hey folks! been a little bit since i did an #introduction and a fair amount has changed since my previous one.
i'm an american expat (grew up in ohio) living in rotterdam, NL (previously was in utrecht, and berlin). my main gig is writing audio software – largely plugin fx and synths.
i also write and produce electronic music (lately drum&bass, but make ambient/downtempo too).
find me on the 'net:
software: https://lhiaudio.com, https://github.com/wrl
music: https://soundcloud.com/williamlight
yooo my song "lift you up" is out today on inspected.
all streaming platforms + bandcamp
give it a listen :>
x-post from birdsite: this evening at 18:00 CEST (16:00 UTC, noon EDT), i'm adding a CLAP backend to my in-house audio plugin framework and streaming it on twitch.
i'm encouraged by the reports i've heard from other devs about how straightforward it is to implement, so we'll see how it goes.
twitch stream will be at https://www.twitch.tv/wrlight

@socksy added a KEYS file so now it makes more sense lol
it seems like "pretend that everything else isn't there" wouldn't be a super cool feature but the psychological impact of just... ignoring the larger context and focusing on a tiny part of the work is hard to overstate
also i put a kanban mode in there too, because why not
also it has almost no UI and vi keybindings
i get frustrated because when i'm sketching/planning out a project, i draw up these sprawling, fanciful plans covering as much ground in as deep detail as i can
but when it comes time to actually do the work, it's overwhelming and hard to know where to start
so what i've built is a hierarchical task manager that lets me arbitrarily zoom in to any part of the tree and block out the whole rest of the context
