computer music site, that leans towards linux/open source software a bit.

visualizing changes in document history
Not sure if thats actually useful, but the results look cool.
Found via a article at NooFace. In
there words “The purpose of this site is to support the exchange of ideas about next-generation user interface”. Kind of interesting.
Various musicians/programmers that seem to be at least attempting to
make music with open source software.
up2date Lite
Since it’s out in rawhide and the third fedora beta, I can mention that up2date no
longer requires use of RHN. It actually points at a yum repo by default for
fedora/rawhide now.
Maybe this will make it more generally useful for folks. That would be cool.
Partially linux based noise/improv/sound|video collage artist.
wonder if there would be enough interested in a mini
festival for “people who make weird music with free/open source software”.
But sadly, for whatever reason, the artist/musician community
generally has little or no interest in open sources software. That’s
always disappointed me a bit, especially people doing indy art/music,
but alas. So, I suspect there is a very small overlap of people
who would be interested in both weird music and free/open
source software.
My car broke down saturday while shopping for a costume for
The Barristers Ball at Kings.
Ended up in a pseudo 70’s detective outfit. Since my car was
not starting, I ended up riding with NSD, which was good, because
then it gave me an excuse to drink too much. I think about twice
a year is my limit for excessive drinking. I enjoyed myself.’
Having your car not start, and suddenly realizing that you
don’t have many tools with you, and even less idea about
how a modern car works, kind of sucks. Apparently something called
a “automatic shutoff sensor” was somehow bad, and
was causing my car not to start. So my initial impression
of “oh crap, theres no way I can fix this myself” seems
to have been true, since I have never heard of an
“automatic shutdown sensor”, nor would have any idea
how to diagnose that, or where it is, or how to replace it.
Of course, more than likely, someone plugged in a diagnostic
anaylsis util and a big blinking light said “replaces the
automatic shutdown sensor, it’s all busted”, but still.
One more excuse to start looking for a vintage mustang
again perhaps.
But if nothing else, I enjoyed the party, and I found a
speak&spell for $2 to try circuit bending.
And not having a car for even a day or two in Raleigh sucks.
Almost finished the cheetah flip. Which, if nothing changes, might result
in an interesting new up2date feature for folks. If not, well, then not…
Today was definately a “cheatah flip” kind of day.
