Splitting hairs, but...Sound Design isn't smashing fruit into a microphone. It's thinking carefully about how to tell your hearing brain a vivid story your nervous system will understand. Then we smash the fruits. xoxo

I pulled out my lap steel today for a track. Anyone have a guess on who JF stands for?

Poll: What music streaming service is everyone using? Spotify Apple Music Youtube Amazon Sound Cloud Other?

Amazing! In 1996 a Star Trek game featured a Klingon Language Learning Lab mini game. klingon.wiki/En/LanguageLab

@garethcoker @wabisabisound @thebeauanthony @OriTheGame and @geoffgarnett. Ori is in my heart...the creative collaboration with you and the Moon team at large was a special time. Remember this...

Going to use this opportunity (with some obvious bias!) to highlight @wabisabisound @andrewlackey @thebeauanthony work on Ori 1 @OriTheGame . Specifically the Bash ability. Anyone who's played the game will instantly know the sound in their head and how perfectly it synergizes with the animation which in turn reinforces the satisfaction of the gameplay hook it is tied to. When you can't imagine something else in its place that to me is the ultimate success.

@Futurebirds @highball_atl I went Saturday. It rocked my face off. tip of the hat to the whole line up and show producers. Great day

@andrewlackey @highball_atl It’s outdoors.

Guess what turned 15 years old today? Enormous waves of gratitude go out to the Wabi team present and past. Also, a most humble thanks to the clients who have trusted us with their precious projects. Here’s to 15 more years of the same. wabisabisound.com

@wilco has great taste in guest musicians. @fayewebsters LOVED seeing you jump on stage for Jesus, etc. in Athens.

@dannthr @minuskelvin Xenon was a very big advancement for audio. So much cool cutting edge audio tech went into game.

Didn't realize Suzanne Ciani had worked in game audio before--so awesome to hear her talk about her goals for the user's experience! Thanks for sharing the link, @minuskelvin! youtube.com/watch?v=r28i-k…

Every freelancer and small biz owner needs a business education of some sort. Even creatives...ESPECIALLY CREATIVES. I could write a book on this subject...maybe I will.

Working on my sound vocabulary: tintinnabulum = a bell peal = ringing sound like from bells lilting = lively rising sound or song dulcet = soft pleasant sound caterwaul = obnoxious high note Got any other good ones?

@EmilySaliers <3, wishing you 11 more. Xoxo from CP

11 years sober today, one day at a time. If you’re suffering- there is a solution❤️

@alexprevity This creative project is a life's work. Congrats

There's another cool project I was involved with that just came out this week! ~Introducing Romy, born on November 10th, 2022~ 😊

@TimNielsen We saw it with the kids at the theater. Perfect family film that wasn’t a stock kids movie. I still have to go with Everything, Everywhere as my foty, but Marcel is really special as well.

Marcel the Shell with Shoes On is by far the best film of the year for me so far. And it has one of the most beautiful 'sound' moments of any film this year too. Hats off to the entire crew, it was a fantastic sound job. Sad that so few people will probably have seen this film.

Jobs! Great Team, Amazing Culture, Killer Project...and work with Wabi;) #gamedev SENIOR LIGHTING ARTIST SENIOR VFX ARTIST AI DESIGNER LEAD SYSTEMS DESIGNER SENIOR SYSTEMS DESIGNER midwinter.net

@minuskelvin @TimSweeneyEpic Yeah sorta my point being made...notation isn't performance. It's like saying all poetry should be written in french. Any system expounding to be better than another is just waiting for an artist to break it.

Musical notation is silly and inefficient. Much better if everyone moved to piano roll notation. It's symmetric across octaves and much more visually intuitive. youtube.com/watch?v=5Yamu7…
