Jā Johnson did some really great hand gestures during their delightful flat imagination workshop at The Perch last week
you are cordially invited to join Creative Becoming and me for what is sure to be a memorable event at Emerald Wildflower Garden + The Perch Music / Arts Workshop on the 2nd of May, 2025 š²
feeling nostalgic for the theatre of the flat imagination today ā here's a picture of the wonderful Zack Scholl performing there about a year ago
here's the code for the strudel example for tomorrow's code sonnets workshop.
$: n("<[0,6] [2,8] [0,7] [0,9]>")
.scale("[C:major A2:minor D:dorian G:mixolydian]/4")
.sound("sawtooth")
.lpf(tri.range(600,900).slow(16))
.adsr(".2:.2:1:.4")
$: n("0 2 4 <[6,8] [7,9]>")
.scale("[C:major A2:minor D:dorian G:mixolydian]/8")
.sound("piano")
.cpm(60)
$: sound("bd [rim <bd rim>]").bank("RolandTR707").delay(.5)
$: sound("<numbers:1 numbers:2 numbers:3 numbers:4>")
.pan("<0 0.3 .6 1>")
.slow(2).lpf(tri.range(600,4000)
.slow(12)).delay("0.8:.5:1.5")
this is an image of a 3D model of a teapot ā come learn how to make an interactive verion of this and other fun things in just 14 lines of code at the upcoming code sonnets workshop!
two weeks from today, I'll be leading a workshop on what I'm calling "code sonnets" on zoom, as one part of A Writer's Party, which is a wonderful free alternative to the AWP conference both in-person here in Philadelphia and online. The image above is a screenshot from one of the examples I've cooked up for the workshop, but we're going to make all sorts of things with just 14 lines of code at a time. You can find a link to register on the home page of my website. I hope you'll join us.
