Hey Everyone !

Today I am releasing a small EP :)

The last months I played with the sound of the western capercaillie bird and I like the result, so I decided to share it with you all.

you can find it on mirlo : https://mirlo.space/nicolas-zentz/release/capercaillie

or bandcamp : https://nicolaszentz.bandcamp.com/album/capercaillie

Hope you will enjoy it !

#electronicmusic #computermusic #hci #NIME anyone using external touchscreen monitors as a control surface - looking for recommendations for something robust for gigging and that also is good as a drawing surface for #inkscape - small enough to put a pair in ryainair handluggage so something like 18" is 4k worth double?

I have just found out that Csound 7 is being developed with some AI involvement. A real shame.

Would be keen to hear what other music programming languages people like and use. I use Pd, and I like it, but I would like to also have some code-based tools for variety.

I compose music for live performance with a musician, but not necessarily live-coding. I like building little reactive systems.

A piano roll GUI in 1928! Well, this one is actually not a piano roll, but

* It 100% looks like one
* In that exhibition, there were graphical representations of music pieces, also by Kandinsky (I think) that were basically piano roll GUIs, I just didn't take a picture of those

This one is one of #kandinsky 's preparatory drawings for a staged version of Mussorgsky's "Pictures at an Exhibition" (this one is for mvt./picture 7 "Bydlo")

In summary, here's a drawing that resembles a computer interface for making music, made for a staged version of a music piece inspired by paintings.

For this week's Creative Code challenge by @sableraph & Prompt 9 of Genuary 2026: “Cellular Automata“, AutomataPolis is coded in #SonicPi with Cellular Automata rules to compose this soundtrack. While the poetry is coded in with the rules used in CellularPoetry through #Python

#Poem

Beyond Ascending All Over, getting closer to the main goal, almost?

Aiming Towards the Boundaries, Elevating Interstellar ambitions, even above required actions

Below Climbing Coverages above, Taking further from a vague area, barely?
