I had forgotten all about this book and found it this morning so it was my companion on the train this morning, and there’s good stuff on using text in there, so hopefully I’ll get a scene done in a few days.

This morning’s Music App (part 1)
Aurora Sound Studio has been around for a while. First on Windows Mobile and now on iOS. It’s a great music making app, and one that I’ve too long overlooked. So I went back to it this morning, albeit briefly, and was surprised to find some nice stuff in there that I must have made ages ago.
It’s always nice to get a little surprise like that and remember (or not remember) tracks partially made and sitting around just waiting for you to rediscover them.
Here’s that Grid Music track
Processing and text
I’m getting back into making processing stuff (as you can see from the sketch below), so next I’m hoping to do something a little more ambitious, using text for something more interactive.
Anyway, it’ll take me a little while to get my head around text in processing,
Making stuff with Grid Music
I was playing with Grid Music this morning and what a great app it is. I’ll put up a little track I made soon.
Where’s that Thingamagoop? Oh yes, here it is!
I posted this to instagram earlier, but I liked it so much that I thought I’d put it here too.
And that’s on Android too
I meant to say that that processing sketch also works really well on my Android phone under 2.2. Nice to be able to run this stuff on Android too.
More Processing

This is a simple sketch I was fiddling with last night. I know it doesn’t do much, but it does show a tiny bit of what you can do with processing in just a few lines of code. Of course, what I’d really like to do with processing is more audio related and I’m hoping to explore more of this soon. Thought I’d share though.
MilkyTracker on my Android San Francisco
I’d forgotten how hard this app is to use, and the Android version really isn’t any easier. I may have to give up on this one for now.
4th Doctor: Destination Nerva
What a great story to start off the 4th Doctor on Big Finish. I really enjoyed this story. A good solid episode which delivered just what I was after. Excellent stuff Big Finish. This is exactly what Doctor Who is all about.
