From the project
🍂 is in the air...
After spending the day at my computer, I stepped out with friends Saturday night for a burger. On the patio of our local institution, the air was cool.
I had been wanting to squeeze a Ferris Sweep out of a Xiao somehow and it occurred to me as I later continued working that maybe I was actually trying to make a 28 key keyboard. I reached for a leaf to lay over the keys: the maple fit nicely, conjuring memories of beurre d'érable (maple butter) in Montreal's Jean-Talon Market.
