#Call for Applications: We're excited to organise another #Algorithms that Matter (#ALMAT) workshop in the special program of #impuls Academy 2019. Next February, we will work together with sound artist and composer Robin Minard and the selected participants on a site-specific and environment-aware sound installation for the #MuWa (Museum of Perception) in #Graz.

We had fun yesterday at #MinuteConcerts - I'm waiting for the copy of the recording to get a better impression, but I sensed people liked it. #AnemoneActiniaria

It's that time of the year again
#Graz tomorrow 11pm at #ForumStadtpark - #Anemone Actiniaria performance for impuls #MinuteConcerts festival. We're gonna rave!

Fiddling around with the monitor mount; I would improve the construction if I did the mold again, but for now it should be "ok". Just have to find a good way to hide two corners of the frame. (Video image is from other project, just for testing).
Poor man's parallel programming, I just split the batch and ran the shit three times. (The forth core is for tooting)
Now using stochastic sampling - much faster, and actually nicer. Only again something weird is happening somewhere with the spherical coordinates, but perhaps I leave it like this, as the scattering is nice.
Some funny things happening when playing back the spectrally zoomed constant Q transformed doppler signal mapped to voronoi coodinates (in other words - what's the bloody perceptual link here?)
Image processing is horrible, computers are too slow. What happened to Moore's law? I'm going to write a manifesto for slow computing and art based on it. Like, screw real-time, just let computers work at their own "native" speed. If you get one frame per ten seconds, then that's what humans have to grok. Just look at the thing longer and be patient.

Tomorrow I'll see how this looks on a miniature screen with optical lens: https://vimeo.com/270983771
Gotta figure out how to render this much faster; could also use some interpolation and do away with the frequency cropping.

Something went wrong with those trigonometrics (the sphere is supposed to rotate)
This but at higher resolution, and using an actual Voronoi to cover a 1/5th of a sphere.
How to avoid symmetry?
I was ignorant for many years – only just now did I realise why these are called #Cat cables
Through out these PNGs to test the correctness of a new RotateFlip UGen in FScape; out of laziness wrote them to the home directory, now every time I open the file manager, I see these colours, and that makes me happy LOL
The settings here are: sr = 96000.0, freqMinN = 39500.0 / sr, freqMaxR = 40506.3 / sr, numBands = 384, fftSize = 8192, winStep = 384
Some beautiful Doppler analysis; I added the Constant-Q filter to FScape, currently in the SNAPSHOT of the work branch (new release soon) - the README has more or less the corresponding code: https://github.com/Sciss/FScape-next/tree/work
