  • @BarbNerdy 🐿️ Auch gerne :) Hast Du zufällig Thymiansamen, Salbeisamen, Oreganosamen? Ich habe bald auch noch Calendula - Blätter und Blüten sind ein Genuß, und antioxi usw.

    Pure cash somehow, but that isn't a point. Peeling seeds out of dry Red Russian Kale fruit is super easy and calming mind and fingers, too. Brassica oleracea Acephala that is. Nutritional value of leaves and seeds = GREAT btw. Each of the fruit contains approx. 20 seeds (a very conservative estimate).

    Buying suchg seeds online costs between 2.29£ per 400 seeds or even 2.99€ per 80 seeds here, plus shipping. The latter amounts to a kilo price of more than 8K €. Oh yeah.

    Anyone in Berlin Wedding wants some for free? Just one plant on my window sill is great to have already, and of course in am open to edible other things, if you have some.

    Harvesting image - a bit blurry.

    Here's a leaf. They taste a little salty, mild, in fact quite different from classical Kale, like [!red russian kale leaf IMG_20240421_180619.jpg](https://hub.kliklak.net/photos/jrp/image/e6692aa7-d6ed-4fc6-92ac-4ff6771a2e80)

    My new broadcast for tomorrow's @Biesentales radio show "Too fast to grasp" airs from 19h30 to 21h Berlin time and will feature longer works by Tyshawn Sorey, Adam Rudolph, Sae Hashimoto, Russel

    My new broadcast for tomorrow's @Biesentales radio show "Too fast to grasp" airs from 19h30 to 21h Berlin time and will feature longer works by Tyshawn Sorey, Adam Rudolph, Sae Hashimoto, Russel Greenberg, Levy Lorenzo, Yarn/Wire, Emiliano Pennisi, João MS, Héliodrome and myself. The complete arrangement has been contextualized by an overlay of massively slowed/pitched down bat recordings from my back yard in Berlin for locality and its ambience.

    I hope you'll enjoy and I'll post the complete tracklisting with links to artist sites afterwards, as always. Please follow @Biesentales for regular updates.

    Kinked - Fire Chilled The Air, and Air Became The Great Wind https://riforma.bandcamp.com/album/fire-chilled-the-air-and-air-became-the-great-wind Quite brilliant electroacoustic music, very concrete and self-story-telling - it even get's comical at times. Mastered well by Giuseppe Ielasi, who tends to work a lot of good stuff.

    Another Oktava MK-012 omni matched pair capsules frequency diagram.
  • @ivan zlax In terms of simply reading the diagram, yes. Yet, when using the data to create a calibration file, then one would declare a particular level to be 0dB (here probably approx. 26 dB ^= 0dB) and then write out the data set relative to this new 0dB line. This results in a logarhythmical sequency of levels per frequency (20Hz to 20000Hz), levels deviating up or down from 0 dB, and can as such be used later to recalibrate/equalize a recorded signal to have a flat frequency response.

    This is used in calibration of listebning setups, which is, what i am doing with my oktavas here at the moment. Besides i love them for recording of course, and then i don't care if the have a flat/neutral frequency response, i love them for their special sound.

  • Oktava MK-012-01 hypercardiod microphones, matched pair, calibration protocols below - two coordinate systems, each for one mic, measurements from 20Hz to 20KHz in 0° (top), 90° (center) and 180°
  • @ivan zlax Hey Ivan, i hope, that you are doing fine. One thing I would love to pass on to the marvellous engineers at Oktava is, that their microphone clients would benefit a lot from finding data sets/value lists of their frequency diagram on a dedicated Oktava page.
    If such lists were available upon entering a serial number into a page on their website, then customers could escape a lot of the possible errors, when doing a manual scan yourself.

    ? Is there a software for this type of thing?

  • Listening to field recordings containing percussion jams from my Januar trip to La Reunión/Mauritius.

    Listening to field recordings containing percussion jams from my Januar trip to La Reunión/Mauritius. It's marvelous to drastically limit the frequency response of the original recordings - and then add a slap-back delay, noticably louder than the original and with even more narrow frequency response. This focusses everything into one. And it lends the quality of an intense & sparkling memory, rather than just appearing to be a full frequency natural #recording. The almost always massive ocean waves in the background are a lovely detail. Beautiful.

    So that's that. Now pondering a strategy to recompose all this into a work of its own. (The usual surgical digital tools are crying "use me!" into my ears, but that seems all too worn out. Got to be more haptic)
