working on the beginnings of a little Forth-like programming language! calling it "hither" bc why not.

something really satisfying about programming a programming language.

Just finished this month's print for my patreon print club and I'm pondering color options. What do you folks prefer? black and white, the same light green as the first print or a cool blue for the antarctic setting?

Here is Grid, the ACME-inspired text-editor I've been building lately: https://nightfall.city/grid/ Hope you enjoy it 😀

I also did a quick peek video:

For my #DecemberAdventure, I've optimized uxnfloppy so that it runs at 60 fps most of the time at 640x480! Here is a video of bunnymark.tal running on the laptop. It can draw around 2000 sprites before it goes below 60 fps!

picking up alv a bit again while trying to focus on the original purpose I had in mind, mangling MIDI and OSC in real time to animate visualizations.

I finally completed the varvara Screen device yesterday (with a lot of help from the #uxn irc channel (mainly @neauoire)! not sure what's up with the physics in this demo, but look at those sprites 😀

some days ago i went into the grove of a villa near the apartment where i live to recored some ambience for the Elmet Brae, then overdubbed it with orca sinewave organs

really looking forward to listen to all the entries =D

#theWorkshop

Spent the evening implementing basic support for varvara's screen device in uxnfloppy!

there are two week I'm trying to learn blender with some online courses, here's a battletech madcat

if you aren't a huge fucking nerd you might not be aware that we spend way too much time debating the pros and cons of operating system types that will probably never leave the basements they were dreamed up in.

in my case, the design is of such an obscure type that there isn't much literature on the topic outside a handful of computer science research labs. as you can imagine there's no common parlance for something so odd, but I use the term "language kernel" or langkernel. not to be confused with an exokernel, through they can share some minor design patterns ^^

I wanted to check out Lynn's chibicc-uxn project, and this is the result of one day of work with their library, it's really fun 😀

it's not yet playable but it has the setup for it

#uxn #theWorkshop

added LFO modulator/tremolo to my orca sampler folderkit, also doubling as clocked one-shot envelope

Added notes to the music theory section on the circle of fifths. #theWorkshop

Finally redid my site.
No more JS.
Static generator written in Python (not OS yet)
Whole site is built from Markdown .txt files where folder hierarchy reflects page relationships.
Custom markdown extensions convert internal wiki links.

My 3D projection library for Uxn is complete!

Features points, lines, variable FOV, adjustable view frustum, screen space clipping, and 16 bits of precision, everything in around 4 kilobytes of bytecode.

The shape of ADD2

#uxn #theWorkshop

Got the basics implemented with some random coloration, glyph selection, weird glitchy thing… and it's listening for the kick drum coming from Orca (no sound in video though). Next up is rendering images from sets using these glyphs 🫣 …still not entirely sure what I'm doing…

Initial proof of concept for MIDI signal via Orca being brought into a cellular automaton and used to manipulate the simulation.

^YouTube

Idk what I'm doing exactly, but I got Conway's Game of Life running in the command line and now I'm thinking about how cellular automatons could be manipulated by signals coming from other apps. Specifically interested in what it would be like to have "living" visuals that are in some way representative of the patterns being sent from #orca
