I'm using Ping to control sine oscillators in SuperCollider. How else might you derive control data for audio devices from stuff automatically slurped off the internets?

That's a weird idea.

You would need something that fluctuates in an interesting way, no?

Also, I would think you would need to boxcar average to smooth it out.

Not the stock market, please.

Too depressing

Yes, there's already heavy smoothing going on with the round-trip data. I thought there might be some live weather data that would work, but i didn't find an html representation of weather stuff that was updated frequently enough to be musically interesting.

Sorry to deliver a dead sparrow of false happiness

I literally found tons of stuff by googling "real time data", though

'/dev/nic: No such file or directory', searchlight can't find a nic anywhere. But i might be being a computard.

roshi: yes there are certainly lots of real time things. I was surprised at how hard time i've had searching for pages with plain old html text that gets updated often (which would be easier to use than stuff inside a java applet or image).

yah nic was a euphemism.

you on osx? try this.
terminal

sudo tcpdump -i en1

(en1 is your wifi connection, en0 is your ethernet)
that'll get u enuf net data to parse
