Check this out—some pictures of the Crackle Synth reboot that I worked on with Sybren Dans, Peter Edwards, and Kristina Andersen back in 2015. It was also mentioned during a keynote at NIME 2024.#cracklesynth #nime2024 #design #reboot #STEIM #prototype #electronics #musicalinstrument #synth
Last week, I went to Utrecht for the NIME conference, where I had the opportunity to present some of my research. But most importantly, I reunited with many dear friends from my @steim_amsterdam days (and made new ones!). I also got to see instruments I designed in the past, which are still in great shape @antioddo @albertoboem. It's been really great #nime #nime2024 #utrecht #netherlands #digitalmusicalinstrument #design #friends #steim #uidesign #research #unipd #cscpadova #deiunipd
On my way back to Iceland from #nime2024 I had such a great time, lots of inspiring performances and presentations and very nice to meet many old and new friends in person. It was sooo much fun to perform with the #sophtar on stage at TivoliVredenburg together with seven other musicians.
On my way back to Cologne from Utrecht, a week of #nime2024, so much (too much?) interesting input to digest, papers to read. I had such a great week, with a lot of insightful discussions with fellow artists, designers, musicians, engineers. Loved the keynotes, enjoyed great concerts, this week was a blast!
In addition, discovering Utrecht by #bike was so nice, riding along beautiful channels, experiencing all the great cycling infrastructure, for the first time i saw a pop-up guarded bike parking, not to speak of the bike parking information system, displaying the free parking slots in the numerous bike parking facilities.

a funny/interesting side note to the Period Instrument project I'm presenting at #nime2024 tomorrow, if you do an image search for "menstrual musical instrument" you get lots of pictures of lutes and horns, because i guess it converts the search to "period instrument".

it's a nice illustration of the political ecology of technology, I think...and provided a nice title for our project

I’m at NIME (new interfaces for musical expression conference) in Utrecht this week, presenting my work with Nadia Campo Woytuk on The Period Instrument, a menstrual musical interface. Presentation on Friday morning. The paper is not yet publicly available but let me know if you’d like to see it! #nime2024
Excited about being the opener, tonight at kikker. Had a great day with the sounds like touch performance coaching session. Quote of the day from one participant: «i felt like being into the vortex of a living clock».

I have arrived in Utrecht for #nime2024. Hope to see old friends and meet new ones and learn about lots of cool music-tech-interface work. Let me know if you're around!
On my way to Utrecht for #nime2024, this time with the extra challenge of bringing my performance gear in addition to the installation.
