#673 – Lifelong Learning with Bitluni

Welcome, Matthias Balwierz / Bitluni / Luni!

• Midi pedals


• Old projects


• LED walls


• Dunning kruger


• Sonar scanner 


• Aliens


• Romulus


• Lifelong learning


• Beamforming


• Previously had worked on something similar in the medical field but didn’t realize it was the same tech


• ESP32


• Gowin FPGA


• Video generation / crt control


• R2R 


• cnlohr videos for making PCBs


• ESP32 VGA


• PCB mill 


• Failing


• Tiny Tapeout bringing down costs like PCBs


• Jeri doing “home etching” (making silicon at home)


• Building the meme project  on TT02


• GIF construction set


• Almost like a ROM on board, on each clock it exposes the next byte on paralell output


• Luni hasn’t submitted to each tiny tapeout but is building a new project


• Browser assembler that runs in the handheld gaming: “Luni-Asm”


• cpu + gpu to get vector output


• Bitluni live youtube / Bitluni – twitch happens Weds at 8 pm CEST


• Community helps


• Writing memory controllers


• Bus master because internal SRAM is so expensive


• Expense of flash/ram is in IP


• People running test structures the tiles


• FPGAs, Gowin – 9K standard up to 25k


• Gabriel / Lushay Labs – Tutorials for FPGAs


• HDMI connector


• Some IP blocks from Gowin


• Yosys support


• VS code tools and simulation


• Gowin FPGA designer


• Learning clock domains


• Moving back to art


• Demoscene came from the cracker scene


• Different categories / limits


• 4K category only allows 4K of memory for images and sound (generated)


• White demo competitions
