What am I up to?

	·		I have a small software development company called Particular Programs Ltd. We publish audio software for developers through our foolishly-named website Breakfast Quay and sell end-user applications at Rubber Band Audio.
	·		Between 2005 and 2020 (full-time) and from 2023 onward (part-time) I worked as a developer in the Centre for Digital Music at Queen Mary University of London.
	·		While there, from 2010 to 2014 I worked on the SoundSoftware project, aiming to help audio and music researchers in UK academia manage software development more productively.
	·		I have a blog, a LinkedIn profile, photos on Flickr, occasional tweets, and potential non-tweets.

Software new and old.

	·		Sonic Visualiser, a free program for looking at the contents of digital audio files, particularly of music.
	·		Sounds Different, a commercial desktop application for comparative visualisation of music audio recordings.
	·		Rubber Band Library, an audio time-stretching and pitch-shifting library and utility program. GPL with commercial licence available.
	·		Rubber Band Audio, a small commercial utility applying Rubber Band Library in musically useful ways.
	·		Rosegarden, an audio and MIDI sequencer and musical notation editor for Linux.
	·		EasyMercurial, a friendly user interface for the Mercurial version control system.
	·		Vamp, an interface for audio analysis and feature extraction plugins.
	·		You can find more projects I have worked on at Github, SourceHut, or the SoundSoftware code site.

Software even older.

	·		Studio to Go!, a commercial Linux distribution of music and audio applications: discontinued in 2008, but you can still read a review or a couple of articles about it.
	·		The DSSI audio effects and instrument plugin interface, and dssi-vst plugin adapter.
	·		wm2 and wmx X11 window managers.
	·		Bitmap Garamond and Codec one-size BDF bitmap screen fonts.
	·		Mandarin big-5 online annotator with matching grammar notes for complete beginners like me.
	·		An OpenGL hack for xscreensaver inspired by SGI electropaint. No longer worth your time: this program is infinitely better.
	·		A simple Missile Command style game for X11.

Very short stories.
