I’ve been trying to find more time lately to experiment with C++ and get more familiar with the OpenGL API and to achieve this have been using the excellent Cinder library.

Design : Avant-Gard Audio Ocularisms with AS3 ComputeSpectrum
One of the most interesting projects I have worked on recently has just been launched!
It’s called Bandcamp, and is the brain child of Ethan Diamond and Shawn Grunberger, both from Oddpost (which you’ll know these days as Yahoo! Mail).
In short, Bandcamp is a “free hosted publishing platform for musicians”, although there is much more to it than that, including… Read : Bandcamp Music Visualisations »
