Nodal-vector synth (A false Memory) Notes and writing Research Work in progress by antonyhall - December 24, 2025January 7, 20260 This nodal synth project is based on a false memory. I was discussing false memories with friends last night and reflecting on some of my own. I woke up the next day still thinking about this. I often think about something that my friend Ben had shown me years ago, I have this strong memory of connected objects like a circuit diagram or a mechanical network, and of it running like a program and making sound, and I have a distinct image of it which I am pleased to say I have recreated here, sadly its not sounding as good as i hoped but i am still working on it. At the time Ben was studying music and physics, maybe
Pond computer simulation Research Work in progress by antonyhall - December 2, 2025December 2, 20250 I have found it helpful to think through my pond computer research using AI assited codeing. In this patch, I created a simulated pond computer. An 8×8 hypothetical sensor grid is imposed over a 2D simulation of daphnia-like particles swimming around. The daphnia are attracted to light. The 8×8 grid represents LDRs and LEDs (though it could use camera tracking in the long run). Each cell adjusts its LED brightness to keep local daphnia density near a target level (trying to simulate a Stafford Beer-style homeostasis). This work in progress is far from perfect, but it has been helpful in my thinking process so far. INSTRUCTIONS: First click on the patch and try the vairous keys to change settings. You can view
