The Loop of the Tiger

January 29, 2018January 29, 2018 ~ Ianier Munoz ~ Leave a comment

Many great pieces of music come to us from a time when popular songs were the ultimate expression of artistic talent rather than mere technological achievements. That's not to say that good songs are no longer written today; however, in my opinion music is consumed – and produced – nowadays in such a way that … Continue reading The Loop of the Tiger

The Left-Handed Guitar-Playing Animal

I learned only recently that animals can exhibit handedness, or simply put, that some species statistically tend to prefer one side over the other.

Something Went Wrong with Release 98 Chronotron version 98 was a bit of a sloppy release, to say the least. It turned out that a nasty Microsoft compiler bug caused Chronotron to crash on some systems, rendering the app unusable for some of you. Crash telemetry data from the Windows Store. The peak occurs at … Continue reading Release 99 is Now in the Store
