OSC local network communication between Android and OSX

I’ve been barking up the wrong tree trying to use the localhost address for both systems. The key is to use the other side’s respective ip address and forget 127.0.0.1. Look up the ip address for the Android device and use it as ‘myRemoteLocation’ on the Processing side and use the ip address of your computer on the Android side. Add println code to your new oscEvent to confirm that messages are being sent both ways. For example, on Processing side println(“Message from Android”) and on the Android side println(“Message from Processing”). You should see these show up in the console logs and there will be color dots on both systems.
