One of the great all-time landmarks of computer music is getting much-deserved preservation and recreation effort, with Laurie Spiegel herself teaming up with Eventide. Here's some history, some gorgeous recent(!) uses of the software, and why this is insanely awesome.

Laurie Spiegel's Music Mouse, the Mac's first instrument, in Eventide reboot - CDM Create Digital Music

It's 1986. Laurie Spiegel creates something unlike any software available at the time -- an "intelligent," algorithmic composer you can play as an instrument, for Mac, Amiga, and Atari ST. You're at N...

Here it is — very happy to officially release the book that @marianoguerra.org and I have been working on for the past 2½ years. If you bought it in early access, thanks for your support! 🙏 If you haven't bought it yet, please check it out!!

WebAssembly from the Ground Up@wasmgroundup.com · last yr.

Excited to announce the official launch of our online book, WebAssembly from the Ground Up! 🎉 It's the book we wish we'd had 3 years ago. No messing with tools and frameworks. It's a hands-on guide to the core of Wasm: the instruction set and module format. Link below. 👇

Learn Wasm by building a simple compiler in JavaScript. No compiler expertise necessary. All the code is in the book; we'll take you through it step by step. Get your hands dirty and see for yourself what WebAssembly is all about.

The Ink team at Ink & Switch is starting something new — publishing our internal lab notes. These are (mostly) unedited, with all our puzzling and musing and prototypes unfiltered. Take a peek: inkandswitch.com/ink/notes/

We’ve begun publishing the internal research notes we write within the lab. Some of these newly published notes come from our archives of past projects, others are being freshly written about our latest work. Be aware that these are notes we write for ourselves. Sometimes they’ll mention a term or name that you won’t be familiar with. Many notes link to other notes that aren’t public (yet?). If you’re interested in our quest to build a dynamic notebook with programmable ink, or are working on something similar yourself, there’ll be lots to see and learn here.

“Wrap your tool in a game, make it fun to play with, and shield players from the kind of people who enjoy holding others to strict standards of Excellence. Present your creation as an Excellence-Free Zone, a safe space for glorious trainwrecks.” mkremins.github.io/blog/creativ...

Creative tools for non-creators

I keep coming back to the idea of tools that unlock creativity in people who don’t ordinarily think of themselves as creative. Yesterday, some of my scattered thoughts on the subject spontaneously cry...
