lolol actually, I’m now building a quick’n’dirty repl in C to test some mechanics, ended up implementing a small VM, adding sound asap, let’s see where that leads me #crow #raven #lang #coding #sound #livecoding #nyx

next step for https://git.sr.ht/~noizhardware/666cpu/tree/master/item/vm/666MR will be Kur, a new virtual computer system with a variable length audio buffer, let’s see how it plays out #666cpu #nyx #coding #sound

it’s crazy how rob miles and toby ord sound almost exactly the same

#live #music idea: revived devices used as instruments, #sound coming from their own speakers. #livecoding #permacomputing #666cpu #uxn

idea: using a #matrixmixer to generate feedback exciting membranes with a piezo. Try an irish drum #minijack #video #sound

LWave : system to generate a #1bit or #8bit audio stream with L-Systems (might have an interactive/livecoding part) #sound #coding #livecoding #nyx #halfbaked

You can’t tell people; here is a dial, you can pick ‘fast and you’re screwed later’ or ‘slow and careful now’. You’re setting yourself up for failure; they cannot pick ‘slow and careful’, because that’s not their job; their job is to quickly deliver value/outcomes/whatever.

So the evolution of my nick is as follows. I had a bicycle that had the word Zephyr written on it. Which means a western wind. That is related to the Greek god Zephyrus.

I liked words where X make a Z sound. And also had a bit of dyslexia so my firs IRC nick was Xypher swapping the y and e.. I would also use the forms Xypherius or just Xypheri.

Because its close hemming to Cypher I found the nick would get used by others.. Though that is not my origin.

Later I would sign websites I created as The X-Urban Underground (where X was short for Xypher) and that evolved to xuu. Pronounced like zoo.

@compudanzas@compudanzas.net I have no idea what that means, but it sounds exciting!

@prologic@twtxt.net
Sounds like a good plan. It is, of course, up to the Master Crafter. 😋

“there’s this mental move that grants a substantial intelligence bonus” means that there’s probably an evolutionarily sound reason that that’s not enabled by default, and furthermore that this value has seen a decent amount of tuning

musical experience that involve harvesting, farming, growth, and caretaking of virtual musical creatures with personality. creatures would socialize with eachother and their interactions would change the overall musical sounds implicitely. #halfbakedideas

The immersive beats and the haunting vocals in “Silent Shout” by The Knife still sound like they came from the future even-though the song was released in 2006…

@!(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.

@niplav@niplav.github.io “Markov” sounds more like meaningless babble (maybe from a political opponent). See also: “duckspeak”.

Sounds like they’re trying to move Automator things into Shortcuts things.

“wide spectrum” sounds like a neat spin on “noise cancellation off”.

Conspiratorial Thinking and “Multiple Outs”

Magicians have this concept called “Multiple Outs.” It’s actually how you can do simple magic tricks. Suppose you have a person pick a card and say you will guess the suit of their card.

They pick a diamond card and announce it, and you tell them to check underneath their chair to reveal a slip of paper that says, “You will pick a diamond card.”

That might sound like a nice trick, but if they had picke … ⌘ Read more

twt is better because I can pronounce it like twit, which sounds a bit like “twat”, which is an insult and therefore better.

A philosophy of sound ⌘ Read more…

@niplav@niplav.github.io “adrationalism” is probably better. “irrationalism” sounds like a pie-appreciation club for math nerds.

@niplav@niplav.github.io I wouldn’t disagree with your characterization of people who’re interested in radical life extension, but their messaging, generally, seems to not mention “adding life to your years” at all. “Live to be 150” doesn’t sound all that great if you’re going to have 15 years of being in your 80s, so to speak.

making great progress getting interactive sound and video working on android. it’s a setup I wish I had 5 years ago.

@prologic@twtxt.net @anth Sounds like a good idea. The hash to conv/search url should stay local to a pod.

I want to listen to music, but quite honestly the silence sounds better.

@prologic@twtxt.net sounds about right. I tend to try to build my own before pulling in libs. learn more that way. I was looking at using it as a way to build my twt mirroring idea. and testing the lex parser with a wide ranging corpus to find edge cases. (the pgp signed feeds for one)

On a related note, ‘hopwag’ sounds like a music genre

Tonight in #Brussels you can almost hear the sound of relief crawling around the world right now, problems are not gone, but at least we can work now ! ⌘ https://blog.rmendes.net/2020/tonight-in-brussels-you-can-almost-hear-the-sound-of

the rain pouring down on the roof sounded like a dialup modem connected to the internet

added @!(sndkitref “bezier”)!@ to !sndkit today. coupled with @!(sndkitref “oscf”)!@, it is capable of making some really weird wet FM-y sounds. Me like! #updates #sndkit

so, having the etudes be ~20mb/minute for sound AND video ain’t too bad, and that’s before doing any sort of compression. My etudes are almost always 80-120 seconds long, so the total size of a lossless uncompressed etude would be ~40mb, consistently. #halfbakedideas

sound for #breathingcard etudes in 44.1 kHz mono 32-bit floating point sound. that’s about ~10mb a minute raw uncompressed audio. #halfbakedideas

a microblogging creative coding platform like dwitter, but for sound. users would be encouraged to remix, the output of one persons code would become the input of the new code. only text would be stored on the server, with audio rendered client-side. to save on time, there could be caches of frozen audio for remixes. #halfbakedideas

Surprise of the day: the “you sent an e-mail” sound in Outlook for iOS really benefits from a decent amount of stereo separation. Kind of a pity that its separatedness will kind of be like an easter egg.

The contact free delivery options sounds cool, let’s see if it works as well in practice

@freemor@freemor.homelinux.net ok, that sounds suspicious.

Yesterday I visited the #munich #philharmony for the first time as the ‘Deutsches Filmorchester Babelsberg’ and the ‘Neuer Kammerchor Berlin’ were playing ‘The Sound Of Quentin #Tarantino’ – awesome!

@freemor@freemor.homelinux.net Sounds like yet another reason to never buy a smart TV, or at least to never depend on any functionality that requires it to be connected to the Internet.

Huh?! I bombed myself! Allocating 1GB to gzip and send it to the evil bot didn’t sound too wrong. But I forgot that the script runs in parallel for each request… BOOM!

[sound of rain, quiet shuffling]↵… wait. stay↵- - hm. aye↵[more rain]

gameboy color speaker replaced using ds lite speaker. sounds quieter than I expected. but better than no sound at all. this, combined with the new case I got for it, makes it almost feel like a brand new device :)
