Long: my music projects
I produce music at a glacial pace, but over the years it adds up. These are the bits that are available online:
https://idlab.bandcamp.com is my old electronica / noise project.
https://mustardallegro.bandcamp.com is the math-surf band where I played bass. Only the first two records (Swindon Oasis and Badgerdebon) have my playing on them, but I helped compose some of Dwarf Shortage.
https://almap.bandcamp.com is extremely minimal noise / ambient.
https://awhaleslantern.bandcamp.com is a series of Fediverse collaborations, I'm on two of those as Pulsing Bulb.
https://camembertelectrique.bandcamp.com/track/lullaby-for-suspended-animation is an ambient track on this enormous compilation.
You can find other Pulsing Bulb tracks (my most recent stuff) on http://open.audio
Everything is free to download. I accept donations, but am very happy if you just listen.

New server, new #introduction.
I'm Hugh. I live in south-west #England with my partner and children. I work as a web developer, and contribute to #Rustodon.
I make #music occasionally. I've played bass in bands, but mostly I compose weird music solo on a computer. I contributed a track to the second A Whale's Lantern compilation by musicians of Mastodon, collaborating with Mascha.
I speak some #deutsch, and less #francais.

Only hackers with good taste need open
My #color theme for #VSCode and concfg is now public. If you like a subtle dark palette, give it a shot. I'll add more formats in time.

I've opened up the repo for my #mico controller - a tiny and cheap 14 bit midi controller based on the #raspberrypi #pico. It includes the hardware design, the firmware, a 3d-printable enclosure and a SuperCollider package for an easy to use interface.
yooo my song "lift you up" is out today on inspected.
all streaming platforms + bandcamp
give it a listen :>
Happy #MakeMusicDay / #WorldMusicDay!
Do any #MusicMakers have anything planned, or simply some music to promote?
Maybe you fancy having a go at a #MastoRemix (or have some some source material)?
No need for polish, just have fun! Check my silly go at a @MalteHollmann's #SixtySecondsSounds piece at https://fosstodon.org/@axwax/108431850183192724 where we discussed the idea.
Whatever it is, I'd love to see my timeline filled with great #music today ! 🔈 🎶
Let's tell a story, hm? This one's from English history. It's the story of that celebrated King of England, King Louis.
What's that? You've never heard of a King Louis of England? Well, that's not surprising. You won't find him on any official list of English monarchs. He's been written out of history.
So let's talk a little about Louis, the king who never was. ( 🧵 )
Google's LaMDa is the AI behind numerous chatbot products. It's main engineer Blake Lemoine suspected 10 days ago, that LaMDa could have reached a level of intelligence reaching sthg similar to conciousness. His last conversation with the AI - about the nature of sentience and before Google officials put him on paid leave - is an exciting read, in fact regardless of actual sentience being present or not.

I've spent 30+ years unconsciously supressing stims so I'm only just learning how beneficial stimming is to me for various things. I'm starting to understand different stims as valuable in different situations: emotional regulation stimming is very different from focus-aiding stimming.
What stims do folks find useful particularly for helping you focus when you're an otherwise passive observer of e.g. a lecture/presentation?

Perfect score today. The top is really tricky, though. I started from the bottom this time.

In English, Latin, Hindi and many other languages, the Proto-Indo-European word ‘*udros’ — ‘water creature’ — became the word for the otter. In Greek, it became the word for a sea monster (‘hydra’). [📷: Cloudtail the Snow Leopard, CC BY-NC-ND 2.0] https://t.co/W6XyukSPrA
