My name is Brian Whitman. I am a lapsed scientist and sound artist currently co-founder/CTO at The Echo Nest, a music intelligence company in Somerville, MA. As I work on various scaling and media search problems with detours into art projects I'll be posting details here in the hopes that I can learn from others. I'd always like to hear from you if you are working on similar things.

One thing i forgot to mention in my overview of the eminently hackable DSP friendly GP2X Wiz is that it also can be a portable Atari ST. I will have to buy another one to use for “work” I guess. If you showed this picture to my 11 year old self… well, I guess I would have said “that’s a huge pen!” Pictured is Time Bandit, definitely the best Atari ST game (though there were many.) I cut my teeth on this machine, so forgive the brief nostalgia. Now, I wonder if the MIDI ports get routed over USB on this thing….
