Ardour is very good and needs more attentions. My respects to the developers, I use it every day, and I am very happy with it and its community. I also like the paying / open source model, and I wouldn’t change it for a proprietary DAW 99% of the musicians use.
I use that CMS since 5 years after a Wordpress burnout, and it has been a very joy to learn and use that CMS. The many websites I developed with Processwire are still in good shape today, and my clients usually find it very simple to use.
You know all those icons because someone, some industry or some culture imposed it to you. Nothing is self-evident. We are constantly learning new symbols to be able to share graphic languages with other persons or interfaces.
I am a daily user of Inkscape and I love this software. Thank you for that version, snapping and multiple pages are incredibly helpful. Earlier in the day, I was about to download a suspicious add-on to batch export images, what a pleasure to find this option in this new version!
Initiator of the project here. Let me add a bit of context: The goal of cascade is to explore and map graphic possibilities offered by the DOM and CSS to sound (positions, nesting, animation, dev tools editing…). That explains the weird results, it is an experimental project mixing live-coding, sound notation and love for web standards, that will never sound like commercial music, as the limitations are important and fundamental to the exploration. This video shows several demos, illustrating my point : https://peertube.swrs.net/videos/watch/33e7c76d-775f-4e1b-88...
Amazing work Raphaël! I’ve been showing this to my graphic design students in a code class and they immediately get the taste of editing in the browser inspector.
Thank you for the thorough explanation! Sorry if I sounds blasé, that’s actually quite of an innovative project (but still I want to call it weird). ;-)
The video is very interesting, btw. But!.. the examples don’t show how interactive it can be (and the results are fucking brutalist; looks a bit like living Kandinsky paintings), related to other audio/live coding interfaces I bookmarked recently (not comparable at all):
No problem for being blasé, we’re surrounded by highdef visuals and sounds. I understand it’s hard to scale back to minimal stuff. And yes the visuals are very dry because it’s actual music notation, everything you see is used to write the music, there is no decoration. The (live)code part is not visible on videos I shared because it happens within the web dev console, see https://peertube.swrs.net/videos/watch/5d84ea32-18d8-454d-b2...
I made one web artwork a day during 35 days.

It was exhausting. It had an article in a national newspaper and it is now being exhibited in net art online exhibitions.
