OSC-this, Linux-that, Visualisers and Midi… Bah!
Nobody is posting… MUSIC. We need a flow of music/code in
the forums, to help new joiners to relax, play around with, and
get used to posting their code.
Too much dry, technical stuff and links to 30 page manuals
on MIDI, will just scare people away, making them feel it’s
all far too much to cope with…
So… here’s some stuff from the dumbest coder on the forums
to keep people going.
Eli…
Nice summery jazz-influenced stuff:
