Now playing 👇 (both forwards and backwards because of the @plasmatron.bsky.social Sonic Youth reminder that this was a thing that could be done and now there’s going to be a lot of this going on). Great both ways ❤️

boomkat.com/products/woo... this has a piece on it that’s bassoon (or technically 7 bassoons, 6 of which are taped but I’ve assumed no electronics meant fx / synths rather than this, apologies if not!). The whole album is excellent!

This is a pro(ta)totype for the PotAIto, which I’m displaying this Sunday 2:30 to 5 at the Heart of Newhaven’s Tattie Fest in Edinburgh. It’s a potato based and powered AI entity, combining 2 of my great loves, chips and chips. His little smile lights up when he sees a human face 😀 #circuitpython
