I am Muirén, and my specific focus with Spelkast Theater, is leveraging the potential of MIDI 2.0, to enable a flexible, highly adaptive cyber-physical framework for cooperative creation, community relationship management, and seamlessly immersive participatory performance.

Foundational specifications for MIDI 2.0 were released in February 2020, which allowed MIDI Association members, including Operating System companies, to start practical implementation of the MIDI 2.0 specification.

This is an extension of 🧙🏾‍♀️TınyMaker.Space™ Project, the organizing, evangelizing force, and funding source for my goal of establishing a permanent home and makerspace that is self-supporting through its own efforts, primarily through sales of my uniquely crafted, tangible fusions of art and tech, as well as performing arts.

Create MIDI 2.0 Apps using Windows MIDI Services and C# Code

With host Pete Brown
Principal Software Engineer of the Windows Developer Platform team at Microsoft, focusing on client-side DEV on Windows apps and technology for musicians, music app developers and music hardware developers. Pete is also the current chair of the Executive Board of the MIDI Association

The open-source Windows MIDI Services project (https://aka.ms/midi) is nearing its first consumer release, and is getting ready to be in-boxed in Windows.

In this session, learn about what the new MIDI stack brings, and then learn how to use the developer preview bits available today to create MIDI 2.0 and MIDI 1.0 apps for Windows, including virtual devices, USB, and more, all using C#.

John Carpenter • Alan Howarth • Darkness Begins

It’s that time of year when darkness takes on a special meaning, and for those of a certain age and temperament, there are some fond but chilling memories of John Carpenter’s apocalyptic trilogy of films.

This is my cover of the “Darkness Begins” theme by John Carpenter and Alan Howarth. And I’ve made use of a MuseScore Studio to craft the arrangement, and employed a blend of modern sampled acoustic wavetable and classic analog synthesizers by Arturia, in this homage to the 1987 film “Prince of Darkness”, and the “Darkness Begins” theme
