Send me your notes and thoughts on 'waiting'. What are you waiting for, is that waiting hopeful, or anxious, or incurious?

A hybrid piece with an online Mastodon bot form via @kontakt ; and a physical installation form at Reagenz Graz.

Boosts welcome!

It's Saturday because at this point in the week you are extremely saturated.

About this account

I'm a sound and digital artist, interested in installation and intermedia, improvisation and electronic/electroacoustic music. I develop a bunch of open source software.

I keep only one account, so the toots are a mix of sound/art focused things, random thoughts, and few rants (CW'd, and you don't need to share my opinion). I'm friendly/respectful 🍍 + aim to keep an open mind.

Account is locked (allow time to review), because I don't want bots and nazis to follow me. Thx 🌈

I checked a couple of "white board" apps recently, and while I thought `xournal` was quite nice (and has a package in debian), I ended up using `excalidraw`, despite my hate for web based apps and anything run via node.js. You can clone it and run it locally, so no need to use internet based version.

#xCoAx 2022 - 10th International Conference on Computation, Communication, Aesthetics and X - Coimbra (PT). The call is out: https://xcoax.org/

Woopie, going to to #Piksel festival Bergen this year. Well, "going" - I have to find travel funds, perhaps it will have to be online participation. But in any case nice!

have we ever related the term "feature extraction" to extractivism?

"Attention : Framasphere ferme le 14 octobre 2021". oops. To be honest, Diaspora* never took off for me. It was never possible to discover and build proper networks, and for dumb reasons a bridge to ActivityPub / Mastadon was never intended by the developers. I guess I'll just let my anyway quite orphaned account die … Hope some people move over to Masto.

Put out some more photos and sound for #Aleatorium documentation (tomorrow is last exhibition day): https://www.sciss.de/texts/med_aleatorium.html

so most #people use "smart" phones with great cameras. I only make #crappy photos with my nokia when no real camera is around (often on travel), and I just noticed I haven't taken them off the phone since 2014 (actually three nokias as they died and were replaced with the same model). so that yields an interesting random #trail of what might have happened in the past #eight years … (1/7)

blind deconvolution never works, or at least not as expected

Some photos from #Aleatorium at Glowing Globe (Kortil gallery Rijeka)

eh, verlötetes Akku, nochmal 5 EUR

#Mellite 3.7.0 is published, and can be installed via the launcher. It contains mainly bug fixes and a number of small improvements. The Node Tree view is finally fixed.

People are moving away from Gitter, although you can now also log on via Matrix. What's a good support forum for ScalaCollider and Mellite?

(mailing list is dead, so I won't revive it; and please keep accessibility in mind, not just what's fossly "best")
