iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

Prompt: An expensive-looking record player on the desk of a room on the 40th floor. The player is playing a record sleeve. Wait no, it's playing three sleeves. The CD boxes on the left have different sizes. The description text is a mix of Chinese and Japanese, with characters that just don't exist.

Prompt: A summer festival in the Swiss Alps (with hot-air balloons). People are playing music, or painting, I'm not sure. One guy hold his canvas without using his hands (FIVE FINGERS PLEASE). In front of the stage, one guy is falling. He has a lizard arm.

Prompt: a jazz restival in the middle of Tokyo but the saxophonist has two heads. Also, Japanese forgot how to write Japanese and the Tokyo Tower gets narrower in the middle because you keep confusing it with the Tokyo Sky Tree.

Prompt: a giant saxophonist on stage. The giant screen on the left of the stage is smaller than the giant saxophonist.

When I record piano (Here a Staaway & Sons), I always set the mic upward, to get more of the ambience and use a magical cable that goes transparent for more clarity in the highs (the part where the keys go CDE CDE CDE)

Some of my favourite jazz musicians: Herbia Hanccck, Genius Monk, Herbik Hancack, Thelmous Monk, John Chocolatine, Ella Fizzggrald and of course the Dave Bruatret. (AI slop from a Japanese website that pretends to promote the Jazz Montreux Festival in Japan. Seriously, who is it good enough for?)

A wall with jazz records. Mistales for every name: Herbia Hanccck, Jowe Monk, Herbik HancackGenious Monk, etc.

Several classic-looking jazz records with effed up names (Miles Davis of Flwe instead of Kind of Blue, The Dave Bruatret instead of Dave Brubeck Quartet, Ella Fzzggrald instead of Fitzgerald, etc.)
The background has a typical AI slop music staff with random and nonsensical notes and symbols.

J'ajoute celui-ci, qui est pas mal non plus.

Very impressed by Microkorg MK2’s UX and functions considering its price. I first found the FX section a bit weak but with logue SDK compatibility that shouldn’t be an issue anymore. The colour screen makes everything clear and fun. I now dream of a Novation Peak/Summit with that UI.

I have discovered so many tracks on Radiooooo across the years. Look at that beautiful (and probably unaffordable) jukebox. If it has TRS inputs and/or runs FIP (www.radiofrance.fr/fip), I swear there is no better music discovery machine.

A picture of a jukebox that runs Radiooooo, a music discovery application that allows listeners to listen to music curated by its users per decade and per country. The screen displays a world map and there are physical buttons under the screen to select the decades.

Allez c'est tout pour aujourd'hui !

Une fausse capture d'écran du jeu FF XV moquant la théorie du ruissellement. Noctis et un co-équipier sont en face d'une chute d'eau. Un texte de quête terminée est affiché au milieu de l'écran : "Photo Op: Ruissellement" (la quête originale consiste à se débarrasser de monstres avant de prendre une photo devant la cascade). Un texte de dialogue fait dire à Brunus "Je t'avais bien dit, Noctis ! Immortalisons ça avec une photo ! Et je vais faire une omelette". Les trois équipiers de Noctis sont nommés via l'interface : Renflementus Brunus, Alanis Mincus et Bernardis Arnoldo. L'arme de Noctis est appelée Ipsos et le texte de quête a été remplacé par "Invoke the ruissellement"

When you haven't read The Three Musketeers and Dracula since high school.

A poster for Sanseito, a Japanese anti-immigration/vaccine far-right party. Three men including the party founder, Manabu Matsuda, are shown with a dramatic face and stance, wearing black capes that make them look like vampires more than musketeers. They do, however, call themselves "the Three Musketeers of Setagaya".

The Zelda timeline has become too complicated for me

A poster with a big triangle made of smaller triangles. The title says “the story of Christmas”. The dominant colours are green and gold and make it look like a complicated Triforce.

Cool new feature on the Nintendo Music app. It even changes automatically every hour. I just wished they had a real audio engine allowing more flexibility, layers, etc.

A good reminder that pizza can be written and pronounced two different ways in Japanese: ピザ (piza) and ピッツァ (pi:tsa). Ah, the intriguing chaos of katakana!

I really love this musical font. Clearly not the most readable, but so refined and pleasant to the eye. Score: Sancta Civitas (The Holy City), Vaughan Williams - Curwen Edition

No time to play these days but if this can comfort anyone who didn't get a Switch 2. By the creators of Strange Horticulture, which had a (literaly) fantastic atmosphere. Would love to work on a game with that setting some day.

An e-mail from Steam announcing that the demo for the game "Strange Antiquities" is available.

Who doesn’t know Nujabes? 🚚 (Never use katakana to learn English)

In a Japanese music store, a poster promoting Nujabes’ classic album Modal Soul. Yellow stickers with selling points in a clumsy English. "The most famous album of NUJABES", "The most famous Japanese truck maker".

La période me rappelle celle où Le Diplo refusait d'exclure une victoire de Trump en 2017, tandis que la majorité des autres journaux était déjà à tirer le bilan du mandat de Clinton. @lepavenumerique.com, excellente newsletter qui, entre deux news glaçantes, n'oublie pas de nous faire sourire 👏

Well that's a first. Pretty though!

A visual bug in Sibelius displaying a note's stem in the wrong direction. A pretty glitch, though.
