Inspired by seeing something similar in some other blogs and newsletters I thought I’d add a live list of the stuff I’m learning about currently: eg: clever websites, tools and books!
It’s updated as I go.
Currently
- [ ] Residuality Theory :
- how to architect; why is architecture so ad hoc?
- Complexity theory
- [ ] the book: Residues: Time, Change, and Uncertainty in Software Architecture
- [ ] Speed Up Your Python with Rust :
- Really enjoying the brisk pace
- Love the step-by-step hands-on grounding in making pip packages and how installing works
- Need a diagram to track the entry points and exits of the Rust code to Python; all a bit confused rn!
- Have to learn Rust properly however
- [ ] deploy onto raspberry pi: The project I have in mind (music stuff!) will run on a Pi; this gets it there. I hope!
- [ ] Making Sounds
- There’s a whole world of music processing tech! One of those niche’s that progress along on their own slightly obscured from outsiders: with their own leaders, vocab, common knowledge… Unless you dive in and make sense of it all!
- [ ] Pure data : impressive and Fun. but so quirky!
- [ ] Pure data book : Step-by-step; bit slow, but it’s thorough
- [x] The Theory and Technique of Electronic Music Book pdf - Miller Puckette: PD creator; starts simple, dives deep. Abandoned for now.
- [ ] SuperCollider : PD alternative
- Rust. Low latency / triggers / Midi even? Not sure, but it’s building blocks
-
[ ] Rust Audio :
- [ ] Rust Audio book : Not started
-
[ ] Simpy : Python simulation framework; fun. Want to make a game, with the engine built around a sim.py simulation. Need a topic!
- Kafka Streams
- [ ] Kafka Streams in Action :
- Not started
- [ ] Mastering Kafka Streams
- started; nice introduction, good pace; lots in it
- Going to want to dive into the famous ‘data intensive applications’ book by Klepperman again. (New edition incoming!)
Gawd, there’s a lot on my mind.
