would anyone like to volunteer to assist with the workshop this coming Saturday (5/14)?
mostly this will involve moderating the chat in discord and bringing questions to @jaseknighter’s attention as they arise.
i am sooper excited to see you all at tomorrow’s norns study group workshop covering the krill script.
@Helen has very kindly volunteered to volunteer for tomorrow’s workshop. 
also, i have one more survey for you:
i am most interested in learning about how to integrate the krill script with…

Multi-slacking is what I do best!
brb writing 10am LA is 6pm London time in Sharpie on my hand
Looking forward to it!
folks interested in using midi for the workshop tomorrow should update the script as i just fixed a bug that prevented midi from working properly.
hey everyone!
running into some difficulty with the discord-based scope of events (namely, audio only lol) – we’re switching to twitch: Twitch
we may need a few minutes to get fully ready due to the late realization 
we’re now live!
we’re up and running. come on and join!
thanks @jaseknighter for this awesome deep dive into krill, despite the last minute twitcheroo (call @license for this trademarked word use) and how it impacted the whole audio/video routing you had prepared.
(full disclosure: we discovered 15 minutes before the event that discord “stage” mode is audio-only and that the video chat it capped to 25 person…).
i’m personally still blow away by how the “screen” part is not just a scope but more a “lens” that conditions the interpretation of the sequence/modulation!
thank you @eigen! many thanks as well to @Helen, @zbs, and @dan_derks for their help leading up to and during the workshop.
i hope those of y’all who attended found the workshop informative and am excited to see and hear the music you make with the krill script.
the video stream of the workshop is being uploaded to Vimeo now. i’ll update this note when it is available for viewing.
=========EDIT==========
the video from today’s krill walkthrough has been posted to Vimeo
here are approximate time stamps for the materials we covered together:
a follow up krill workshop will be streamed tomorrow (Sunday, May 15) on twitch.
tomorrow’s workshop will cover integration with external devices (midi, crow, Just Friends, W/) because we hit some technical bumps while reviewing these features during the session this morning.
10 minute klaxon!
The follow up krill workshop starts over at Twitch at 1000 Los Angeles / 1300 Boston / 1800 London / 1900 Stockholm
Edited to add: Thank you @jaseknighter for another deep and clarifying session! I was jumping in and out of the stream a bit, so will set aside some dedicated viewing time/space when the vod becomes available.
thank you so much for your assistance today @Helen and @eigen!
the 2nd video has been posted to vimeo:
here are the approximate time stamps for the materials covered:
0:00 - 37:07: external device integration (crow, Just Friends, MIDI, W/)
37:07 - end: mod matrix review
as always, please don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions or issues you may encounter while reviewing the materials.
yeah, it happened, flash crash… crashed…
there is norns/habitus coming, an exciting 2 days in-person workshop / seminar / concert around monome HQ.
but sadly it’s not physically possible to attend if you live far away…
but rejoice, the online norns study group workshop #2 is coming!
this one is by the amazing Duncan Geere (@radioedit) who will demonstrate how to turn raw data into sounds and melodies (i.e. “data sonfification”).
curator’s note: i in fact heard about Duncan way before getting into norns.
indeed, i have professionally worked in the field of data analysis and stumbled upon his work w/ admiration.
it was quite a pleasant surprise for me to encounter him again in the norns ecosystem!one thing worth mentioning about Duncan is how he has put his skills to use for a good cause: tracking & presenting climate change and how decisions have influence over it.
you can find a selection of his output here:
- visuals: recent portfolio (+ some gems in the old one)
- sounds: Loud Numbers podcast
Really excited to share some of my experiments in this workshop! I’ll show a few things I’ve made, talk a little about what I’ve learnt in the process, and then talk about how you can make your own sonifications - either with the loudnumbers script on Norns, or the Loud Numbers VCV Rack module.
Let me know if you have any questions!
looking forward to this today!!
the workshop will take place at the lines community twitch.
EDIT: going live in 15 minutes.
NOW LIVE
ended, the replay will be available soon.
@radioedit , such a fantastic session – i learned tons about sonification techniques, but you also modeled how to approach data with artful curiosity so well! thank you for sharing your background, expertise, and playfulness with us!!
Thanks so much Dan, thanks to everyone who joined, and extra big thanks to @eigen for arranging everything and helping me test the tech! I really enjoyed sharing my process and thoughts on this weird niche of sound-making 
The recording should be watchable here:
Head on over to this thread if you’d like to continue the discussion!
