I made my first YouTube video about SuperCollider! It's about FM synthesis, my DX7 inspired SynthDef that I used making my recent album "Permutations" released by Biodiversità Records. Here's the video: youtu.be/SnkOAMBq_Lk the code: github.com/ffforces/Sup...

Feature length Finnish films are often compromised artistically, so it's refreshing to see short ones. Much enjoyed this short film "Magnifica - Uninvited Guest" about the curious gelatinous blob animal/colony - the magnificent bryozoan. My friend Alsa Ojala made the music! areena.yle.fi/1-64877707

Last day of Docpoint and my final two screenings: Mother Vera and Apple Cider Vinegar. Both seem pretty intriguing! Hopefully M. Vera is absolute cinema and the A.C.V would be poignant, essayistic film about that nature of stones 🪨 www.youtube.com/watch?v=kCGd... www.youtube.com/watch?v=4qmG...
