In summer 2023, I made a 31edo kalimba. Around the same time, [[Kite Giedraitis]] and I made an even larger 41edo kalimba with a Kite guitar inspired key layout. Speaking of Kite guitar, I also have one of those. I actually have pretty much no formal guitar training and hadn't gotten into guitar seriously (still kind of haven't since I'm in school and I don't know of anyone teaching Kite guitar professionally) but I do play it and practice sometimes. | In summer 2023, I made a 31edo kalimba.

I've been working on a couple of MIDI keyboard designs: the TS41 (which I have a fully working prototype of and uses 1 tactile switch per key) and a design with force-sensitive keys. | |||
I'm also interested in making microtonal software and other microtonal hardware (I'm majoring in computer science at school so hopefully I'll get good at writing code and building programs sometime in the not-too-distant future). | I'm also interested in making microtonal software and other microtonal hardware (I'm majoring in computer science at school so hopefully I'll get good at writing code and building programs sometime in the not-too-distant future). | ||
