Feeling incredibly fortunate after an amazing GDC. We were absolutely floored by the response to Hauntii—it was such a joy and honor to talk to everyone who came by our booth, and meet so many wonderful people. Coming away with an IGF and a GANG award was beyond my wildest dreams. I'm so grateful 💚

Video coming soon about dynamic ambience design in #Hauntii. Here's a lil animation I made about using dot product similarity for ambience regions

One of my most used creative tools. I like the Melda one especially because the wet/dry mix makes neat phase effects. Just be careful crossing 0 Hz while signal is going through cause it can make super loud pops

ah, the bluesky hiccup kinda obscures the woodpecker 😑 I like this platform but the video implementation definitely leaves something to be desired

Another clip from that upcoming #Hauntii video: making odd, ghostly bird sounds with frequency shifting. The woodpecker at the end was such a happy accident

I'd love to someday see an integrated tool to add captions on the platform itself. It's kind of a hassle to create them somewhere else, so a lot of people will just skip it (even alt text gets skipped a lot). But SURELY we can at least get accurately timed captions without manually delaying them?

Interesting thing I learned while posting this—Bluesky's closed captions are pretty messed up! Couldn't get them to sync up after several tries, until I found a bug report from 15 months ago on GitHub, where someone explains you have to *delay* all captions by 1.45 sec

Bravest motherfuckers you've ever seen. They just saw a neighbor get murdered and still out there. Maybe let's see some local officials with the power to arrest show as much backbone as these voters PAYING YOUR FUCKING SALARY
Live updates: Around 200 people marched more than two miles from the scene of the shooting to Minneapolis City Hall, shouting “ICE out now!” after police hurried away from the scene Wednesday afternoon.
The crowd of is continuing to snake its way through downtown.

Live: ICE agent shoots, kills woman in Minneapolis
Video of the shooting shows an agent firing at a vehicle as it drives toward him. The governor and Minneapolis mayor called for calm after the incident. ICE said the agent acted defensively.
