#skateboarding achievement: I can ride down 1/3 of my driveway and navigate all those slight bumps and slope changes onto the street and stay on and also get on my board on a gentle slope I am such an extreme skateboarder now you don't even wanna know 🛹🔥

here's a picture of said 1/3, yeah I totally conquered that:

my friends sofy yuditskaya and sophia sun and i wrote about our generative desert karaoke #puredata-powered installation Karaoke of Dreams and we are talking about it tmw and it's gonna be pretty rad and also i'm dubbing it the #aimusic talk of dreams in my head

been out of music school for yrs and still have dreams about having so many pieces to learn for a final recital I haven't started yet :( but also dreamt I was with friends taste testing lemon marmelades one of them was making and we had to drive to get more lemons :) #dreamlog

i am pretty sure that condenser mics are called that because they condense the sound into little beans that you have to pour out after every recording session and they need phantom power bc i mean who else is going to condense the sound but tiny little powerful phantoms

a bit about my #tidalcycles process (and other people's processes) in the aftermath of #newmoon (both the live coding marathon and the movie) https://wp.me/p2EkFu-1BD

new #skateboarding achievement: skating down (imperceptibly gentle) downhill slopes in parking lots and making very wide turns out of them while going "omgomgomgomgomgomg" in my head

a recording of the #tidalcycles tune i used to close out my #caider set at #node20. i adapted it from an unfinished glockenspiel duo and i'm calling it snowblue passage

the ping pong anime is so good and is full of so many feels

a lot of my dreams have different pivot points throughout which is kinda neat structurally but also a bit difficult (but doable) to follow but also why am I doing a formal analysis of my dreams

workin up some old, some new (no borrowed but mb some blue) #tidalcycles jams for me and cai's 30-min #caider #algorave live sesh at @nodeforum next wednesday

the end product of my time collaborating with a bunch of talented, created folks during #artahack working with biometrics (through emotibit sensors) in dance (contributed with some #puredata sounds): https://artahack.io/blog/dancedemic-performance-battery-dance/

the parenthesized bits of track titles for the new deerhoof album kinda remind me of those "i wanna start a band, here are my musical influences" flyers you see posted...... and actually mb not too far from what i'd list if i ever posted something like that lol

Love-Lore 4 (Tenney/Silver Apples/Police/Kraftwerk/Williams/Feldman/Sun Ra/Parliament/Puthli/Morricone/Babbitt/B52s/Gubaidulina/Powell/Warwick/Graeber/Bailey/Jetsons/Braxton/Kurtag/Maxwell House/Stravinsky/Caetano/Nono/Penderecki/Cage/Brecht)

i'd totally respond to this flyer

outro sounding 92820-2 #tidalcycles snipperoobadoo

experimented with #shaders and reversing colors last year in #p5js that I should get back to at some point. had these ideas of the worlds of "nature" and "digital-sorta aesthetics" (vague ideas I know) intermingling in various ways...

short lil #tidalcycles snipperoobadoo

first day of learning how to skateboard: fell 4 times and kept landing on my wrist (prob not good) and scraped up the tail but i managed to get up and down the street...ish. this is pretty fun and should have documented it for when i win the x games next yr. then after i win, loafers patched up with headphone wire will become synonymous with skating and then vans will make a signature skate loafer for me.

got myself a cruiser and guess I'm now entering the getting into skateboarding part of my life. 2020 just keeps coming with more surprises am i rt

air is starting to smell like sitting right next to a campfire and feel a bit harsh... mb not so good to breathe in

little known fact is that the original term for going super saiyan was the legendre transformation https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adrien-Marie_Legendre#/media/File:Legendre.jpg
