Pistolero Podcast 023 Jnr Hacksaw - Live Set @ Pistolero - 18-01-2014

Recorded in Bristol in 2013

This is the promo Vid for a product I have been closely involved with the design of.

Musii is a new interactive music system designed for play and sensory therapy, a soft inflatable object that emits sound and is illuminated with colour when touched.

This is an excerpt of an improvisation using a four channel analog style sequencer written in Pure Data. Nothing was prepared for this piece apart ...

8 bit kick drum running on an arduino. Sample playback, resonant lowpass filter, cutoff and pitch knobs, velocity, piezo trigger. No computer involved, all code running on a standard arduino thanks to the mozzi project.

OUT NOW!

My proposal for Bristols Temple Quarter Gateway Project has been shortlisted, click the image above for details.

Haxxor, my generative tune app on my modified Blaster

Animatronic Inflatable Tentacles

These where a collaboration with Filthy Luker, I built the computer controlled motors, actuation system and software. This was a commission for Nuit Blanche Metz November 2012

Converted my digital amped ghettoblaster to Android touch screen today, should get 12hrs use at full volume with a 3Ah battery

Raspberry PI with Puredata, Arduino and sensor array

Click on the image to see the Video!

This a test rig for an installation I'm planning. It comprises of a Raspberry PI running Raspbian and Pd-Extended. This is connected to an array of 6 proximity sensors via an Arduino with the Firmata firmware.

The Puredata patch allows you to chose or create scales, select tempo, note ranges and transposition. Sound is produced by 6 channels of Karplus Strong string models with delay. The built in RPI sound output is used.

The Raspberry is oveclocked to 1ghz, CPU usage is around 75%.

REALITY SHEILD EP OUT NOW!!

This is my first release in what seems like ages, been really busy with various projects including a life size whale covered in stars and huge robotic tentacles! But I'm still in the studio when I get the chance!

Filthy Luker and Under Pressure Art invade Manchester city centre

This is a huge (60ft high) interactive art installation built by us for Red Stripes "Make with" project. I designed the lights, and interactive software for the piece.

The system uses an An Intel Atom based PC running Puredata. The patch was developed in record time and encountered many issues along the way namely how to produce the 130 channels of DMX lighting information with software designed for audio/video.

Due to the short deadline we where unable to thoroughly test the software or lighting system and towards the end of the job we found that I would not be able to get on the site due to health and safety. This meant that a remote programming solution had to be set up for the inevitable final tweaking. The upshot of this is that the system can be constantly improved whilst still running and from many miles away.
