@movq@www.uninformativ.de You should send ‘em this sample. ;-)

you know i can never get into boy groups but i have liked EXO’s obsession since it came out. that “i want you” sample is just too good man https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uxmP4b2a0uY

i love pinkpantheress so much she’s so cute and fun and tapped into every aesthetic and dance music sound i love. if you like house and garage and D&B music, check her out!!!! she absolutely knows her shit too btw she’s sampled basement jaxx and adam F

I’m playing with ratterplatter again: It’s a toy that watches disk I/O and emulates the noise of a real hard disk. (Linux only.) It uses sound samples from one of my older disks.

I tried a different approach at estimating the disk activity and I think I finally got it right (after almost 10 years … 🤦).

Demo, booting a Windows 2000 VM: https://movq.de/v/1400544cc6/2kboot-ratterplatter-2.mp4

(For this purpose alone, I put a couple of mini speakers into my PC case, so that the noise comes from the right place: https://movq.de/v/a3b2dc0932/speakers.jpg)

The results aren’t too bad, but this thing can’t be super accurate due to the huge I/O caches that we have these days. For the video, I dropped the caches before booting Windows, otherwise you would have heard almost nothing.

FWIW, if you don’t know it yet, this is the equivalent for proper keyboard sound: https://github.com/zevv/bucklespring

QOA Benchmark Results and File Format Specification
The specification for the Quite OK Audio Format,
announced in a previous blog post,
is now finalized. QOA is a lossy audio compression format. Typical audio
signals (44100hz, stereo) are encoded into 278 kbits/s, or more precisely 3.2
bits per sample – exactly 1/5 of the bits needed for an uncompressed WAV.

Time Domain Audio Compression at 3.2 bits per Sample
Audio formats typically fall into one of three categories: “lossless”,
“complicated” or “bad”. After developing a
simple image format
last year, I tried to come up with an audio format that fits neither of these
categories.

In other words: a format that is lossy, simple and quite ok.
Naturally, it’s called QOA — the Quite OK Audio Format.

introducing: the !trikuf. code samples included. #halfbakedideas

rounded rectangle recipe in #cairo [[https://www.cairographics.org/samples/rounded_rectangle/]] #links #vector #graphics

Just copied over more samples today from my sample collection from one drive to another. Things are in more than one place for the first time in a long time, maybe ever in some cases? Feels nice.

I’ve already implemented like 4 new features today just out of necessity with my !sample_curation project.

to start my sample !zettelkasten, I imported some waveform collections I had nearby: AKWF, Architecture Waveforms 2010, and WaveEdit #samples #curation #zet

a collection of high-res wavetables with a !CC0 license: [[https://waveeditonline.com/]] #links #samples

implemented initial crate import in !weewiki. one step closer towards !sample_curation

I’ve recently been reading up on zettelkastens again, since it is very closely related to the ethos of a personal wiki system like !weewiki. The thing that interests me is the emergent patterns that come from linking things to things. Which is exactly the sort of solution I’m looking for !sample_curation. #halfbakedideas

saw this great writeup once on how somebody visualized data by drawing faces with them, and letting our brain’s natural face feature-extraction algorithms interpret the data. Kinda want to try to do that with some of these samples and waveforms I’m curating. #halfbakedideas

more attempts at articulating the !sample_curation problem space today. #updates

updating my wiki index, so some pages are not going to be featured there anymore: !MIDI_sucks !sample_curation !howyousay !sixtycolumnrule
