Just checked my results. Got an A for Electronica. *Pats self on back*

yeah, Debussy was amazing. aside from that, those of us who have used software sequencers will appreciate it.

Tenori-On

Monome (via livejamie)

I embedded a different clip.
Here are two audio sets from the inventors of Monome, Tehn.

I am going to reblog this because I might be able to add information. I’m not too sure, but it looks like this is exactly the same kind of device as the Yamaha Tenori-On.

For anyone who is interested, my next post will be a video of the Tenori so you can see how similar both devices are.

Also, both devices would have been programmed with Max/MSP. I am studying Max/MSP at university. Man, I get so geeky with this stuff.

9 following..

thanks to all of you who added me. i’m sorry i haven’t been online much. the web where i live now has only just been set up… as in they’ve taken the details but it will take 14 days, apparently.

anyway a brief update on SB goings on:

over the past few days i have recorded demos of around 10 new songs. the first album isn’t ‘out’ yet but it will be soon. only waiting on one track to be mastered. as soon as that’s done (in around a month) it will be with you. for free. or not if you want to donate something to me. i’m taking direct influence from Radiohead.

the 2nd album is more of a journey. it’s has a clear theme and timeline. i’m more excited about it than the first album, because most of the songs are new.

thanks again to those of you who are reading this. i am following 46 people, so it takes me ages to get through it all! i love reading it all, though.

when googling for ‘slow burn’ i got to page 14 without one mention relating to me. if i google ‘slow burn simon’ i am in 4th place.

the only reason is because someone commented and used my name…

90 smokers

i am proud to be a part of this project. i was against the smoking ban because of all the right reasons. i could go on and on about what those ‘right’ reasons are, but i don’t want to bore you. suffice it to say that our civil liberties are being degraded, slowly but surely. you don’t have to be a smoker to realise that.

“a picture is worth a thousand words”  - apt in this case.

ninety smokers
