Here is a very small extract from it:

Here is the GUI screen:
A builtin Help is provided and, as usual, Design the Media’s forums can be used for ANY questions. Indeed, you’d have to register an account, but it can take only 2 clicks using you facebook or twitter account (some haters will hate that, but you are warned here)

The best way to use it is to use earphones or a sound system line input.
Low frequencies are Continue reading »

Nice review about my protoclidean sequencer

Maxi Mega Thanks & hugs to Peter Kirn & his CDM Blog for the review about the Protoclidean Sequencer I designed for Design the Media.

Here are his words:

Protoclidean We’ve seen Euclidean rhythms many times before, but this takes the notion of these evenly-spaced rhythmic devices to a novel sequencer. Developed by Julien Bayle, aka artist Protofuse, the Max for Live device is also a nice use of JavaScript in Max patching. See it in action in the video above. There are custom display options for added visual feedback, and whereas we’ve seen Euclidean notions in use commonly with percussion, the notion here is melodic gestures

Some strange feelings

I feel my artistic & creative side becoming hugely and totally jealous of the apparently other part.

It sounds frightening in some ways.

I guess this fear sounds normal and can be converted in huge amount of positive energy (btw, that fear doesn’t sound negative in any manner today)

My mood seems boosted by that.
It seems paradoxal because I ever thought and tested fear as a big obstacle.

My mood is very open & creative.

I have to use it more, and probably more focused on center of the target

My tools makes you making music

It is such a strange and happy feeling.
Some people sent me their own music made with tools I designed!
It is really impressive to listen what they made & composed

I want to feature them as much as possible, so I hope they’ll send me more.

Especially, I’m totally amazed and fascinated by this track made with tools I designed (The Uncanny Sequencer + Drone Machine)
The user is named purzelifyable and I thanked him a lot.

Both tools are available here:
+ + The Uncanny Sequencer

Why should you use Timeline ?

Recently, Timeline has been launched by Facebook.
I propose you to dig a bit that new tool.
You’d need around 15 minutes to read this article.

Check a snapshot of mine:

WoW.
What is it ?
It was just my profile, seen today.

Real friendly URL tips

This is my tip for you.

I created 3 pages on google+ these days, AS SOON AS it has been available.

My artist page as protofuse has a nice url:

https://plus.google.com/b/106199299743069073706/106199299743069073706/about

My music label’s page as bitsquare records has a nice url:

https://plus.google.com/b/118366445036348228356/118366445036348228356/about

and the page of Design the Media is:

https://plus.google.com/b/108105786459542031618/108105786459542031618/about

Ok.
What ugly URL.
Google WILL support custom names.

But in the meantime, let’s do that:

1) Create a subdomain of your websites with a cute name (gplus is very ok)
2) Create an .htaccess file in the root folder and remove ALL the other files.
3) Edit your .htaccess like that:

RedirectPermanent / https://<your URL>

where <your URL> is the one you have copied/pasted from your url bar in your browser when you are on your page:

In the case of Design the Media :

RedirectPermanent / https://plus.google.com/b/108105786459542031618/108105786459542031618/about

Spread this. Aesthetic URL are so nice.

The Uncanny Sequencer (official teaser)

This is the official teaser of my new strange & weird sequencer named The Uncanny Sequencer.
It is based on probabilities.

More infos soon.
Let subscribe to the newsletter to be informed: http://designthemedia.com/newsletter

testing hootsuite.com as a big scheduler hub

http://hootsuite.com is a nice service.
it is FREE (ok, a lot of folks would say “ahah poor man, he believes it is free but advertisements are under the hood etc etc” : I’d just answer: “.”)

you can join linkedIn accounts, facebook profiles & pages, wordpress.com accounts, twitter too.

you can schedule your post: for instance, you want to inform the world about 5 big technology news but you don’t want to saturate your followers ; just schedule that in 5 times to let them relax between interesting reading 

I just discover a big news too:
you can add your RSS/Atom feeds too.
This is a nice feature.
For instance, this post will only be published on the blog.
hootsuite service grabs cyclically (I put 1hour) the rss feed, and can post the last news on this or that account linked to your hootsuite’s profile!

we’ll see if it works fine in, maxi 1hour 

By the way: it deserves to be tested to improve productivity and respect of your followers.
