Question : Hey Phil, do you actually do any programming these days?
Answer : Yes. Quite a lot at the moment. Though it's a bit all over the shop.
I'm dipping a toe into Android programming. (And, hmmm ... Java .... I thought I'd got over my Java hangups by doing a lot of Processing, but it turns out that Processing just hides the crap and Android doesn't. Why hasn't Google picked up on Processing to turn it into a first-class Android art / game app. development environment?)
I'm mainly writing CoffeeScript. Some stuff related to my ongoing 3D modelling / desktop manufacturing projects. (Did I forget to mention those? I'm sure there's a half-written blogpost somewhere.) Some work towards an SdiDesk-derived network diagramming plugin for Smallest Federated Wiki (held up by silly problems). Some other bits and pieces. I've recently been playing with Jison, which rocks. And I'm about to investigate angular.js which looks pretty good.
There's a project for small stand-alone web-servers that I'll talk about more if / when it takes off.
I've been trying to compile example VST instruments (C++) for some of my work with the Brasilia Laptop Orchestra, but it's driving me crazy. (I may go back to Pure Data which can be embedded in a VST.)
A bit of PHP, just simple small web-services.
I'm going to be teaching an Arduino course soon. So I'll be writing a bit of C and I want to try Occam-Ⲡ.
I'm still writing Python too. Mainly for short file transformation scripts or to prototype algorithms that later get translated into CoffeeScript.
Some of this stuff is headed for GitHub soon.
