A long view looking out over tree tops and water

Some places give you perspectives. Places to breathe. I need this, especially when I feel lonely and doubt myself.

What a beauty!

You can also come to Barcelona in Spain or Bielefeld in Germany… 😊

By the way… will you visit ICAD this summer?

Aren’t you a bit over qualified? 😊

A physical digital object, a flower that can be used for interaction in restaurants

Just finished the course I’ve been teaching on physical interaction design.
”What other courses are there that we can apply for?”
“I don’t really know all the elective courses on the design master…”
“With you of course! We want to have more courses with you!”

Or XLR cables… 😊

The call for the 2026 Internet of Sounds symposium is live and we’re inviting work for the 1st IEEE International Workshop on Sonification for the IoS. Please do get involved:

I have a masterstudent who’s developing an interactive audiobook with game mechanics, a single player adventure book. The student is focusing on the storytelling, game mechanics, implementation, and sound design. So, I had the opportunity to do some game music.

I’m exploring the SN76477. Heavily inspired by Thomas Henry, but with added MIDI in (with pitch bend and vibrato via the mod wheel). Next step is the envelopes, then the noise, and then a VCF…

Yes! And that is more important!

What’s your plan?

I have some AY-3-891x that I want to explore a bit… so, that’s the start at least. 😊

A breast board with +5V power connected and an oscillator. And in front a few more oscillators. The oscillators are 1Mhz, 4MHz, and 8MHz.

Hopefully I’ll be on time now… #diyelectronics #synthdiy

Another synth module is coming together. This’ll be a mono synth based on the SN76489AN sound chip with a Korg (late) MS20 voltage controlled filter. #synthdiy #modular #eurorack

An old IC on a white breadboard

Old ceramic ICs give some seriousness and credibility to my tinkering… 4-bit ALU from 1976.

The presentation environment with colorful paintings

Yesterday I talked about how sound can change the way we experience art during an evening program in the exhibition of Olle Bonniér’s art at Norrköping’s art museum.

Please allow me to introduce myself
I'm a man of wealth and taste
I've been around for a long, long year
Stole many a man's soul and faith

I’m sorry but no. There are schematics and PDB files if you want?

The SAA1099 ICs?

Hey all! I'm doing a quick study about how people use metaphors to describe sound. If you can spare 5-10 minutes, please take my survey! carletonu.az1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_... Thank you! #sounddesign

A display showing the words Academic Mindtrek 2025

Just arrived at the Academic Mindtrek 2025 conference. In the afternoon we’ll be presenting our reflections on how we use storytelling and world building as pedagogical tools for teaching physical interaction design. #AcademicSky

A black and white photo of a young couple in a “boat” on stage

I have one of my grandparents performing on stage sometime during the 1930s… I believe my grandmother was in her late teens at the time. I guess that's where I got my desire to be creative and my love for music…

I finally finished the SAA1099 sound chip module! #eurorack #synthdiy #modular

Old industrial yellow buildings close to water

My work environment, I love working at a university campus close to water. ❤️

The SAA1099 module is coming together nicely. A few tweaks of the code that creates different envelopes for the six sound channels and it should all be finished. Here four sound channels are used (the blip melody is heavily influenced by an old Boytronic song): #synthdiy #eurorack #modular
