#Miniaturisation of #musical (#studio) #equipment is not specific to #modular #synths, it's the sign of times. Personally, I never really clicked with tiny instruments like Pocket Operators or Volcas. Even the user interface of Roland Boutique series is too small for my mental landscape. However there exists an entire scene of instagram musicians who successfully utilise small format instruments for creating easy-to-understand #music making #videos for the #social #media audience.

“As large language models #LLMs become commercial #commodities, there is a growing focus on making them smaller and faster. Small models, which can be squeezed onto fewer chips, are much less expensive to train and to run—some can even run on a laptop or #smartphone.”

An #Introduction:

I'm the #Curator of #Herpetology at the #NaturalHistoryMuseum of #Denmark, and #AsstProf of #Vertebrate #Zoology at the University of Copenhagen.

I work in evolutionary and systematic herpetology, working on a variety of topics including #museomics, #macroevolution, #convergence, #phylogeography, #speciation, #systematics, and #taxonomy. I mostly work on the #amphibians and #reptiles of #Madagascar. #Miniaturisation is my jam.
