My biggest short term goal is Economic Democracy for everyone. A simpler wording would be "everything for everyone". Practical breakdown includes, but is not limited to: Free access to food, housing, clothing, education, transportation and computation. I am entirely anti capitalist and I regard any and all speculation as fundamentally unacceptable. My biggest long term goal is a fun times fully automated luxury space communism with optional mind uploading for all.You need to know that about me.

My name is Daniel M Karlsson. I am a Swedish composer living in Stockholm. I primarily write and perform computer music. I also maintain SuperClean which is an open source software project which aims to be a framework that makes organizing sound and making music in SuperCollider more accessible and fun. I work part time at the (royal) Institute of Art (aka Mejan) in Stockholm where I run Lyssningsrum, a 17.4 speaker dome housed in a purpose built room with extremely dry acoustics.

Something strange is happening in the vectorscope. That's feedback for ya. Wild and unruly. Never a dull moment.

I finished a track using a Soprano Recorder today. You can listen to the track, look at the code, download the samples I made and read a little log entry about the process here if you like:

The 20th Century Fox theme exquisitely performed on the Recorder. Pay close attention to the minute detailed work with microtonality in this interpretation:

You should post more.
I would read it.

If I'd "invented" the recorder I'd have been like:

"It's physically impossible to play a steady pitch on this instrument! Back to the drawing board I had better go!"

Imagine whoever invented the recorder way back in the before times going:

"Totally nailed it with this new instrument! Bring forth the Master Luthier Plaque that I am owed so that I may hang it upon my wall! Nay! Better! I am become God, yet I walk among you mortals still! Come to me! Look upon my deeds! I call it: The Recorder"

We should be doing everything needed to avoid a mass extinction event.

I have a very low threshold for thinking of

Trying out some stuff here before bed.

You too can learn to play the cigar box guitar at breakneck speeds if you call now and order this nine tape box set for only nine ninety nine.

I got a terminal recording working on my site. That's something at least.

Sleep now.

I am reading

Kim Stanley Robinson - The Ministry For The Future

and it is radicalizing me something fierce.

Absolutely no touching yer peepers during allergy season.
