The questionable joy of collecting old hardware: had great fun yesterday making new reverb presets with my mighty Dynacord DRP 20 reverb, just to learn today that they are all gone - the memory battery needs to be replaced. Meeeh :-( At least the unit is easy to service.

If you are in Paris - go there! I left the exhibition with a big smile on my face and tons of new ideas. James Turrell is amazing, and the works shown are fantastic. Totally blown away once again.

Just when you think Donald Trump cannot sink lower or be more shameful, today he's blaming Ukraine for the war and calling Zelinsky a dictator, when he knows perfectly well that Putin's constant re-elections are put-up jobs.

A gentle reminder that the user of free social media is not in control: Instagram deciding to change preview from square to 5:4 format. I know why I host my own webpage and have everything I really care about there...

roberthenke.com/technology/8... Nerdy stuff, now with a dedicated page. Sound snippets will follow, and potentially more in-depth code examples for snare, hi-hat and such things.

I work on a new laser based audiovisual performance. Currently revisiting some laser drawing code which I originally developed for a special NYE event in Modena, Italy in 2023.

for the nerds, a PDF explaining in detail how the kick drum sounds of my 'CBM 8032 AV' performance is are made. Soon this will be a webpage with sound examples and graphics of the waveform. The preliminary / work in progress PDF is here: roberthenke.com/8023AV-Kick.pdf #mos6502 #assembler #dsp

Symbolic picture. I like nature, it inspires me. Working on a new big audiovisual live performance. I don't know yet when it will be ready. Writing lots of code, because I am very specific with what I want. There is nothing I can or want share, but I can share I am making progress.

I'd rather post about music, audiovisual art, stuff like that. But I just watched this and the world should take notice: ( also btw. the fact that FOX news did cut out this segment ... ) www.youtube.com/watch?v=SAAH...
