damn. Good features. I was hoping to move onto this as part of the portfolio pieces/improve habits self hosted DB thing I’m working on, but for now I guess I can learn some of the things I don’t know how to do yet (like shipping to other people!) from your team.

How are you planning on reacting to the android freedoms getting compromised? I’m literally working on the android app for mine now, and it bums me out that they’re going to put more invasions of privacy for deploying apps to your own phone.

Also, are you planning to make money from this somehow? If yes, how?

I am so awesome at self promotion that I put the source code twice, and the actual usable version 0 times. Here’s the link : https://newdawnowl.itch.io/microtonal-grid

I have to actually see you use it in your DJ software/machine. Let’s say you have a mechanism in your DJ software that seems to somehow have a 16 * 16 grid, conway’s game of life and an interface that’s very similar. I can start pursuing legal action if I believe you’re making gains off it. The more money someone makes off it, the more likely it becomes, since courts aren’t free, international laws, etc etc. You’d also get reputational damage, especially if you’re a smaller company

Just to add a concrete example/plug:

I made the microtonal music grid : https://newdawnowl.itch.io/microtonal-grid
Its source code is open, you can see it here : https://github.com/MicrotonalGrid/MicrotonalGrid

If you want to, you can modify it yourself and add in things like different colours, default music systems, or even ratio mode instead of even temperment. I’m perfectly happy with that. You can even use it to teach yourself or other people how to program in javascript , or how to program a very basic synth. You can even use just the part that has an implementation of conway’s game of life.

I don’t consent to you making money off it. If anyone is going to make the pittance that this code would make, I want it to be me.

I want credit, and I don’t want you to make money off it.

So you use a license to specify how you want people to treat you and your code, and threaten legal action if that desire is abused.

OK, seems more clear. I want to ask you the opposite (ish) question : where should I start with Norma Jean or this Mr Scogin fellow that’s not completely metalcore/with more dynamics?

go for calculating infinity, it’s constant. Unless you mean “low and slow” heavy, in which case, dillinger is not for you, it’s more shrill and manic.

Not sure what old Norma Jean is, I’m old

what made you not listen to them “well” the first time around? I got into them after hearing Milk Lizard in saints row, or after checking out their work with mike patton. Calculating infinity felt just too constant and screamy, the album they did with patton had a bit more dynamic and varied.

Or did you check out the later stuff and think it wasn’t playing at 10 enough? I’m not asking to be mean, to see if I can help guide you in specific albums/order that might be more to your liking.

maybe I need to bother the good people at the music department at my local uni(s)
