New article! "Making Music with Radio Signals" is a write-up of my experience with the medium. Full of demos, photos, tips, tricks and a tiny bit of pondering about why radio is so attractive to me. gnd.buzz/blog/radio-m...

I have a couple pedal soldering workshops planned in Berlin. Both are quite fun, participants can tweak the circuit, experiment with transistors & diodes to make the device fit them best. Sat April 12: Overdrive pedalmarkt.com/collections/... Sun April 13: Fuzz Face pedalmarkt.com/collections/...

A few photos of an abandoned US military base. The place made me want to play some Fallout 2. Also reminded me that there was a series recently based on the game. The series turned out to be meh. #gaming #fallout #fallout2 #abandonedplaces
Kollage of 5 photos of parts of an abandoned US military base. The most prominent features of it were a large green rotting metal water tower. There was also a ginormous antenna array you can catch a glimpse of on the bottom left photo.

I'm trying to document my work more. Sometimes out of that process come out cool artifacts like that collection of custom stamps

Designed in FreeCad and cut with a CNC, yes. I've asked a friend who's much better at CAD to help with a tilting solution, that's still in the works.

I feel like RingMod* is one of the most underappreciated effects and building blocks for sounds. It's a very simple idea that leads to complex and harmonically rich sounds. Or in the context of slow signals (CV) fun juicy modulation. *aka 4Q VCA; aka Mixer in the context of RF

That being said, I'm only using it for small sketches as backgrounds for jams or practice. Haven't actually built full tracks with an iPad yet.

I'm surprised how useful and fun an iPad is for making music. Sound sources, effects, MIDI. They all interop with each other (via AUM). The limitations of a relatively small screen and large fingies inspire creative controls, so it doesn't feel or work like a conventional DAW (good thing)

Overdrive soldering workshop on December 1st The circuit is based on a discreet (built out of 3 transistors) non-inverting opamp. One switch for choosing clipping diodes, another for changing the filter cap for more clang. You get to experiment and pick the diodes and filter caps.

Let me re-introduce you to the project I am actively working on: the Sitina 1, an open-source full-frame mirrorless camera! I have made a short thread on this more than a year ago, but that was incomplete and also outdated. Given there have been lot of new people coming, I decide to write a new one.

Hello everyone! My name’s Monica and I work on painfully exacting, impractical projects. One day I might even finish one. I also write notes. Here is a quick look at what I have on the table right now.
A two-page spread of illustrated notes in cursive handwriting with a piece of LED circuitry laid over the paper, featuring thin red magnet wire and decorated with silver jewelry ornament. The notes read: “For a while now, I’ve been working on the challenge of how to have sleek, solder-free mechanical connections for my projects that don’t have to be shamefully hidden away. Enclosures are all well and good, but I’m hunting the techniques that will give me a more organic form factor with, let’s call it, a jeweler’s finish.
