Pd on Android

Getting Pd up and running on an Android device. Good to see it running, but I do wonder what I’ll do with it next.

The Sphero is on the go

I’m really intrigued by the idea of physical objects interacting with the real world, which is why I decided to get a Sphero ball. It’s a very interesting device, and there are a few apps that work with it, including especially Shapesynth, which makes some amazing sounds.

So I’m just getting started now on this, and starting to think about how I can use Sphero in a variety of different settings.

DS-10 again

I’ve no idea why, but I have a real bug for doing something on the DS again. I really fancy getting back to it for some reason. Perhaps it’s because it has become quite distant and retro, I’m not sure, but I may well indulge myself for a while.

Punchdrunk track: WT – A child no more

This is a track made in Bhajis Loops as part of a collection of 60 tracks that was to called ‘Punch Drunk’. I’m still working on getting the whole thing finished, but I thought that I’d share some of the tracks to see if anyone has any views on them.

The original plan was that there would be 60 tracks each of 60 seconds long, which explains why this track is only a minute long!

Music Tech Fest

Having been at music tech fest at the weekend I’ve been thinking a lot about mobile music again, and about Palm Sounds again too. There was so much talk about the mobile space it was unreal, and a growing amount talked about in terms of mobile music creation, to a degree anyway.

It revives a number of thoughts and themes that have been going through my head for a while now, and I’m wondering what to do about these ideas.
