So a few more experiments with my Ukulele and a Mogees unit too. I used Flux:FX Play along with the Mogees app. I really like the results.
More Ukulele explorations, now with Mogees

A bit of fun …
I’ve been really enjoying the SoundBow app instrument. It’s very beautiful.

And then this arrived …
I have always wanted a PMC 100. A synth with a built in cassette deck! What’s not to like?
So it’s arrived, but I haven’t got it up and running as yet. I think that sonically it’ll almost certainly be a disappointment, but I’m ok with that. At least I think I am anyway.
When I’ve got it running, you’ll know.

Starting to find musical applications for Pebble
Whilst obviously I’d like some more complex apps for my Pebble, this is a good start, and its a useful app.
What I’d like to see for Pebble is something more like a controller or some kind of second screen for a music app, I think that there might be something in that.

Monitoring the battery on my Pebble
I downloaded this app to my Pebble Time a few days ago to see if it would be useful. I haven’t opened it since then until this morning. Looking at it now I can see that it probably is going to be one of those apps that stays around on my watch and is probably going to be very handy in the long run.
It’s not one that I’m going to consult every day of course, but once there’s a history built up of how the battery responds it could give some interesting insights.

Torchwood: Uncanny Valley
I listened to this yesterday. Not a bad story if a little one dimensional. The idea isn’t a new one, but, as often with Torchwood, was taken much further than I’ve seen it taken before, and possibly would have liked to have seen (or rather heard) it taken before.
I didn’t feel it moved the story arc on any further though, not really. That was a bit of a wasted opportunity in my view. There isn’t anything more known about the arc than at the start of this episode. I’ll stick with the series, but I’d like to see (hear) it move forward a bit more than it is right now.
