The days are short and mostly gray, which, to be honest, I do not mind. I enjoy sitting at home in front of a screen when it is dark outside.

While sitting at home, I was playing with context2d in the browser. The idea was to create an animation for one of my tracks. While switching between synth and vim, I discovered the distortion effect and lost sleep over it. Finishing something is hard, and music is no exception. At some point I got distracted by an urge to make a game and I started to learn Bevy, by building a Crimsonland-inspired game. Which I abandoned because I got an idea of how to make LFO-based animation factory...

There is no way I will be that productive in summer.

A few notable things happened:

  • I had a birthday.
  • We visited the Alpine Museum.
  • We went to the opera.

#Birthday

For a few years in a row, I was sick on my birthday. Once, we got tickets to The Black Angels show in Barcelona and had to cancel everything because I was extremely ill. Because of that, we were not planning anything.

I did not get sick (yey!), so we hiked along the wild parts of Isar and had a bit of adventure.

#Alpine museum.

It feels like it has been closed forever. But finally the renovation is finished and everyone can visit it. There are stories/pictures about mountaineering as exposition and the library. We liked it.

#Opera

We went to see Die Fledermaus, and it was awesome. The last time I went to the opera was when I was a kid. It was incredibly boring, and I hated it. This time, I liked every bit of it. The decorations are so brilliant that whoever designed them deserves a (p)raise. The way the actors used those decorations to act blew my mind. And it even had English subtitles. How cool is that?
