The masters for my fourth album sound excellent. I won’t say more yet, but a well-known name is involved. The release is already getting close 🤫

The image shows the sky that morning around 6 a.m.

I’m performing live stream as a guest at the FixC + Open Screening event, which is physically taking place in Finland. It’ll be about a 15-minute set.

Here’s probably the finally finished version, ready to share - Sound Index: a macOS desktop application that scans DAW projects (Ableton), extracts sample references, builds a searchable database, and enables Finder comments.

It should be sufficiently functional.

I’m building a Python app for this.

It currently eats Ableton project files, finds them in folders, and maintains a database where sounds can be filtered and comments added for quick viewing in Finder.

I’ll share this later on GitHub.

I have collected the ‘ghosts’ of night-spiders. As they move toward adulthood, they leave behind a subtle biomechanical apparatus devoid of vitality.

The final shot of today’s spectacle, just seconds before the ray of light vanished. If #photography has taught me anything, it’s this: take the photo when you feel it, or when the light is right. Later it’s easier to decide whether it was worth it.

Hurricane Erin passed 300–400 km offshore, leaving a restless sky in its wake. Just before 6 a.m. the clouds tore open for a few fleeting minutes. When the light comes right, there’s no time to waste.

The planet’s narrow-minded idiocy could be undone by basic curiosity, if only it were allowed. Peak self-sabotage.
