This might be my favourite 2 minutes of tv ever.

@GeorgeMonbiot getting straight to the heart of what we need to do: system change.

Universities are terrified of the @UCU Marking & Assessment Boycott and are threatening us with disgusting, unjust pay deductions ranging from 50-100% of our salaries. I have compiled the data I’ve found thus far. All unis threatening pay cuts must be named and shamed. #ucuRISING

Emute have a new release out today: Live at the Meeting House - a concert from the Feedback Musicianship Network https://t.co/F2qen1d38W

Here’s where I think we now stand, and how we should respond. A thread.
1. There is a global trend towards political impunity. In many nations, politicians are testing the limits of constitutional power, and discovering they can get away with almost anything. 🧵

New blog post: Collective Intelligence for Deep Learning

Recently, @yujin_tang and I published a paper about how ideas like swarm behavior, self-organization, emergence are gaining traction in deep learning.

I wrote a blog post summarizing the key ideas:

FFS the xiasri has been possessed by some death metal drummers, this will really mess up my gig @ @iklectikartlab on Friday night

Diffusion for music synthesis!

We trained a “notes2audio” pipeline to synthesize audio from multi-instrument MIDI notes.

yes! there are so many exciting things about this project, with some deep dives into dynamic complexity and emergence. welcome @davidkadish

[alicealicealice: @[email protected] @alicealicealice]

Excited to be welcoming @davidkadish to @SussexHumsLab and @SussexEASy to start our @acoustics_ac_uk funded project investigating Acoustic Dynamical Complexity for #Ecoacoustics with @anilkseth @adambarrett81 @luuma and @IvorSimpson4

finally got #dalle access, so here's 'a polaroid of a music synthesiser built with pieces of moldy cheese'.

Quite interesting design of the knobs. ... and now i want to know how it sounds (but not how it smells, that would be one step too far for artificial intelligence)

I wrote 7000+ words of audio mixing advice, featuring knowledge from my 15 years as a mastering engineer

It has been a 12-year Bullingdonian spree, smashing the crockery, rubbing food in the waiters' faces, dancing on the tables, then legging it, leaving someone else to pay the bill. 67 million mostly decent and caring people have been governed by a handful of posh vandals.
