hello from New England
Posted: Tue Sep 07, 2021 2:11 pm
hello there!
I'm a computer musician physically residing somewhere in New England for the time being. Been using Linux to make music for over a decade now, and my computer music workflow has been running entirely on Linux for the last 5-6 years or so.
Technically, I did study audio production and sound design at school, though I've never really used it much in a professional setting and don't really have those production chops anymore. But it'd be great to get back into that at some point. I also have a graduate degree in music technology? More geared towards programming and DSP than my undergrad.
For the most part, I develop and use my own music software now, and I try to open source as much of it as I can. I always want to encourage others to jump in and do the same! The DIY nature of Linux is one of the things that makes it so unique from other platforms.
I did start the r/linuxaudio subreddit.
When I tell people about what I do, I like to say that I teach computers how to sing. This used to mostly be figurative, but it is recently becoming more literal with my investigations into vocal synthesis! One of my particular interests recently has been exploring musically meaningful ways to control the kinds of algorithms found in physically based vocal models like those found in articulatory speech synthesis.
Looking forward to meeting everyone here!
