lots of activity in !gest. no longer is it one of the #halfbakedideas.

my little travel pillow arrived today for my feet while sitting in the meditation bench. paired with my foam pad for my knees, I think I can begin trying to test this out for my future portable kneeling workspace. #updates #halfbakedideas

make time for myself in order to write words and code for !gest.

conceptualizing the monome grid as a highly accurate low-density monochrome display #halfbakedideas

new recipe added to the !food page: !brownies.

new !sndkit algorithm: @!(sndkitref “blep”)!@.

on a monome 16x8 grid, you can get 10 consecutive 3x3 blocks in a 2x5 configuration. what’s left is a narrow 1x vertical strip, and a 2x horizontal strip. interesting divisions for a glyph based interface with controls. #halfbakedideas

got #libreElec to work today. My Pi4 feels a bit more useful now.

low-res hard-edged SDFs in btprnt. mainly as a way to compose organic looking geometry. #halfbakedideas

I want to somehow use my monome grid to build out coarse vocal tract shapes for a physical model like !voc or @!(sndkitref “tract”)!@. 16 diameters with 8 steps of resolution, or 32 diameters with 4 steps of resolution. #halfbakedideas

new algo in sndkit: @!(sndkitref “tract”)!@, a physical model of the vocal tract.

added a !projects page. it’s dynamically generated :)

created a !now page.

@!(sndkitref “glottis”)!@ is an analytical model that approximates the kind of sound the human glottis makes, and is now available as a sndkit model. This is extracted from the !voc project.

made a quick page for !vocshape

okay. I didn’t get the PhD position. oh well. #updates

life decisions approaching. any day now. depending on the outcome, it’ll range from major to huge. #updates

feels good to finally chip away at !voc. down to less than 500 LOC.

I finally got around to writing down some audio programming tips for people starting out @!(ref “audio_programming_recipe”)!@.

cinnamon rolls today. waiting for Iceland to get back to me.

I’m back on twitter, kind of. I’m only using it to mirror posts from my mastodon account: [[https://twitter.com/yesthiswaspaul]].

new !sndkit algorithm: @!(sndkitref “env”)!@.

Learned how to make baguettes last week: !baguette.

many examples of #metapost with pictures [[http://tex.loria.fr/prod-graph/zoonekynd/metapost/metapost.html]] #links

the croissant circle of life @!(ref “croissant_circle_of_life”)!@.

I think I’m done trying to be social on twtxt. This is too hard. Enjoy my read-only feed?

created an overview page on patch hotswapping in !monolith the #monolithwiki: @!(monolithref “hotswapping”)!@.

published @!(sndkitref “chorus”)!@ to !sndkit.

the ‘magic circle’ sine wave algorithm: [[https://ccrma.stanford.edu/~jos/pasp/Digital_Sinusoid_Generators.html]] #links

lol inner joins are slow. learned that the fun way.

2-bit audio gives you DC. I like having DC.

the !sndkit_TODO page is back online.
