Hey! #demoscene people... is there any interest by demo coders to submit videos for our animation array slot on #TheIndieBeatTelevision??
If you know anyone in the scene please ask them to check out:
As a viewer, I am definitely interested in watching and listening: demoscene has always been as much about the #chiptune music for me as well as the #graphics.
Who knows, if there is enough interest and material, maybe we could have an expanded time slot.

Free Software that I rely on. One per day.
Day 7:
ImageMagick
This is actually a small suite of tools that can be used from the command line, although it also has a GUI interface. Pretty old school software; been around for ages; still very handy.
Not as powerful as Gimp or Krita for manipulating a single image, but with ImageMagick and a bash script you can make changes en masse ("convert" and "mogrify" -- which does the job in place). You can quickly check the format and size of images from the command line ("identify") or simply pop up the image with "display".
Finally, with "compose" you can make an image combining multiple images in many different ways, including making a grid with or without labels.
I don't use it as much as I used to, but it is still the simplest way to check image content from the command line. And it's really the only option when you need to change a whole lot of images at once.
Also often used on server back ends to manipulate images for display in web applications.

I'm looking for a graphics person to turn a portrait into a single color vector image (and possibly a few other tweaks) for later open publication.
DM me if you are interested!

Day 6:
Audacity
Another old one! I think I've been using Audacity for about 25 years, now.
It is a "destructive audio editor", which means it is kind of the audio equivalent to a bitmap editor in graphics -- you are actually changing the values of the samples in the recording when you make changes, rather than applying filters on top of them as non-destructive editors do.
This makes Audacity particularly good at constructing sound effects from recorded sources.
I do most of my audio processing in Audacity, but even if I do involve a non-destructive "DAW" platform, I would probably continue to use Audacity for creating effects and recording voices.
It is an excellent tool for recording audio directly or reviewing and selecting audio from field recordings.
