These last few days I started replaying an old game from my childhood, Dark Chronicles on PS2. I have very fond memory of this, and I still find it pretty cool today!
The one thing I didn’t remember is that there are a few quite… sexy… monsters! 😮

The #keyboard (by @Hiro @Reptifur and I) is finished… and it works! I’m using it right now to type this message. :D
I’m very very happy with it. This is the perfect replacement for my old Typematrix that has nonfunctional rows and keys…

Today I worked a little on our (with @Hiro and @Reptifur) keyboard.
First time soldering an SMD component. Not the best job of course, but it wasn’t that hard! I just had to use a lot of flux!

The little socket is an 8-bit bus (or 5 lines + SPI bus) for external devices as well as initial programming. I tried programming it through that and it worked first try! :D

Next session will be soldering 70 diodes and 70 switches… x)

I wanted to know how the keyboard feels so I assembled it and put all the switches and keycaps (no electronics yet). I’m very happy with the result! It’s cute, the sound is good and it doesn’t bend *at all*.

I just received the PCBs for the low-profile mechanical keyboard project I’m doing with @Hiro and @Reptifur.
I’m super excited, everything went well! (this is my first PCB design and order)

The other keyboard on the photos is my Typematrix that I’m trying to replace with this project.

#keyboard in progress :3

That’s an orthogonal, low-profile keyboard I’m making with @Hiro

Today I finished my very first full-synth track! (and 3rd original track ever)

It was made entirely with #OpenSource #Software: #Ardour #Helm #Calf #EQ10Q

I’m still a beginner at music making so it’s not very good, but I had a lot of fun making it, and will definitely do it again!

Yaay! I got Ensemble (my #Matrix client) to work on my ancient (2009) Maemo smartphone!

Now to make the necessary changes so that it doesn’t drain the battery or data too fast (I have a 50MB data plan on this thing 😛)

There are so many cool cartoon artists (and other kinds as well of course!) on the fediverse… I wish I had money to commission them all. 😢

Little music I made for my #Lisp #gamejam game. It’s not really polished or well recorded, but I’m quite happy. 🙂

Made with #ardour the #libre #opensource DAW

Received the batch of switches for the #keyboard I’m making with @Hiro 😀

I can’t wait finishing this project, my 10 years old Typematrix is really starting to wear out, and these switches feel awesome!

Starting a #stream!

I will train my OpenGL skills by trying to reproduce Butine’s graphics with shaders.

Starting a #scheme #stream on Ensemble, my #matrix client. I’m a bit tired so I’ll work on some easy tasks.

#Ensemble #matrix client interface revamping is coming along great. ^^
New release very soon!

Todo for this session:
- Improve the new windowing system
- Rework some key bindings
- Start working on multi-profile support

All that while listening to the new Pandrezz and Chiptunes=WIN releases. :)

#lisp #chickenscheme #release

Result from yesterday’s stream: did my first complex shape work with #opengl and #GLSL

I made the bees from Butine, long term goal is to rewrite most of Butine as GLSL shaders so I can do all sorts of cool effects (and have loads of stuff on screen)!
