Mike CookI missed Algorhythms tonight because my arm is still completely busted, so to console myself I finished off an exciting feature for Magpie: audio reactivity. Thanks to a suggestion from another #picotron user on the Discord, I can have python listen to the microphone and send FFT data over TCP to Picotron, which means Magpie can listen to music!! So excited. Video accompaniment: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8_NiMAEsP14
Magpie v1 is actually very close to release, the thing stopping me from putting it out is actually needing to write tutorials, text for the itch page, etc. But actually most of the tool and interactions have been cleaned up - it's messy, but functional.
I'm also waiting for research ethics to clear something for me, as I'd like to get feedback from people who use it to write about the tool one day!
