5000th toot! #introduction time.
I'm originally from London, UK, now based in Alt Empordà. I make #CreativeCoding #MathArt. I use Linux since 2004 or so, currently happy with Debian though I need to find something else to keep my remaining 32bit hardware up to date #permacomputing. Most of my code is published under #copyleft licenses.
I started making music on classic #Amiga, using #OctaMED SoundStudio until 2003. Then I used #PureData until 2011, but mousing patch cables was increasingly not fun so I wrote pdlua to embed Lua in Pd and later fixed some things to let libpd be compiled with emscripten to run in web browsers. In 2012 I started #LiveCoding music in the #C programming language, which I still do.
Always interested in #fractals, I wrote some libraries to support my investigation of the #MandelbrotSet. I took over maintenance of Kalle's Fraktaler 2, but eventually I was fed up with its code and wrote Fraktaler-3 from scratch, to support deep zooming into hybrid escape time fractals. A companion program Zoomasm is for video output.
I have a lot of projects, most sleeping until I feel inspired to work on them some more. Currently working on Mandeltron, a thing that combines live-coding with the Mandelbrot set.
More on my website, including blog going back to 2005:
Yep, it was Message boxes I needed. #puredata
Video is me getting Bangs when push and release one of the switches on the FCB1010, though I just realized I'll still need to filter for channel and note on the NoteOff Bang. But progress is made and I can now start using this device as my singular Footthingy on the floor, for the foreseeable future, once I do a large amount more of PureData thingies. One of these for each of the ten footswitches in a nice little black box and Bangs out the responses for me to do with as I please, just like Jesus intended things.
I need to get the pedals sending data also, they're turned off for some reason at the moment but I know they work, unless they somehow broke just sitting in a corner of the studio for a year. Once I get this dialed in, I need to acquire at least one backup unit, good thing they're still kicking around at reasonable prices, unlike many well built things...
