Here's the latest post from my blog! I discuss making "composite" sounds using FFT spectra for part of a current composition project.
My site is all hand-written, but I found that drafting as Markdown in my Joplin notebook, and then converting to HTML in the terminal makes me much more inspired to write.
I managed to load the "Jukebox" #BASIC program into my #TRS80.
Using an "Elektrosluch" (https://bit.ly/3qFfbof) and PC speakers, I am able to playback the tunes without an #UHF receiver. It sounds a bit de-tuned. This could come from the electronics of the "Electrosluch" or from a speed-up of the TRS80 under LDOS with more RAM and the #FreHD extension.
For the 16th Prompt Of Mathober: Index, IndexOfBlips takes a former piece of SonicPi Code and adds an Index of 3 to various lines. The index is done by the following symbol : “**”

The Ordered List
Wants to Be Seen, Wants to Be Heard
They Decided to Split Into Thirds
For They Believe in the Power of Three
The Power That Their Voices Combine
Will Be Able to Move Mountains Or At Least a Tree
That is the Wish From the Ordered List
On the SC forum, "dietcv" linked to Peter Worth's PhD thesis, Technology and ontology in electronic music: Mego 1994-present. Worth offers some fascinating "archaeological" details in the parts I skimmed. E.g., Pita's album <i>Seven Tons for Free<i/> was not made with a computer, but with a hardware sampler and sine waves from a test tone CD. Worth also discusses apPatch, a SuperCollider patch which Pita and others used, in some detail https://etheses.whiterose.ac.uk/26172/#ComputerMusic#SoundSynthesis
Just a reminder that you can dig into the process behind and discoveries from some of @BBCRD's biggest projects with the Case Studies page on MakerBox...

"... A travel developes that leads far beyond all accostumed. The illusion should not have been the wandering of Odysseus, but the fantastic experiences and views of a voyage that from time to time crossed the borders of the known world. The voyage ends in the head or maybe it starts there; confusingly the singing of the sirenes mixes with the rush of distant seas."
