Updating your profile

I have wanted to update my profile, but I haven't discovered how to do it. I cold then add my Mastodon account.

Creative Commons dubstep

In commenting on 3808 and Ken musing about a best of CCHits playlist, I am reminded of his comments during the end of CCHits show about developing a love of dubstep. I would **love** a curated CC Dubstep playlist. Does it exist yet Ken?

Forth pun?

Dave mentioned in reference to 3818 that he used a Forth called Ample on a synth he has. A sly reference perhaps to:

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ampleforth_College

Comment #4 posted on 2024-02-27 19:28:21 by Dave Morriss

Re: Forth pun?

Hi elmussol,

Is this a "pun too far"? I have no idea about the origin of Ample as the language for running the Music 500 synthesiser for the BBC micro. It's documented as Forth-like, and was probably my only real experience of such languages.

I did manage to code (transcribe) some music back in the day, though the BBC Micro couldn't manage anything of any length due to it storing the Ample in RAM.

I found the following about the Music 500, which I'd hoarded with the intention of maybe doing a show about it. Id' have to resurrect my BBC Micro and find the Music 500 to do it though!
