Getting custom open sound control messages to properly trigger MIDI events in OSCulator is not as simple as it might look like. Since I made good progress in the last few days (with the gracious help of Camille Troillard, the author of the software), I though I'd share some of my findings.

This winter, I'm trying something new with my students. I am inviting them to use a keyboard emulator for my physical computing class. It should make it very easy for them to receive physical switch data within their authoring environment (Adobe Flash). And because I want them to focus on the interaction rather than the programming, I created Jmulator, an ActionScript 3 library to simplify even further the usage of keyboard emulators (also know as keyboard encoders) in Flash.
