@pkirn.bsky.socialHa I’m coming back so …
I have some faith in the opposition. Also we can all use SI as in the one in the picture ;)
Here: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metrica...
We’ve had since 1866. It’s time.
@pkirn.bsky.socialThat seems possible. I’m going to continue to point to the real work and original ideas. I also fully support everybody who works in this business and moves on. In the end I believe the humans behind these projects are more than just this little industry.
@pkirn.bsky.socialYeah, Audible Instruments is the authorized version, so I'd watch for that!
@pkirn.bsky.socialh/t @synthanatomy.bsky.social for finding this one!
@pkirn.bsky.socialThe final missing piece: Beads, the gorgeous "texture synthesizing" granular processor and oscillator and sequel to Beads, is now open source (MIT/CC). And it's code from a time when code was written by humans for other humans to read. Ahem.
@pkirn.bsky.socialThat’s ok; I appreciate Trump campaigning for stuff now and giving it the kiss of death. I mean apart from the New York Giants since that already ended Jaxson Dart’s season. But AI and GOP Senate candidates, knock yourself out, sir! 😢
@pkirn.bsky.socialI'm assuming the adoption of "SI" for AI means now *truly* the USA is never going on the metric system? I choose to believe, though. It could come with single-payer healthcare.
@pkirn.bsky.socialMultipolar s*** show yes. Which horrible aging men would you like to ruin your day today and amazingly you can opt to have more than one group at the same time.
@pkirn.bsky.socialExactly! Yeah, noting there is TE gear in there! Maybe that will help counter Jesper's idea of all the "hate"; I mean -- we do all keep buying their stuff :D
@pkirn.bsky.socialYou're welcome to finish the Talking Heads lyrics; go for it! Reply here. ;) (stop making synths making synths!)
@pkirn.bsky.socialI’ve got a CV that’s better than this / But you don’t remember at all / As we get older and stop making synths / You won’t find me waiting long ...
@pkirn.bsky.social"The butterfly stands as a potent symbol of the transformation between consciousness and matter, the metamorphosis of spirit and flesh. In Miao mythology, it is also the Mother of All Things, embodying the hatching and emergence of life."
@pkirn.bsky.socialI missed mentioning this: there *is* a free demo of HyperWarp, so if you're curious to just try this out, you can (including the free extra presets by me on CDM).
Enjoy: cdm.link/hyperwarp-ha...
Demo is at: babyaud.io/hyperwarp
@pkirn.bsky.socialOk I’m glad I didn’t write that blurb as that is absolutely something I would try to make work with exactly these results.
@pkirn.bsky.socialAnd also some sounds like this...
@pkirn.bsky.socialBaby Audio HyperWarp is a time-warping effect built on a granular engine, with envelopes/breakpoints drawing and 7 different profiles. It's really unique, and I've got a detailed hands-on + a free soundbank I've built for it.
And I've been playing sounds like this:
@pkirn.bsky.socialThe perspective we could all use right now. Showed this to my synthesis class and it struck them, so time to share it with you all, too.
@pkirn.bsky.social"For people..."
@pkirn.bsky.socialJust sing along in German, that usually helps.
@pkirn.bsky.socialGod I was so into that show for some reason...
