coding
Coding in Matlab today for a new piece based on Brahms Lullaby. Boy am I out of practice but managed to put something together. AND I fixed some old code so no idea how many of my previous “files and variations” pieces were not what I thought. But they were still variations based on permutations of the original material, and then edited til I liked them so not to worry. I’m very excited by this piece – the early parts are sounding good – slow and measured, nothing extraneous.
name change
when our daughter was about 12 she added a middle name. I have always wished she had kept her original middle-less name, but.. Anyways I am thinking of changing my name, although I will wait a few months yet. But Gary Glen Geoffrey strikes me as a good solid name for a man of my age and background
the potting shed – part 1. This time it’s serious
so we’re – Angus and I – building a potting shed for Lani. It’s an old bird shed that we pulled apart until just the frame and roof were left. And now we are cladding it in weatherboards to match the rest of the house. This is the task for the Xmas holidays – ambitious? Not really.
Here is the shed after cleaning up ‘the site’
First up was the putting in of the floor
Cutting a few boards and priming them
And the start of the boards goes up- I’ve put a bit of my left hand index finger in there to add some intrigue- Good God! what will go into that corner of the shed – what is he hiding behind that finger, it could be anything? At a minimum the mind boggles.
