⭐ Hi ontwerpers, (digitale) makers en architecten. Kennen jullie de subsidies van het @stimuleringsfonds?
🗺️ Sindskort ben ik de Limburg-scout voor dit rijkscultuurfonds.
🎨 Ik wil jullie (creatievelingen en organisaties) graag informeren, enthousiasmeren en natuurlijk ontdekken.
⁉️ Alle vragen zijn welkom op scout.limburg@stimuleringsfonds.nl.
Stay tuned... :)
If you can, stop using non-stick pans. PFAS is absolutely horrible stuff. So much is clear now. Better pans also last practically forever, as opposed to planned obsolescence.
All/most Dear Reality plugins are now free (abandonware) as the company merges further into Sennheiser’s Immersive Audio department. Spatial, binaural, reverb and resynthesis. #FreeVST #SpatialAudio

Looking for #NoiseCancelling advice. 90% of the time I'm happy with the ANC of Airpods Pro G2. But, sometimes, when I need to work in for example a very noise café, I want to really strongly dampen all the voices and background music. Would #InEarMonitors be a good option? Other recommendations?

GIMP 3.0 is released, check it out!
https://www.gimp.org/news/2025/03/16/gimp-3-0-released/
A huge THANK YOU to everyone who contributed in any way - from testing and submitting bug reports through to designing, coding, fixing, packaging, testing some more, translating, documenting, hosting, administration, so many people, so much work, so much to be thankful for!
Welcome to GIMP 3.0!
My secret weapon for #AudioEditing / #SoundDesign = #FFMPEG + #ChatGPT (other LLM’s are probably fine for this too). What can you do with it? An endless amount of batch editing and conversion tasks (also incl. #VideoEditing !); generate a large amount of variations on a sound (based on for example a folder full of samples + audio analysis and transformation); recursive/#fractal like creativity. This often involves generating a combination of an FFMPEG terminal command + .sh #ShellScript.

Looking through the discussion, yes. The Heritage Foundation said they plan to identify and doxx Wikipedia editors through (among other things) tracking traffic that follows links to their website from Wikipedia. The Wikipedia editors are taking the threat seriously. The main source is this article:

Coming soon to NAP: Applets! Applets are standalone NAP application that can be spawned in another host process, completely thread safe.
Applets inside our editor enable developers or end-users to preview and inspect content before it is fully integrated into the main application, giving them a better understanding of what they are authoring. The texture preview applet demonstrates this functionality:
@briankrebs those who support that DOGE group definitely have no sense or knowledge of hacker philosophy. As if Facebook naming their own street Hacker Way wasn’t ignorant enough….
We are excited to announce that open source NAP Framework is now supported by 'Stichting Nap Labs' - our new endeavour as non-profit.
Over the past few years, our powerful, low-overhead automation and visualisation platform, NAP Framework, has gained increasing recognition and attracted users from around the world. As a vital toolkit relied upon by developers, companies, and organisations, we felt it was the right time to establish a non-profit to support this ambitious open-source project.
Today is “our” day; in the Dutch Grote Kunstkalender is the work “time=color” by Sigrid Calon and Coen Kloesters featured. This is one of our first smaller art works available all coded with open source platform NAPframework. #napframework #naplabs #sigridcalon #digitalart #artwork

Freesound 2024 in numbers:
"...appeared which were not common (e.g. soundtrack, industrial, underground, dark, loopable). The usual suspects are still relevant (e.g. field-recording, ambient, drum, synth), but their relative size has been diminished. We have already seen many times how, even if many sounds are uploaded every year by many contributors, it is definitely possible for a single user uploading many sounds to change the distribution..."

I do also enjoy Bluesky though.
