Welcome to the new all hooting all flapping website!

We finally finshed the new site - now you can follow the latest developments in the Flow project or sign up to our seasonal newsletter, 'Log on' start blogging about your m-Log and many other interesting things such as rss feeds and all that...

 

Paul's m-Log

Paul Vickers who finished the first m-Log on the first workshop a year ago sent me this great image of his log.

We have another workshop coming up at SPACE Studios in London Saturday 15th and Sunday 16th of May. 

More details will be coming next week. Please get in touch if you are interested in coming along.

 

 

Gæoudjiparl and his sticks


While we were in Lausanne we saw Goodiepal's fantastic lecture about "Radical Computer Music". I ended up swapping a set of sticks for his book "Radical Computer Music and Fantastisk Mediemanipulation".

I can highly recommend trying to get a copy of this little book and trying to compose a  MORT AUX VACHES EXTRA EKSTRA.

Goodiepal has informed us that the sticks will be on show amongst a load of other musical curiosities in a gallery in New York some time early 2010. 

The most advanced m-Log yet ?

Well it has to be between Leafcutter John's log and this one developed by Seth Ayyaz during the last m-Log workshop at SPACE. Weighing in at just 30 g this m-Log is packed so full of sensors we really had trouble gluing it shut. It also needed an extra diode and cappacitor to get it stable but now its running well.

The spec:
1 Accelerometer
4 push buttons
4 toggle swithces
1 wooden knob
1 infrared sensor 
4 LDRs 
And a mysterious hole.

 

The new salinity sampler sequencer

The idea behind this was to try and construct a machine that would dip electrodes in water samples of varying salinity. The notes vary depending on how much electricity passes through the electrodes. So the notes vary according to the saltiness of the water and we can listen to the variations. 

Kind of works but needs lots of refining.
