- Laconicism – is a collection of procedural and interactive sound compositions.
The pieces are not finalized onto a static medium.
Instead, the collection is distributed as a computer software so that the works can be experienced in their intended multidimensional forms.

MoltenMaster and Distribution of Generative Art

In: Doodle| News| Personal| Train of Thought

28 Nov 2009

First, the news: I’ve released a SuperCollider Quark (called MoltenMaster) that attempts to simplify the playback organization (synchronization of resource allocation, playback initialization and resource deallocation across multiple pieces compiled in a bundle) of generative (and/or interactive) music/media pieces.
Generativity and interactivity in art is a hot topic and it is only going to get hotter. [...]

New Quark: NatureToolkit

In: Doodle| News

23 Nov 2009

Release frenzy today… But I have my reasons. NatureToolkit is a Quark that will include classes and frameworks that will hopefully make life easier for those, whose artistic media work tends to get inspiration from “natural processes”.
The only included class right now is LSys (but there is more to come! See bottom of this post…) [...]

New Quark: MultiTouchPad

In: News

8 Nov 2009

I’ve added a new Quark to SuperCollider Quarks repository that allows you to access the multitouch data from supported MacBook (and MacBook Pro) touchpads. It needs the tongsengmod application I’ve forked from the tongseng project, but once tongsengmod is installed, integration is seamless. The details can be found in the help file. Here is a [...]
