While we’re reminiscing…

I was talking Alfred’s ear off until literally seconds before he went on stage for this…

Alas, I’m out at relatives and another gig, otherwise I’d have tuned in when I could from GMT. Hope it goes swimmingly. It sounds great.

Will you be recording as well, for those of us in non-US time zones?

periscope feeds are archived by the service.

but the live-ness is the fun part! we’ll be here on the forum for discussion during.

Monome has long been a mysterious beautiful box doing mysteriously beautiful things for me. Didn’t find out about it through videos though, I remember I first saw @Yann_Coppier perform with it almost a decade ago and that was it, it was stuck in my mind, and I knew I’d have to take time to get one and learn how to use it, someday. Well apparently since that day a little less than a decade past, and that makes me fairly new to the monome family as it’s the first time a monome grid is at the center of my work. But I’m so glad it happened, and I’m so thankful to this community for the many things you guys don’t even know you did for me over the last months, all by simply talking, sharing and discussing.

Fuel for the mind, everyday and under many forms.

Anyhow, I’m pretty sure there’s still a long road ahead and I’m excited to see where it leads.

Periscope is being a bit crackly.

we have periscope open on different devices and it appears to be behaving very differently on each.

indeed. I seem to have a better audio stream on my mobile than on the desktop, where audio frames were dropped quite often. now the video has some glitches, which look totally awesome :smile:

On the corner of the mantelpiece in a messy living room; an iPhone is providing a window into the world of monome.

Yup, I was gonna post a screen cap too.

At one point there was a bird flying around, in and out of the “streaming compression” world. Quite beautiful.
