Cryptocracy

I wrote a geek ambient rendition of my new cryptographic protocol: the Time Capsule.

Listen to it. Leave a comment.

Whew,

I just finished my second patent evaluation in two weeks.  I am exhausted.

It's been a while since I last posted any of my music.

Today I put up a couple of new ones on my music page.

I have finally decided to embrace my nerd, and both pieces are quite geeky.  The first one "commitment" is about components of the identity mixer cryptosystem with which I work.  The extra secret geek factor is that many of the samples are transmissions from RFID credit cards that I captured with an oscilloscope and then used matlab to convert into audible frequencies.  Other instrumentation includes Juno 106 analog synth and shortwave radio.

The other new piece "Atmospheric Robots" is the second in a planned trillogy of songs about terreforming robots that get infected with extraterrestrial malcode, destroy our space colonies and then head for earth.  In this second piece humanity starts fighting back by debugging some captured robots.  These robots were created to build an earth-like atmosphere for the moons of Jupiter, and have a semi-autonomous flocking behavior that make them our best hope for regaining some control and defending earth.

If you have any feedback, please share it.  Just like an evolving draft of a paper, I like an external perspective on my tunes.
