Exercise with fitness expert Hadyn Muir

Hadyn Muir - one of Australia's leading yoga and Pilates instructors - is the proprietor of time2exercise - a homegrown business, which specialises in fitness prescription for the elite sportsperson/athlete, the injured worker, and the dis-eased individual. He teaches at Yoga studios and gyms in Hervey Bay, Queensland, Australia, and on Fraser Island, where he conducts yoga retreats.

The time2exercise site was migrated to Drupal by Webel.

Case Study: PLAY music and art project: digital eCommerce with integrated PayPay

In the ancient tradition of web developers everywhere, Dr Darren of Webel is also his own demonstration client. The PLAY project features music, images, video, art, and media from his "other life" as a musician, performer, and entertainer, as well as being a functioning Drupal eCommerce Ubercart site, where you can hear and buy digital music MP3s online via PayPal. Check out also this gallery/video tutorial trail on the new animated logo with synchronised "sound circles" synthesized in PureData and with visuals generated in GEM.

Case Study: the Ethical eMarket: a marketing site with ethical criteria and product reviews

The Ethical eMarket developed by Webel puts an "ethical" spin on marketing, and showcases Drupal web technologies. The site driven by custom types and custom views in Drupal, and all product links, media, and metadata are database-driven. There is also a set of evolving criteria and policies applied to product referrals, which ccan be influenced by registered members through votes, comments, and a user forum.

Client: No Magic Inc: the MagicDraw UML & SysML online school

Dr Darren of Webel was the founder and original author of the Drupal-driven MagicDraw UML and SysML eSchool, and contributed nearly 1000 pages of tutorial trails and tips on software engineering with UMLTM and systems engineering with SysML, using detailed rich text and exported UML diagram images, as well as screencasts like: Video screencast: YouTube: MagicDraw UML: SysML Plugin active validation tutorial. Visit also: Galleries index: Webel's contribution to the MagicDraw UML and SysML online eSchool.

Client: Solimport (Norway & Australia)

Johnny Solberg - director of Solimport - is assessing Drupal Content Management System (CMS) technology in consultation with Webel for a new site binding together information on Solimport's international trade offerings.

Australian fitness guru Hadyn Muir's time2exercise web site was migrated to Drupal CMS technology by Webel ! Screenshot of time2exercise Drupal CMS web site developed by Webel. The site features exercise class timetables using Drupal CCK and Views, Drupal forums, and lots of Image galleries based on Views.

About Webel

in

Webel - in operation in Australia since 2000 - is a Scientific IT Consultancy, specialising in model-driven software engineering and systems engineering for tasks in science and engineering using technologies such as:

Webel offers services in analysis, design, architecture, modelling, simulation, animation, web application and & desktop application development, and custom data analysis.

And Webel also develops database-driven Content Management System (CMS) web sites powered by Drupal (like this site).

The Webel newsletter: inaugural quarterly edition gives a good overview of services and technologies offered by Webel.

Proprietor Dr Darren welcomes you to Webel - the "Elements of the Web"

R & D projects

[book] Submitted by webel on Wed, 01/04/2009 - 13:34

Webel hosts research and development projects such:

  • The Drancing and Drancel accelerometer-based "air instruments" for generating "air music" and visuals from dance and movement using real-time audio and video synthesis.
  • The generative NeXML schema for the NeXus scientific data format.

Educational examples from these projects appear throughout this site, and they are also used as case studies in Webel training courses. They showcase technologies such as UMLTM, SysML, JavaTM, XML, XML Schema, graphical & patch programming, and real-time synthesis.

New: automated slideshows of all Webel images

This images slideshow is a good starting point for discovering the scope of Webel projects. It also serves as a discussion point for Drupal developers regarding efficiency of active web page elements using JQuery technology; it is based on the Views Slideshow module. For comparison there is also a version of the images slideshow using the similar Views Rotator module.

Demonstrates combined oscillator frequency variation, amplitude variation, and triggered Drum sample ("Drumming by Dancing") modes along with DrancelRGB monitor visuals projected onto the "Drancer" performer.

For this demonstration two hand-held WiiTM Remotes on a MacBook Pro were used. (The original Drancing accelerometer suit (since 1997) used 5 triaxial accelerometers in a "body star" pattern").

New: Drupal mult-site technology demonstration site

[blog] Submitted by webel on Thu, 29/01/2009 - 09:44

This professional services site demonstrates the ability of Drupal sites to share a common code-base, reducing maintenance and ensuring stable upgrades to clients of Webel Drupal services.

Video: Drancing suit 2002: variable frequency + variable amplitude mode

Play video
Scenes

The (X,Y,Z) channels of five 3D accelerometers vary the amplitudes and the frequencies of 5 x 3 = 15 pure sinusoidal oscillators.

One can hear "beat" frequencies generated by similar frequencies corresponding to different accelerometer channels, such as when the arms are raised to similar levels, which effect can be exploited for musical nuance and for movement therapy to measure symmetry of posture.

Scenes

Demonstration of the axes of a triaxial accelerometer using sound synthesis. The relationship to gravity is explored using vector acceleration with 3D Variable Frequency Oscillator (VFO) mode, then amplitude variation "triaxial chord" mode.

Drancel RGB PureData/GEM accelerometer monitors

The Drancel accelerometer "light atom" principle can be applied to any light source or video generator; here PureData/GEM computer visuals are used to create Drancel accelerometer monitors, based almost exactly on the Java visuals from previous versions of DranceWare.

The corresponding (very pragmatically developed) prototype PureData/GEM patches look a bit rough, however the resulting monitor lights are beautiful when projected behind a performer, and they provide excellent visual feedback to accompany the audio synthesis.

The RGB LEDs of a Drancel

Shows the (R,G,B) Light Emitting Diodes (LED)s of a prototype Drancel, which are driven by the (X,Y,Z) signals of a triaxial accelerometer. The LEDs are backed by tiny reflectors.
