Me: "I want to buy a half-pedalling capable foot pedal for my Doepfer midi keyboard, which one can I buy that is compatible?"

Doepfer: "Ehh ask dealer, here's a datasheet for the compatible electrical specs"

Local dealer: "Meh ask thomann"

Thomann: "Meh ¯\_(ツ)_/¯"

Roland: We don't do electrial specs in datasheets for our products! ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Yamaha: We don't do electical specs in datasheets for our products! (ʘ ͜ʖ ʘ)

Cutting LP Records with our CNC mill. I am cutting _very_ slowly because of two reasons:
- The knife isn't intended for cutting LP records :)
- When playing the record with 78 rpm all the noise from the machine will be high pitched beyond human hearing

I wrote and used sndcut to generate the g-code: https://github.com/kallaballa/sndcut/

If you're in Rotterdam this July (22nd-25th), keep reading!

Together with Santiago Pinyol and Luke Murphy we're organizing this year's edition of Relearn in and around the city.
Relearn is an intensive IRL three day collective learning experiment with as many teachers as participants from all backgrounds and disciplines to learn from-and-teach each other, beyond the traditional paradigms of education from an interest in free culture and practices of care.

This year's edition will take place in and focus on Rotterdam. We aim to explore the importance of self-organisation and the use of experimental tools to build alternative systems and economies within the urban fabric of Rotterdam.
Apply by the 30th of June! Find the full text of the open call here -> http://relearn.be/2021/
