Gimp h8 – Data preservation – El premio [es] – Sketchbookproject 2018 – SpectMorph – I distrust the miller.
I finally published animascii, a textfile-based ascii animator.
Writing it was a nice experience, making me acquainted with some lesser-known parts of cabal workflow.
Enjoy, feedback and bug reports welcome!
The resolution for 2018 is to read more good books. But why start with War and Peace, when you can have a gentler foray into becoming a bibliophile?
From linux-audio-users, a reinterpretation (and orchestration) of the German Christmax carol “Oh Tannenbaum” in minor, by Jeanette C.
+: Stonetelling, Why I hate LaTeX, New old thing.
Two interesting repositories:
CHR-ROM) games. (edit: from Stefano: “the latter link reminded me of something I saw this summer in Berlin’s Spiele Museum: ROM CHECK FAIL”).The Case for Numerical Music Notation, a modern day “basso continuo” (three parts: 1, 2, 3) by Phil Nice.
Addendum: Drawing mental illness, No means no, At Sea off Kazusa, Intermezzo.
Inconsistent net is no fun, have a link dump:
FVP, with a very inky ink and on quite slick pages.
Bigger version of the mess.
A Young Man Goes to a Dance / Are these giant preistoric trees? / A Braille & ASCII map renderer.
Robot 1 in the Ship of Doom, a short and sweet ZX Spectrum game by Mat Recardo (with by Sergey Tosov).
Play it with your favourite Speccy emulator. Controls: ZXP. You have 5 minutes to save Robot 1!
Earthenware that looks like Jar-Jar Binks.
Easter egg puzzle (so simple, so deceptive, I failed).
Moving by Night, by Misja van Laatum.
Why do all records sound the same / Studio tour (with braille display) / The traveler.
Last weak I discovered a terrific Linux/OSX organ emulator, Aeolus. In the words of the author, Fons Adriaensen, the aim is “to arrive at a synthesised (i.e. not sampled) pipe organ sound that should be good enough to make an organist enjoy playing it.”
I can vouch for both the “good enough” and “enjoy playing it” parts. I tested the synthesis playing a small choralprelude by Walther on a single midi keyboard (errors mine):
The Four Seasons, recomposed by Max Richter (Max Richter has disassembled them and fashioned a new composition from the deconstructed pieces. Using post-minimalist procedures to extract fertile fragments and reshape the materials into new music.).
Super Kaiju Dunk City, if you love guitar-hero-likes.
When you are braingstorming and your teammate sends you this mockup.
Putting <3 back into RogueLikes!
Two bits from Chiesetta di Nosedo.
Pity I didn’t note down the words from the ephigraph on the right, but it is a funerary inscription of someone named Car…: apparently very famous in his time, apparently dead in 536 A.D..
Always nice to visit something fascinating nearby you were not aware of.
Haskell day, exhausted & happy as only an Haskell day could get me. Thanks to Mikamai and LinkMe for hosting this!
Bonus, I snatched some dark green ink.
