I’m excited to announce that my new book, _The Irrational Decision_, is now available for pre-order from Princeton University Press.
The Irrational Decision

Felt appropriate to post (you'll hear it within the first minute of the most recent "hit") that I've begun pushing the last 40 or so "Greatest Hits" onto their secondary home (after TIMJ went dark 10 years back) at soundcloud.com/kfw/sets/greatest-hits in time for that July 4th weekend marathon...

we're starting work on AMYboard, a cheap python synth as a 10HP module PCB (& can be used standalone)

Write your synths or effects in Python. All the AMY stuff you love -- Juno6, DX7, sampler, filters, reverb -- stereo SPDIF, 10vpp audio in & out, 2 CV, MIDI, SD card, I2C for your knobs/displays

New AMY stuff: a fully synthesized piano voice using analyzed partials. It sounds amazing and runs on the tiniest microcontrollers. The blog post runs python itself locally including live synthesis! Please check it out
