Hey- am asking for @blindmouse88 we are both curious now. can you use a guitar as a midi controller? how do you do it in a way that is #Accessible to #blind folks? I did google but the software recommended is not accessible with #screenreaders. We are looking for something that will interface with #Garageband for #mac. Thanks in advance. #tech #question

Now the rush of term-end is behind me, I can afford time to document some of the projects I’ve been up to between my Academy studies.

FLUIDITY is an experimental short film improvised one weekend in February 2026 with the Academy of Live Technology’s Postgraduate cohort, at the behest of visiting Multimedia Artist-Engineer Diana Scarborough. A Cambridge-based creative whose work blends science, art, and ecology, her Sounds of Space project is an inspirational extension of concepts I’ve used in my own work.

The film presents a meditation on water, flowing around a spoken word performance by student Dami Olagbegi. Soundscape and Foley were recorded by contact mics and hydrophone, capturing the sound of underwater instruments, percussion, and melting ice. Suitably swirly visuals were then evoked by filming a tray of water through an old-style desk projector while adding different colour pigments with a pipette.

My part was to blend these elements together, along with separately supplied stock footage and a little alchemical flavour. Layering down a simple synth soundtrack to mix the recordings into form, and editing the video against an unyielding deadline.

Using GarageBand and DaVinci Resolve on iPad to record and edit, and shooting the projections with a SmallRig-ged iPhone, the tools to hand ensured swift turnaround from idea to image. Although I could have used some extra time to polish things properly on home hardware, I’m happy with the raw honesty of the result.

It was a great pleasure to be invited to work alongside the Postgrad students, to get a feel of what awaits my own Masters journey, and to play without expectation for the joy of creating art.

My first demo track under the alias #UtzPunk is now on #SoundCloud. I'm working with #GarageBand on my phone. The song is not mixed properly, but maybe I'll leave it that way. What do you think؟

@ardour as a long time GarageBand/Logic Pro user, I’m wondering if I can easily switch projects back and forth between Ardour and Mixbus?

I’m extremely interested in finding/supporting open source alternatives (on principle, especially in this age of subscriptions and enshittification) but it also seems like Mixbus might be a bit more user friendly?

Czas na zaległe #poznajmysie #introduction! Jestem #millennial urodzony w #warszawa, dzieciństwo spędzone w towarzystwie #amiga, dużo #gry ale też konsumpcji #demoscene i #muzyka (https://www.last.fm/pl/user/kogz). Gdzieś w międzyczasie wskoczyła fascynacja #linux oraz #gitara. Zabawa w #produkcjamuzyczna na poziomie hobbystycznym pozostała do dzisiaj. Zacząłem pracować jako #sysadmin, ale szybko przekształciło się to w #sap. Założyłem #rodzina, przeprowadziłem się do #chotomów, mamy #Dzieci i #bostonterrier. Poza prowadzeniem #dom, najczęściej robię #fotografia, grywam na #gitaraelektryczna i wyjeżdżam na #koncert bądź #wycieczka. A no i sporo oglądam #Film i #serial, ale kto nie. Chciałbym zrobić kiedyś dobrą muzę, próbuję. Wrzucam filmik z ostatnim całkiem udanym podejściem w #garageband. Jeśli coś z tego iskrzy dla ciebie, zaobserwuj mój profil i daj znać o sobie! :-)
