Another run, takes an hour or so 😕 Left input, right output

Hey #caturday, my humans emptied some shelves by putting away winter clothing, so I got a new spot.

Had a quick go at the 'Hungarian #algorithm' yesterday and an interesting idea for image processing. Now this 150 x 100 image took half an hour to render, so the idea was shattered that I could make an HD video with this :-/ Gotta look at faster variants.

The IMU arrived today; looks pretty neat; someone wrote it looks like a christmas tree with red, gree, blue LEDs - but you can turn them all off in the software. Talking about, that's just amazing, you've got debian packages for all architectures, language bindings for all common languages, and the trick is it runs a daemon that translates USB to TCP, so if you write for example for the JVM, you don't need any native libs.

We're having a #Mäanderungen weekend. Reactivated my portable Pi camera, a walk around the block pointing mostly upwards. On close-up, they are quite blurry because of exposure time. I want to couple the trigger to an accel sensor so it will be in sync to my movement.

Suspending or propping up? Now I'm thinking that elevating the plates with metal sticks from floor could work better than hanging from steel wires. Test with broken ceramics, transducers still sound as required, although not much colouring through the ceramics are audible.

Retracing image with GNG (growing neural gas)

I realised I don't really like editing Scala code in #Mellite, because the Scala editor is just too weak. So I warmed up again to the idea of utilising the #Scala plug-in for #IntelliJ. It basically seems to be possible, although I anticipate a lot of problems, e.g. state persistence, windowing...

Here's my proof of concept that the app can be embedded...

The big next question is if and how the Scala editor could be used from my program.

Ok, we're a few minutes past #Caturday here in Austria. But this happened today 😸

I'm experimenting with my pattern library (originally inspired from SuperCollider's) - now adding serialization support to streams, which means that probably you could eventually use that system (inside SoundProcesses) to create behaviour that persists over long periods of time, workspace re-loads or computer reboots.

Still a hell lot of manual serialization glue code to write :-( I should invest in getting a macro written for this.

On Friday, we were making fresh observations for the #Mäanderungen project. Found some very particular zebra crossings (and a fantastic place to exhibit, so fingers crossed we'll get the permission).

If however circuits are always already bundles of lines, cell structures and lattice planes, individual entanglements perhaps commence.

The detritus of ants vanishes into space, penetrates into screens, yielding surprising sounds sized 40 by 30 centimetres.

Bought ISBN numbers today, I feel sillily publishy now It also means we need produce nine more books or catalogs to amortise LOL

Achievement unlocked. Nighty night.
