Tomorrow will post some music made with this system, it really becames expressive after a while.

today my electro-harmonix memoryman stompbox got back to life, after i’ve discovered that the problem was a fried up diode in the protection circuit at the power inlet.

a small drop of solder solved (temporary solution) the mutism of the blue man, remaining operational hopefully until next thursday for live manglings @ Quadrum Gallery.

here’s a recording from yesterday’s solo improv session @ the studio, to celebrate the beginning of the Summer (at least here in the Northern Hemisphere).

today is the renewal day @ ruigato.info, the chance to update the web presence finally came up.

feel free to explore the site, it’s under permanent change and evolution.

i will try to fill the web pages with pieces of my work, as they are gathered, organized and uploaded into the cloud.

enjoy !
