Nice covers right? I’ll let you know what I think of the stories when I’ve finished them.

Lizzie Emeh at the Albany last night
This was a truly lovely gig last night at the Albany, which is, in my opinion, a great venue. Lizzie was awesome, and the support (who’s name I sadly didn’t catch) was totally amazing. The clicking song was out of this world!
I am just so glad that I went along, and I’m so glad to be a part of Heart n Soul.
Science Museum: Churchill’s Scientists
It feels like it was ages ago. This was another little exhibition in the Science Museum that I had a look at a week ago. Very interesting especially as I’ve just been reading Churchill’s history of the second world war. There was quite a lot of information that I didn’t know in there and some very insightful context too.
If you’re interested in going along it’s where the Alan Turing exhibition was a while back. If that makes sense at all.
Movember nearly at the half way stage
Here we are, it is very nearly half way through Movember. If you’re interested in seeing my Movember page it’s here, please do take a look. I plan to add a lot of stuff to it over the whole month of Movember, so you should always find something new there.
If you can support me with a donation I’d really appreciate it.
A final plug for my interview with Marc from Disquiet
I have posted about this before, and this is going to be the last plug I give for it, so forgive my shameless self promotion. But I was very pleased to have been asked to do it, and for it to have been published in the end, so here’s a last link for it. It’s on the Disquiet site now, go take a look.
Music Tech Pitch 4.5, November 2015
So another MTP4.5 goes by. This one was really good. I had a great panel of judges and an a great bunch of start ups who were pitching. The debate and questions were insightful and I think that the start ups all felt that they’d had a good chance to get their ideas across.
Interestingly the audience and the judges winners were identical this time, which I’m not sure I’m seen happen before.
Getting ready to fix up an old iBook G4
I plan to use the old iBook to run older software and maybe even an old emulator or two as well. I’ve upgraded the RAM to 1.25GB now and it’s pretty good.
Almost halfway through Movember now
Here we are almost half way through Movember already. So please take a look at my Movember page, it’s here.
If you can support me with a donation I’d really appreciate it, if not, please feel free to share it.
Processing 3 and the new sound library
The last time I used Processing I was messing around with the minim library for sound. Now, in version 3, there’s the new sound library and it looks (and sounds) amazing!
I’ve only played with it a little but so far the example code looks really straightforward to read and understand. I might even start making a few things myself! Who knows.
Just two weeks to go until the SoundLab Play Space
Things seem to be coming together now for the event. I think is going to be pretty awesome altogether. There are some amazing companies showing their technologies and some great people coming to talk as well.
There’s still a lot to do in the next two weeks but it’s going to be good.
