Awesome! Bet you aced it all too. Here’s to many more such days. Find memories of those Gatwick sleeping of pods. Or maybe you get something fancier 😂

Thanks all!

Bravo on the important paper @tuomaseerola.bsky.social and team!

@michelle-phillips.bsky.social , hello from a TISMIR rep (current EB, incoming EiC) in listening mode! Let’s share notes sometime!

Some shared issues, some differences. Lots of open code/data at least.

And singing along is frowned upon for some reason! Even in the good bits!

Sounds cool!

If composed out echo effects are in scope I have a couple of attack-sustain examples in my orchestration chapters for Open Music Theory.

Britten, Sibelius, Debussy if I remember right. If that’s of interest I’ll dig up the URL for you.

In addition, key to transparency is effective attribution and that’s vv difficult to achieve.

Eg a mash up = many samples = countless contributors, poorly documented in metadata.

We’ve seen cases before where well-intentioned policy ends up adversely affecting only the well-intentioned.

Doubly good of you to come to my department seminar in that case! Thanks!

… do I owe you some email triage now?
November 25, 2024 at 10:29 PM
Wholesome and laudable! Keep it up!

😂 nice take 🤣

Starter pack listing live music venues, friendly bars, interesting museums.

Oh wait … that’s a travel guide

Thanks for the encouragement!

I’ve had one in the “book inbox“ waiting patiently behind too many others for too long.

It’s time!

And maybe time too for a KCL book club (only fiction allowed)

+1. I was intrigued to hear how the dynamic between @ednewtonrex.bsky.social as keynote and certain companies in the room would play out. Didn’t disappoint.

Thanks for putting this together @nikicheong.bsky.social

Welcome 🤘🎸

Thanks! So shall we keep the league tables but insist on plotting them with error bars? Or is that just an undifferentiated smudge of overlaps?

Welcome!

I think the first record I ever owned was one of yours!

Now to think 💭 of any conductor jokes that’s suitable for writing down in public …

… Flaubert would probably not think much of east anglia … not a lot of hills here either and certainly not a lot to boast about in the Neufchâtel cheese department 🧀

Also doubly on-brand for you as a cellist … going “higher up” the fingerboard …

😂.

Also comes with a “how’s your PhD going” vibe?

Found any ancient cities complete with incongruous manuscripts yet?
