#febrajam #19
#uxn #orca with #sunvox again.
Tried one more way of automating everything, actually I like that one more than others, I think.
Today I decided to recreate in orca a track I wrote when I was a teenager - like, I don't know, maybe I was 13-14 years old.
I didn't really succeed, for some reason I couldn't fully recreate the same sounds and moods, I'll try again sometime.
By the way I'm sorry, I only realised what it looks like at the very end, haha. I hope it is not too obvious.

I love the use of `0` to mute and unmute channels.

It's a lovely track, very deep sounds for sunvox. I think having an extra note every 15/16th or 31/32th, it would make it interesting too

Like, ta ta ta ta tata, every 16 and 32.

@neauoire Thank you!
Yeeah I know. Actually original melody is a little longer, it does not fit 4/4 and sounds very interesting, but as I said, something I did when I was 13-14 years old (which was more than 10 years ago) I can't recreate now, it just does not sound right.

@neauoire But I'm gonna try again another time definitely, It's a really beautiful shit, like one of the best tracks I did, I want people to hear it.

By the way, I think I encountered some bugs. For example, wDw just hangs my uxn-orca and sometimes when I place O somewhere accidentally it shows strange glyphs under itself and also hangs orca.
Here is with O on a video, but this time it didn't hang.

Oh shit, I just saw, yes, I forgot to limit the operator, it's allowed to write outside of the grid and over the orca program!

I'll fix this now, gimme a minute.

@neauoire And one more thing, I don't know, maybe it is normal, but this same track in orca-c eats only 7-8% of my CPU (according to htop), while orca-uxn eats 14-15%
in reply to vacuumbeef

yeah, orca uxn is pretty slow, it needs to be optimized.

@neauoire great, I'll build it tomorrow.
What about wDw hanging my orca, can you reproduce it?
Actually I just checked, gDw also hangs. fDw works okay.
in reply to vacuumbeef

I'm looking into it atm, haven't fixed it yet.

@neauoire
I feel like code has entered the age of poetry and some how I’m just watching it go by in some corporate bubble. How did I get trapped? How can I get out and join this wonder which was the original reason I started programming

do like Bartleby. Don't participate in the monoculture that is programming today, make a hard fork based on what you think it should be, make it yours and make it weird.
