So, I got tired of starting up my bloated music app (i.e. "LogicPro X", the industrial strength DAW), which is made for recording and mastering, just to fool with my synths, using my own timing systems. Since I'm a programmer, naturally I made a python MIDI program! tl;dr: clock-it.py
So I bought a MIDI Rock "Stone" joystick controller...
For a long time, I have wondered how to easily know what chords have a diatonic function in two different keys (modes). This is known as a "common" or "pivot" chord. Naturally, being a software engineer, I wrote a program to answer this for me! (tl;dr: the mode-pivot program)
I decided to see if I could intercept signals from my MIDI controller and control my Linux machine. YES! (tl;dr: capture-midi)
I recently read about the 13-sided "Einstein shape" (or hat/t-shirt tile) on a hexagonal grid of kites. Being a curious cat and programmer, I had to find out more! (tl;dr: hexagon-grid and animation at the bottom)
