Pixel sorting and image manipulation using Python scripts

I had this idea about five years ago to write my own pixel sorting scripts. What’s pixel sorting I hear you say? In it’s most basic form, it’s taking the pixels in an image and resorting them according to values such as brightness, saturation, colour etc.. If you think of pixels in an image existing […]

Jeff Mills on the 909

I come back to this video all the time. It’s not just the proficiency, it’s the way playing something technological, programmable, as a live instrument leads to these beautiful hand movements, a sense of pure flow and intuition.

It’s kinda late. I’ve been thinking about Leonard Cohen again, man I love his stuff. Is it something about the music you listen to when you are a late teen? That it really sticks with you? I used to have a CD player that fitted into my coat pocket, I got the coat from an […]
