the day of the week Wednesday bears his name in many Germanic languages, including English.

Even though I am currently nornsless, I am looking forward to what Odin’s days provide.

I was curious as well and poked around in the repo. This should help: https://github.com/monome/norns/blob/09a5cb61d62036f731b49dfc271d599071261790/readme-script.md.

I had the volume inadvertently muted and was Thinking Really Hard about why this was a video of knob turning and button pressing without sound.

Tiny css nit, on the studies page, maybe some slight padding on the container, targeting small screens? Or not. Awesome work!

If you feel bad you can reach into the SuperCollider demo script and copy the function that paints “Why?” on the screen which I did and it feels soooo much better even though its officially cheating.
