With the Dweek system, we divide the monthly schedule into dual-weeks, instead of 4 weeks to a month. With this system we’re afforded a nice intermediate weekend before Enday and Sunday (the last “weekend” before the dweek starts over).

A content-stream experiment that displays content that I’ve found on the internet and saved for inspiration.

I’ve been working on some versions of Adam Roth’s website that all explore this image “pile” idea. I’ve posted my iterations.

A musical synthesizer experiment built in Processing and ChucK. In this video of a projection on a wall, I’m shaking the rattle with the mouse. Each ball is synthesizing its own tone when it collides with its friends. The visual part was originally built in C++, and I wrote my own sound synthesis. Attempted, anyway — I got as far as writing an oscillator and a sin-wav, which sounded very bleepy. But once I realized the magic that is ChucK for programming sound, I re-wrote the visual rattle part in Processing, which now sends OSC signals to a ChucK program. The ChucK program receives a signal every time there is a ball collision — a signal contains the velocity of the collision which is mapped to sound volume. The sound being produced is also a simple sin wave, but it has a volume envelope, which gives it that nice chime sound.

My next step is to use a midi keyboard controller to create and control the rattle bits in a more musical way.

note to self : As I start posting things, it’s becoming apparent how scattered my concurrent projects are becoming. This is acting as a nice organization and each post acts like a milestone.

depth study. pencil, then oil on a piece of wood.

‘GES. SO?’ was some goofy nomenclature jtnimoy and I came up with as we were doing laser cutter tests, referring to the gesso’ing I was doing at the time. It was inevitable that the words were then typed into Illustrator, exported to Rhino, and “tested”.
