I've spent a bit of time recently on one particular coding project of mine: Go-Sound , which is a library for sound manipulation and analysis written in Golang. When explaining it to people however, it turns out that not many people know how sounds work - indeed, I didn't until recently - which is interesting as it's something we use all the time (statistically, you're probably hearing something while reading this) but don't really know much about. This post is an introduction to the library, but also hopefully serves as a tutorial about what sound actually is. Sound = changing pressure When you hear a sound, what are you actually sensing? Sound waves are actually changes in pressure that are picked up by your eardrum. When you hit a drum, or pluck a string, or blow air through a tube, you are vibrating the air, and these pressure changes travel out in all directions - if they hit an ear, those changes will get interpreted as sounds. Once convenient way to rep...
Pegasi merchandise! Not bad quality if I may say so myself :) Nothing else too interesting happening over here, more from me when it does. I hope all is well for the two or three people reading this :p

ReplyDeleteI don't suppose there's more than one such item of merchandise. I would buy a Pegasi jumper if it supports the band. I would even wear it in Summer.
Nah quiz seems to be a lot less popular nowadays. No-one's been for a few weeks. Maybe it's just not as Crumpalicious without you and Bodie and Courteney and stuff. Apparently two teams won the jackpot question one night, but I wasn't there.
Denley says you'll come back for Easter, so I'm looking forward to that. Keep up the fine blogging.
