After a week of packing orders and testing modules now have most of the BTFLD orders in the mail, so if you ordered one look for a shipping notification and if you still want one we have them in stock and should be back to shipping next day.

It's worth checking out for a nice bit of philosophy chat, some jamming, and some demoing of the Three Body and Nibbler. For this year I will give a talk titled "Warped Perspectives: Exploring Types of Distortion, Applications and Techniques” and will be getting a bit into different types of processes we refer to as distortion and different ways to think about as well as use...
