Hi,
I did mention toplap when I talked about my live code
project.
and I did take the screens off !!!
...but that wasn't a live code performance. It was a
standard gui interface and knobbox turning thing
controlling generative sound and music processes...
I have also moved back to London, so hopefully I will
meet some of you when some events come up here.
see you all,
paul
