Employment
Experience
- Music Generation
A server-side Go application that generates randomly music implementing an FM synthesizer. This is a suite of tools to help developers and musicians to explore the possibilities that this concept can give. The suite includes an FM synthesizer with unlimited oscillators and composable algorithms, visualization tools such as a spectrum viewer, waveform plot and phase shift viewer, an FIR filter to enable some equalization.
- Anivoi
A web app that lets you create short cartoon animations initiated by a voice message.
The front-end records the voice message and gets the audio level peaks with a JavaScript library called P5. Then the audio file with the peaks array is sent to a PHP script that uses ImageMagick and FFmpeg to generate the short cartoon. There is also the option to alter your voice and create custom cartoons. - ELO Ratings
This is a social network based on image sharing like Instagram where instead of likes the users can vote your images against others. The rank of the images is calculated after every vote with the ELO algorithm.
- Complete Compliance
This is a web-based management application that lets you store in one place all the documents and certificates regarding your sites. It also sends you reminders about the compliance status of your site and upcoming expiring certificates and it can arrange appointments with technicians that can make your site compliant.
