There is something that reminds me of a time long ago. That is pretty lame. What does it actually make me think of? It makes me think of midi tracks that could fit on a 3 1/2" floppy. It was super small compared to an actually audio file. That was definitely something. I can remember listening to Old Apartment by Bare Naked Ladies in midi. I am not sure of the synth it would have been played through.  There is something that I could look into. What was the hardware and the software that was making the sounds of my childhood? I was thinking about Decent and Tyrren and the incredible machine. The Incredible machine was actually a really fun game when I was a kid. I also used Microsoft's 3D movie creator program. I just read an article that it's aniversery just happened. - [[Resume]] - [[Project Statuses|Projects]] Many things interest me. I have a love for music and technology. With that love I have learned tools like [[Ableton Live]], Bitwig, Max MSP, Puredata, Logic, and other tools for music production and synthesis. I really don’t feel like I am a musician. But, I do feel like I have an understanding of the language of music and technology. I think in that way I can be a bridge between musicians and the technology that can help them achieve the sound they want. User interfaces and accessibility are other passions. Both hardware interfaces and software interfaces. Both of them make me happy. I like to critique them and make them. I am learning to use more modern 3D printing technology to facilitate my love of making things. [[Things I Have 3D Printed]] I like my dog. Here name is Ada. She is named after the first programmer.
