someone who's doing some things
I thought it might be fun to build an Android version of this little fun web app thing. I’ve been using MIT App Inventor as it’s very easy to use, in fact, much easier than I thought it would be to make this app. So, when it’s a little bit nearer to completion I might put a video up. I haven’t decided if I want to put it on the Google Play store, or if I’ll just make it available here.
Anyway, it’ll be coming along soon enough.
To the extent that I’ve been wondering about getting some of the other components to do even more interesting things with it. I’ve also been thinking about how to combine it with some of my other gear to see how it can work together. It really is awesome stuff!
I recorded some sounds from the littleBits kit using my GuitarJack line in and my iPhone 3G running FourTrack, which still works like a dream!
Dark Eyes Fugitives is just as good as the Great War episode. I really had forgotten how good this story was. It’s made me look forward to Darks Eyes 2 even more.
As I’ve just watched the entire 5 seasons of Primeval (more about that another time) it was interesting to notice that the voice of Molly in this 8th Doctor story was Ruth Bradley, who was in the last few episodes of Primeval. This first part of dark eyes is a great set up for the story, and even though I’ve heard it once before I’m really enjoying it. Paul McGann is such an unsung hero of the Doctor Who world. I personally think that his audio stories are simply excellent, and dark eyes is up there with the best he’s done.
So I’m looking forward even more to dark eyes 2 which is coming in the not too distant future, and also finishing listening to this story soon as well.
These apps are so old that when they first came out we weren’t calling them apps. They were applications, or software! But they’re still good, still work, and are usable.
It’s all part of my ‘make the Axim’ useful project. I’ll let you know how it goes.
I realise that this album came out last year, but I only just gave it a listen, and I’ve been really impressed by it. It’s some great synth pop, and I love synth pop! In fact, some of the sounds and the song construction is very reminiscent of the last Yazoo album. I think it’s a great album and I expect to be listening to it for some time to come.
It just makes me want another Pebble even worse than before, but I know I should wait a few months and see what, if anything, Apple come up with and if it’s worth getting excited about.
This is a great story. A true Blake’s 7 original, just like the episodes. I really enjoyed it even though I’ve heard it before, and of course it’s made me think that I should listen to more of the back catalogue now.
I think I probably will.
I made this little applet in processing and I thought it might be fun. You can find it here.
I’ve added some new videos to this page if you’re interested in what I’m doing with this lovely little modular kit.
