Experiments in sound, silicon chips and voice
For quite some time I have been interested in the idea of running a fully self‑contained guitar and audio processing system on embedded hardware. Modern single‑board computers have become extremely capable, but turning them into reliable real‑time audio systems is still surprisingly complex. That exploration eventually turned into a project that I am now releasing … Read more
experiments in sound, silicon chips and voice Welcome to 1m2lab, a personal tinkering lab exploring the intersection of: This site documents ongoing experiments, engineering curiosities, and technical explorations. Some projects grow into full systems. Others remain experiments. Both are valuable. Areas of exploration Current highlights This site is both a project log and a technical … Read more
experiments in sound, silicon chips and voice — 1m2lab Statement: Users should have the right to control their own devices The problem with smart home devices is not the technology. The problem is control. An increasing number of consumer devices are designed to function only through the manufacturer’s cloud service. This is not a technical … Read more
1m2lab is a personal tinkering lab focused on technology, sound, and experimentation. The lab exists because of curiosity — the desire to understand how systems work and how they can be pushed beyond their intended design. The projects documented here often combine: I am particularly interested in exploring what modern single‑board computers can do in … Read more
I’m also an advocate of decentralized social media and open network ecosystems. Under the 1m2lab lab infrastructure I operate and experiment with several Fediverse platforms, including: In addition to running services, I also contribute to the ecosystem by: I am also an active member of Fediversuomi ry, a Finnish organization supporting the development and adoption … Read more
PiPedal-Distro PiPedal-Distro is an experimental Linux appliance distribution for guitar processing systems based on the PiPedal ecosystem. The idea is to create a ready-to-flash embedded audio system that runs efficiently on SBC platforms and provides a powerful LV2 plugin environment for guitar processing. The project explores: Widowmaker Pedal Widowmaker is a custom embedded guitar processing … Read more
Experiments in sound, silicon chips and voice Technology becomes most interesting when curiosity meets experimentation. 1m2lab exists because of that curiosity. This site is a personal laboratory where I explore the intersection of: Many of the projects documented here begin as simple questions: This lab is where I explore those questions. Curiosity as a way … Read more
