Trying to make art that video codecs hate.
(But this should look nice IRL with a beefy projector)
24.3.2025 21:07Trying to make art that video codecs hate.(But this should look nice IRL with a beefy projector)#cablesGL #webGLUpdated my now page, now (pun intended) I want it to be much more more fancy and read like a log with old entries. Already have a plan, but so many other things to do...
Reposting to delete that giant video, which also had some pretty weird codec issues:
Had a blast with Droneboy in combination with my retro handheld. The limited input possibilities of the GameBoy make the chord page a bit weird at first, but it's super nice if you get the hang of it.
Check out the video of me playing with the RGB30, #modularSynth and Korg NTS-3 here:

I think something like this will make it into the live set on the 12th of April at ModularField in Cologne #theWorkshop #music #drone

Had to take the bike to a venue on the other side of the city to see Night Verses and Animals as Leaders live. But turns out those long bike rides made it even more impressive and meaningful.

It's an event at Modularfield Label, celebrating record store day and opening the photography exhibition "Who needs context anyway?" of my good friend Boris.
Vernissage starts at 4pm, my performance will start at 8pm.
I'll copy all details in the video description.

The fun thing is: I really wanted to build a tracker like interface, but I never really use it that way. Thats mostly because I used this in combination with #eurorack step sequencers: If I would have had a step by step mode inside midiTracker it would have been hard to sync the external sequencers.
Now I rely less and less on those external sequencers, or I let them run free – so it might be time to add some forward/backward stepping mechanic for editing and pre-listening to the sequences.
I just hate my experience with raspberry pi’s on some days. I’m not fluent enough in “Linux” and just break things by googling my way around it.
I recently enabled write protection for /boot/ (and successfully brought everything back to normal) which might have fucked stuff up.
In rarely had any issues using https://github.com/gethiox/HIDI but tonight I just cloud not make it talk to my midi device. But all other programs could talk to it well.
Then I noticed weird file permissions (could have been myself in the past). I made it so bad that nothing worked.
After re-installing the program in its newest version IT WORKED ONE SINGLE TIME - I was able to send out notes to the modular!?!
Right after restarting - everything is gone again.
I’m so pissed - a whole evening gone.
(99% sure it’s me not the tool)

Added to the songs I want to perform at the next gig. ✊

While I was mostly pushing the modular synth to sound like a 303 (with glides and all) I ended up with something less acid and more IDM
Felt cute, might delete later
"Common Side Effects" S01E01 is available on youtube right now. I now need to find a way to watch the rest here in Germany.

The premise is really strong, the animation and design look very good. So much fun and exposition in one episode.

I think, while admiring last nights efforts. Kinda wild how fun this back and forth between programming, soldering and making music is. I hope I can translate that into my live performances.
Edit: corrected life performance to live performance…
Finally moved the USB to MIDI device inside the panel!
“Bye, bye 2 meter long USB to Din MIDI cable 👋”

I've added a few bits and pieces on top with after effects for the final look, which I'll release as soon as next motion meetup happened IRL. But I might share some background info as I found out some neat things you can doo with #geometryNodes for this kind of situation.

Simulations get me every time. I just go in and want to have a good time fiddling with physics. BOOM. Four hours later and I'm still not happy how the simulation turned out. But I guess it's also going somewhere now.

I'm building a little realtime prototype and would like to place some basic, but realistic trees in a unity scene.
(I do not understand speedtree creator and abandoned that idea. Just a stupid FBX/GLB I can drop would be enough)

For the out part I want to do either some anti gravity thing, cloth simulation, or both!
