After 5 years of thinking about #modular workflows & learning synthesis, I've finished designing my 1st modular synth

It's a duophonic #synthesizer (or polysynth, dep. on the patch) that will also support my bass/guitar w/ effects & side-chain

The middle is the "finished" version. The top image represents the 1st version I'll have running (hopefully by this summer). The bottom is what it will look like at home in the studio, where Zoia & #Bastl Softpop2 live on a free-roam allotment (desk).

To those working on a masterpiece, or just trying to make it through Monday, I sincerely recommend Mr Grover Washington Jr...

Hi Mastodon; just joined, excited to be here!

I'm a multidisciplinary designer, architecturally trained, & for the past 5 years have been doing narrative design consulting, primarily for videogames. I do this through Silverstring Media, which I helped co-found, & which also makes #altgames like http://glitchhikers.com/

Expect media analysis, & also general excitement about 🎨 â›Šī¸ âœī¸ đŸ•šī¸ đŸŽŧ 🍸 🚲 â›ĩ 🎴

There's quite a lot of Stockholm Syndrome surrounding Twitter. I certainly feel it. I would be half the person I am now, and half as informed as I am now if I wasn't using Twitter.

I wouldn't have known that St. Louis has been protesting daily for a month about its most recent police shooting.

I would have know that Nazis showed up in my fucking town to harass an anarchists book sale.

But to conflate the growth I've had on through Twitter to somehow be caused by Twitter is silly.

Clearly there's a new wave of people moving to Mastodon. Lots of pundits wrote it off as irrelevant when the first wave of people switched and found it lacking.

But unlike centralized, for-profit startups, Masto doesn't require constant growth and capital to stay alive. It doesn't require one big wave, because it can survive and grow through multiple small ones.
