Been playing with my birdnet detection data. Made a realtime synth based on species detections and working on wireless framed art piece that displays the latest detection on an eink display.


> framed art piece

love this idea! my retired mother spends a lot of time at her living room window with the Merlin Bird ID app and optimizing her bird feeders. it'd be fun to build something like this for her.


You need to post more detail on this!


Here ya go! https://birdymusic.com/

BirdNET-PI posts detection notifications via Apprise interface to a little Rails app running on a tiny vps. Sound generation is done through the wonderful Tone.js library which wraps the WebAudioContext API.

I'd like to continue building more generative sound structures like adsr graphs from sparklines of detections and things like that. Trying to keep it generative, but without AI blackboxing things.
