"I have been into some heavy synth sessions over the last few weeks and this is somehow the essence of them.

The sequencing part has been recorded in one step and is mainly an eight step sequence which is being altered by the skip and jump functions of the Dark Time. The second row of the sequencer slightly modulates the filter. Pads, leads and sfx were multitracked and completely played with my Waldorf Blofeld. By the way did I already mention that this is a great synth with huge potential? :-)"

Another Buchla 200e improv. It reminds of an early Cabaret Voltaire piece. Please listen with headphones or you'll lose the bass frequencies altogether."

STEIM At Risk Again - The new vision for Dutch media arts

Updates via the comments: scan from the NYTimes via bauke van der wal and via wtr "The message posted above is not the official letter from STEIM, they will respond after the vote in parlament this monday, this was a personal message from Jon, but still very important..." See the comments in this post for more.

Original post:

If you've been coming to this site for a while, you might recall this post back on May 22, 2008 regarding STEIM being at risk of losing it's funding. On December 2, 2008 this post went up announcing they were safe. Well it looks like they are at risk yet again. The following is the content of an email from STEIM forwarded to me by John Levin.

Subject: "The new vision for Dutch media arts"
Body: "Dear friends and colleagues,
I apologize for the mass-emailing, this is quite important. You may have heard already about the new cultural plan for the Netherlands being pushed through by the current government, a minority coalition of market liberals and conservatives backed by Geert Wilders' anti-immigration freedom party.

While all federal programs in the Netherlands are taking hit, none are being hit so hard, so disproportionately, and so directly as the arts and culture sector. Particularly disastrous will be the cuts within the arts and technology sector. All new media art institutions in the Netherlands will be completely defunded, this includes STEIM, V2, the Waag, and other institutes with long histories and international reputations. These labs provide local and international artists space and support to perform, exhibit, and develop the cutting edge new art forms of our times. Their loss will be devastating to the Netherlands' cultural scene and deeply felt throughout the international media arts world.

The funding cuts will go into effect in 2013. The government has ignored the advice of the arts council, who suggested a phased-in solution which would give artists and organizations time to react and formulate new plans. This move illustrates the underlying motives of the politicians: not for a restructuring of support for the arts, but rather a direct attack against the culture of art that has prevailed
for so long in the Netherlands. The cuts are, in effect, a cultural coup d'etat.

So, what can you do? The unfortunate answer is, not very much. The politicians are implementing this new vision of Dutch culture with a vengeance, and will probably approve the cuts during the vote on Monday. The best thing to do is spread awareness of the situation, both in the Netherlands and abroad through your networks.

There are also two petitions being circulated prior to the Parliament vote this Monday. Please sign them and share.

http://petities.nl/petitie/bezuinigen-op-cultuur-zonder-alle-feiten-nooit
(general petition, goal: 40,000 signatures by Monday)

http://www.change.org/petitions/save-dutch-media-art-orgs-govt-plans-to-slash-them-all
(specifically to support Media Arts organizations)

If you live in the Netherlands there's more you can do to help. There is a large protest being organized during the vote on Monday. According to lobbyists close to the government in the Hague, a large presence here could slow down the legislation and give arts organizations more time to develop alternative plans for survival.

More information on the protests can be found here:

Thank you and please share!

Best always,
Jon

"FL Studio Mobile - http://www.image-line.com/documents/flstudiomobile.html

FL Studio Mobile for the iPod Touch, iPhone and iPad. Tutorial on getting started.

If you want, load mobile projects into FL Studio and take them to the next level.

FL Studio Mobile is coming soon! - FAQ - http://support.image-line.com/knowledgebase/base.php?id=85&ans=200

Yes the hand is inside the iPad. With proper training and diet it is possible to fit the FL Studio Guru INSIDE an iPad.

FL STUDIO MOBILE FAQ

What about Android OS? It's on the roadmap, stop nagging! We have a development team working on a low-latency Android audio-engine and there are many screen resolutions and device specifications to consider, it's not as simple as you may think :)

Does this mean FL Studio on Mac OSX soon? FL Studio Mobile is not a port of the Windows version of FL Studio. It is the product of a completely separate development team, and code, so FL Studio Mobile, while compatible with FL Studio has no impact on FL Studio development and vice versa.

Can I load my own samples? Not in version 1.0. We plan to enable user uploads in a future update.

Can I use VSTs? No, iOS does not support VSTs and frankly the devices it runs on don't have the CPU power to perform the synthesis you are used to on a desktop. FL Studio Mobile uses high quality sample based instruments made from Image-Line plugins and sample packs.
