Nanoloop is a mobile music software that provides all functionality you need to create nice electronic music. With its clear, minimalistic interface it plays almost like a game while still allowing for complex musical structures as well as sheer noise.

Nanoloop for iPhone combines sequencer, synthesizer and sampler in one package. Features include:

– Six channels, each can be synth or sampler
– Fast and easy to use stepsequencer
– Synthesizer with envelope, filter, LFO and other parameters
– Sample external audio or nanoloop’s own sound output
– Song editor with loop function
– Save function
– Works on 1st gen iPod touch and 2.2 software
– Send and receive projects via e-mail, using the iPhone’s / iPod’s e-mail program

I found out about it via creativeApplications.net, and I loved the simplicity of the interface straightaway!!

Faceted Browsing: a conceptual map http://www.michelepasin.org/blog/2009/03/05/faceted-browsing-a-conceptual-map/ http://www.michelepasin.org/blog/2009/03/05/faceted-browsing-a-conceptual-map/#comments Thu, 05 Mar 2009 16:26:03 +0000 http://magicrebirth.wordpress.com/2009/03/05/faceted-browsing-a-conceptual-map/ UPDATE 8/6/11: I uploaded an improved version of the map Faceted search (navigation, or browsing) is a technique for accessing a collection of information represented using a faceted classification, allowing users to explore by filtering available information. A faceted classification system allows the assignment of multiple classifications to an object, enabling the classifications to be ordered in multiple ways, rather than in a single, pre-determined, taxonomic order.

There are quite a few resources freely available on the web that might help you with building a faceted browser; to this purpose (and in conjunction with a research seminar we had at CCH) I’ve put together a conceptual map that attempts to organize this wealth of information a bit more..
