art-science Presentation Update

art-sci title page

This is an update of my presentation about art-science as an interdisciplinary activity, and why I like to do it, which I gave at Napier Institute for Informatics and Digital Innovation. Not very text based, so might not be coherent on it's own!

Creating a Syntax Highlighting, Outlining editor with Eclipse and XText

I've been working with LPJ-Guess recently. It's a digital vegetation model, but that's not important to this discussion. What's important is that it has it's own, non-standard config syntax. Editing this can be confusing, without the tools that we take for granted, like syntax highlighting, and outline editors etc.

The latest version Eclipse comes with Xtext, which is designed for easy generation of parsers and editors for DSLs, so this looks like a perfect test case.

OpenFlights and MongoDB

I often find that I want to do more advanced queries of airports/cities than search engines allow, e.g. find me large cities which I can fly to from both these places and not have to travel more than 50km at the end.

Album Review

I just came across a review of some of my albums online: [1]. Always nice to have a good review.

Also a reminder of how much difference CC licensing makes. Because of this, the good folks at Black Lantern knew they could put my work up on the Free Music Archive. As a result of that, I've had a couple of reviews, and had music re-used in some videos, and on websites. Great exposure!
