I've released a sound diary over the first 8 months with my 53edo musical instrument, the neod:

Drift, an online exhition, lets you discover the intricate strata of code and network that operate to deliver the content of a search. It reveals how these strata continuously evolve, even behind what seems a very well known, stable, familiar web site.

#Rust and #C++ together on #bela

It's been a long time coming, but here it is, all the steps to interface between C++ and Rust in a Bela project:

Getting to hold it in my hands will be so great! But neod sculpting in #Blender isn't so bad either. Many quirks yet to iron out.

v0.01a version of my music generation library is kind of sort of working*

As the old saying goes: Those who write music requiring a foot pedal will themselves have to build said foot pedal. And it worked!

The jankiness of serial communication in SuperCollider on Windows is quiiiite annoying! Writing an OSC relay for it now, hopefully it'll work, otherwise I'll have to rip the microcontroller out.
Seems like I'm not the only one with this problem:

Btw, the latest neod update brought the whole sound synthesis over to Rust. There's a tutorial for running sound synthesis in Rust on the Bela platform coming up. For now, let's just say it works very well, even better than expected.

🌲 🎶 ✨ Ever since the neod started forming in my mind, I knew two things: I wanted it to have strings, and I wanted to bring it out in nature. Last weekend these things finally coincided. With a new wave guide like string simulation, code still warm, and spring in the air (just barely), I went to one of my favourite spots close to home to spend some time with this lonely pine.

Experiments for an upcoming rethread.art work.

So happy that P2 was interested in my digital musical instrument!

The neod has existed for just over two months now. This sound synthesis transmutation has existed since Saturday. I'm starting to understand it a little bit.

Timbral explorations on my 53edo DMI

The neod is an incarnation of an idea that has been rediscovered by mathematicians and music theorists over and over during several thousand years.

Here, the start of Debussy's "La fille aux cheveux de lin" with a septimal third.
