I'm getting older but unlike whisky I'm not getting any better. Author of the Janus WebRTC Server, the imquic QUIC library and the KIAVC adventure engine, and a VERY amateur musician (and an even more amateur game developer).

Whether you celebrate it or not, we have an early #Christmas gift for you... the #QUIC library I've been working on is now open source! Learn more about it and how I've been using it as a playground for #RoQ and #MoQ!

Happy holidays! 🎄

Introducing imquic! | Meetecho Blog
These past few months I've shared a lot of info on my experiments with QUIC as a new transport for real-time media. I detailed my efforts on writing a basic QUIC stack, followed by deeper dives in RTP...

Roberto is a long time friend, a great musician and a huge connoisseur of progressive rock, so I was really honoured when he asked me to contribute riffs/solos to a song he was working on. I really like the result, and I hope you'll enjoy it too!

Lighthouse of the Week: Ep. 15

The Grim Fandango lighthouse stands stoic in Rubacava, almost masoleum-like in its construction. As you look at it, a light breeze stirs a cluster of blue flower petals around you, and you feel your chest tighten at a deep grief that still lingers here.

After having a RealTime Communications devroom for 10 years at #FOSDEM, we'll sit 2026 out, as our application has been rejected. A bit of history: in 2013 FOSDEM had both a Jabber and a Telephony devroom. Then there were 2 years of no RTC things devroom.

#FOSDEM announced the devrooms for #fosdem2026 and I have some good news and some bad news.

The good news is that my submission for a #MusicProduction devroom got accepted, yay! Finally #music will have a well deserved place at FOSDEM! It'll be on Sunday afternoon, expect a CfP soon 🙏

What's worse than all those websites with their own lame "best 100 games ever" kind of lists? Me coming up with my own lame list to show how lame theirs is, of course!

So, how lame do you think mine is? 😁
And how much do you hate me for ignoring your favourite game(TM)?

I upped my tiramisù game and made it with matcha instead of coffee... Hope I won't get arrested by neither Italian nor Japanese police anytime soon!

At almost 47yrs of age, I learnt how to prepare a proper tiramisù, and the result was surprisingly tasty. This is both good and bad news:

* Good because, hell yeah, I can make tiramisù now, and it's great!

* Bad because I have no self control, and that could skyrocket me to 200kg weight in a zap

Is Alien: Earth the worst series I've ever watched, or is it just incredibly bad?

Yes

I just published a post about Juturna, a new open source and modular project (by my colleagues Antonio and Paolo) to implement real-time AI pipelines, whether involving Janus or not. With its modular and extensible nature, hopefully it will be useful to you as well!

Working with real-time media has always been cool (it definitely never really felt like work to me!), but that has started to become even funnier in the past few years. The explosion of AI/ML really opened the doors to interesting new opportunities in the real-time multimedia space, especially when it comes to integrations in WebRTC-based

If you're in Krakow for RTC.ON, don't miss the presentation my colleague Antonio will make there! He's been working on a new cool project called #Juturna for real-time AI pipelines, which we've been using with #Janus ourselves. The event is usually streamed, so I'll share a link when I have one 🙏

Before I started using dating apps, I was convinced I was too ugly. Now I know I was wrong... I'm also too short!

One of the songs from my latest "R U There?" album that I didn't dare to play in the live performance last week is "Reason", and you can see here why 😂

A couple of days ago, just for fun, I did a live "concert" online, using WHIP and WebRTC. In this blog post I talk a bit about all I did to automate everything, especially the live performance itself, but there's some talk of WHIP/WebRTC too. Feedback welcome! 🙏

I was just gifted a #sitar that had been sitting in a garage for years... I wonder if I'll be able to make it shine, sooner or later, considering it needs to be restringed and I have no clue where to start 😂

ChatGPT should be banned in any decent country. What it does when you ask it about something you don’t know is insane. It invents it in 90% of cases. It replied with info in its old cache despite you ask it about some news happening today or yesterday. It then confirms WHATEVER you say it’s correct.
