Barnaby Walters

Arranging atoms and pressurising air in a variety of manners, such as:

Pronouns: they/he

  1. Aaaah I only just realised the Eurovision final was tonight. Now, should I find a friend to watch it with, or try to figure out how my TV works?

  2. solarference: @BarnabyWalters awesome! have fun reverse-engineering Three Sisters - happy to give hints if you need them :) -n

    @solarference thanks :) Right now I’m most curious about the lyrics — are they from a source, or arranged? I can find many songs with similar structures or names, but none quite the same as yours.

  3. solarference: @BarnabyWalters which effect was it Barnaby? Saw your patch but couldn't work it out... -n #puredata

    @solarference beat slicing sampler, divides the recording up into n chunks and plays them back randomly. There were some bugs in the version I screenshotted (e.g. mistaking sample number for millisecond delay) which are now fixed. I’m currently working on reproducing as much of The Three Sisters as I can figure out from the recording.

  4. deray mckesson: The biker gangs have put out a call for retaliation on the police, who killed some of their members. And still no State of Emergency. Waco.

    Reading @deray’s tweets about biker violence in Waco and how it’s being reported, it took me a while to realise that “Waco” is a place, and not a denouncement of these events as “wacko”. Totally applies, esp. to the way the media is reacting :/

  5. Just realised that increasing the dimensions of an element onscreen when it is hovered over creates a “natural”, visual schmitt trigger effect.

  6. Roopa Gulati: Things I learnt last night: the dial on toasters has nowt to do with temperature. It's just a timer. I need to get out more.

    @roopagulati any wisdom to impart about what the funny floppy wire things on the top of my toaster are? I have never been able to figure out what they’re supposed to do.
