       @mntmn @pndc this was also a blocker for me when i was recently laptop shopping. I need the power of something like the current ryzen processors for the work that i do.

       An updated #introduction after giving it some more thought ...I'm Matt, an artist and musician based in Toronto/Tkaronto. I work in and around computation, thinking about its histories, politics, culture, and computation-as-material. My main efforts right now are around computational poetics, expanded sculpture, and net art. I believe computers could be something different in the world, and try to embody that in my work and life.I make music mainly as New Tendencies, but sometimes under other names and used to play in a number of punk/post-punk bands in addition to my more experimental/electronic/computer music and sound art. I also have a very very small label/press called <blink>.I live with my partner of over 20 years and a 10 year old Bengal cat named Iggy (because she's a real wild child). My online life goes back to around 1992 when I started calling BBS's, and running one... then soon after getting an internet connection and basically living on IRC where I got into the demo/tracker scene and started making computer music.Also love sci-fi, video games, Hackers (1995), bad reality tv, cocktails...Here are some links. https://emenel.cahttps://newtendencies.bandcamp.comhttps://blinktag.bandcamp.comhttps://emenel.bandcamp.com#computermusic #contemporaryart #soundart #music #poetry

       @mntmn @pndc i ended up going with a ryzen 9 8945 based system. It is totally enough. I do a lot of very large image processing using code (i’m an artist who works with common lisp, ffmpeg, imagemagick, raylib, etc). For example, my current project involves animating and compositing 33k large jpgs.
