It went well! Friday night on Thames:

My live improv set was on a boat as part of NAUS #2, an intimate live electronics night curated by Stephen Shiell as part of his residency on board. Two others on the bill amazed me: Tom Hirst playing his self-built synth modules very smoothly! and Mohammed Rowe with feedbacky textures and transients using Max!

I was the final one. A classic: Mid-set my GameBoy running LSDJ tracker ran out of battery! But I spontaneously switched to SameBoy LSDJ emulator alongside my Cardinal patch and it was OK to keep improvising. Some of the audience sat around on the floor to see things happen up close, which I liked. I definitely was not sending emails from the stage :D

A proper reflective writing with full sounds and credits is on its way on my new blog elifyalvac.com/blog

But for now, two mini excerpts merged in this clip: Cardinal and LSDJ.

Thank you @dreamer and @falktx - Cardinal live first time on a boat on the Thames worked out! And thanks again @mosgaard for recommendations!

this was my lucky access to Buchla modules on Monday. Complex waveform generator, verbos multi-envelope, and source of uncertainty. quad function generator also particularly fun. Recorded over an hour of fiddling with these toys ehem modules when a student was absent. Happy the conservatoire has these tools but not many students show interest unless prompted.

On another note normally I find it so hard to get on with keyboards as a non-piano player. Guitarist. Different background. There is much to appreciate here. I have dedicated an upcoming episode in my podcast on pioneering electronic music composers to Subotnick and Buchla. even ADSR envelopes can be piano based in most synths but look at this… So much space for experimentation. Open space.

Clouds (and clones) from the Ground Up: a reverbless explanation of an iconic module | Sound and Voltage

This is a great explanation of the classic module Mutable Instruments Clouds which is available in multiple clone options, as well as in VCV Rack ("Texture Synthesizer")

i really like Jeff's channel and his explanations are measured and not usually about any new hype

That’s how you are supposed to play WITH these toys… EHEM… modules when you have a short break between your teaching sessions at work

Ps: I don’t own these

On August 4, 2025, I became a grandfather to Vaia, my beautiful granddaughter. I found that so special that I decided to create a song for her. It has become a lullaby that invites communication with your (grand)child.

The artwork is based on Vaia's birth announcement.
