Surfing in Munich

Surfers on the Isar or Eisbach canal in Munich, Germany. It was bizarre seeing people surfing in the middle of a city but the river was perfect for it. Unfortunately, the wave seems to have disappeared recently and they don’t know why.

I've created ebook versions of my hopeful climate fiction "Standing Wave" and "Running AMOC", both EPUB and PDF. You can also read them on line at https://selfedge.org.uk/fiction/

"Standing Wave" is about a team of fedizens searching for a long-lost climate model. The main actors are a Mongolian Soviet researcher and his US counterpart, some time in the 1970s.

"Runnning AMOC" is about the impending collapse of the Gulf stream. The protagonist is an Indonesian-Dutch woman of around fifty.

A short clip of a work in progress, which will eventually be diffused over 4 or 8 speakers, accompanied by an indeterminate number of listener-controlled Bluetooth/phone speakers, running a simple web-browser sine wave instrument. As usual it never feels slow enough for me, so most of the time working on the patch is listening.

I just thought the standing waves set up in this stream of water coming out of my water pitcher filter were mesmerizing. Video is 4x speed so you can see the evolution of the wave pattern as the pitcher fills.

Having fun with standing waves on Desmos. I also discovered a gif export tool for desmos graphs that is amazing. It's called gifsmos.com. #standingwave #desmos #gifsmos

Some shots of a new two color zig zag wiggly double back square I made. We pulled these color tubes here at Pilchuck. Coated with phosphor I scraped from tubes here- Gold Ruby with red base backing and topaz with clear Brite yellow backing filled with moving beading Krypton. I ran out of coated tubing so the top is uncoated. Four color tests in one piece!

There are a few wonky bends in this one- but it's still for sale if anyone is interested.
