iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

making my way through the 90's Outer Limits and just hit the "Josh Brolin's VR sees the future" episode. love seeing who was in these old shows. and all the lower mainland locations. the cheesy music (those string patches!).

I was just thinking about some of the things I've done in/for the game audio community and the subtle imposter syndrome that follows me around and it really sinking in how all the real impactful things I've done have been when collaborating with others.

I just thought of ambi-bent as a music genre and I can't be the first to think of this. ambient music via circuit bending. that's already a thing, right?

all this vibecoding ecosystems really has me lose all interest in new plugin companies. like I just start out not trusting anything at this point. got some plugins lately and I realized I'm not going to even install them. just no faith anymore.

Lots of excitement about the squeaky beach sounds in Big Walk! You'll all be happy to know it's the real thing! Was absolutely giddy to get to record them on an actual Australian squeaky beach in Wilson's Promontory. Yes, if you didn't know some beaches there really do squeak. It is pure joy.
