This is one of those pieces that took time to settle before I could write it.
It gathered—quietly—until it began to take shape.

This essay lives somewhere between structure and fragility,
between a world that holds together
and a self that must learn to affirm it anyway.

Fechner. Tillich.
Two ways of thinking unity—one serene, one trembling.

I didn't know that October 22 was "Fechner Day" (the founder of psychophysics)

If you don't know who Gustav Fechner is, you can read more about him here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gustav_Fechner

If you're near Besançon and interested in auditory science or psychophysics, check out this upcoming series of talks at the FEMTO-ST Institute https://neuro-team-femto.github.io/revcor25/
I'll be giving one of them, looking forward to great discussions!

Worked on improving camera recordings in PsychoPy today. Some of the optimizations I made to movie player are now being applied to the camera interface with excellent results

I finally got to work on a prototype for the audio/visual synchronization tester I designed a few years back

This device is used to measure the lag between the presentation of a visual stimulus on screen and a sound that's associated with it

This design will be open sourced and uses widely available components

I bought loads of capacitors for work and I still don't have the right value for this project I'm starting :/

The project is a tone detector module for a device which measures audio/visual/input lag on computers used for psychophysics experiments. It also allows us to benchmark software techniques that correct for synchronization errors
