Opening!

Finally, I have a blog.

Welcome to Truewis Workshop!

It took me a while to make this huge decision. First of all, I was not quite a diligent person. For me, it was obvious that I would soon abandon my blog for whatever reason. Doing something in a daily basis did not fit me at all, whatever it was. Also, I was not really familiar with writing in English. If readers comment every time I make a grammar mistake, my mailbox will be soon full of them, and while I appreciate them for pointing out my mistakes, that was not exactly what I expected my blog to do.

And the final reason for the hesitation was, will any hitchhikers on the internet care another huge pile of weird ideas, paranormal projects, and narcissistic daydreams? Well, I will find it out soon.

 I will post on mainly two subjects, that is, computer games and music. Well, to be honest, I will mostly post on THE game, which I am developing from June this year, and THE music composed and mixed my me. I would soon start to make posts on the progress. In fact, for music, there are already some of them out there at Soundcloud, so please check it if you are interested!

 I am also interested in general knowledge and theories behind games and musics, but there are a lot of good resources out there and my blog would not be able to compete with them. That does not mean I will not post any of them, nor they will not be discussed.

I somehow made a stupid decision to major on physics quite ago(not exactly a decision, since I am currently not even a college freshman yet, but anyway). And among these huge plans on music and games, I would also like to discuss about general(that is, primitive) physics and mathematics here! Well, if the subject is on quantum information theory or statistical physics, you could have more 'civilized' discussions, but hey! What do you expect to an undergrad? :P By the way, sharing interesting papers from PRL, arXiv, etc. are always welcomed!

Transition

I came back home to spend the summer before my graduate program. There isn't much to do besides hanging out with old friends. My music production setup sits in a storage in Chicago. Research and game development also has been delayed since March; as my desktop is also in the storage, and I don't have a good working laptop right now. Well, I can still learn languages and write blog posts, I guess. Why do I write blog posts? To share new research ideas? Yes, but I find that cause overly practical. Besides, can we justify sharing all those wild imaginations and conjectures on the internet, which already suffers from a myriad of fake news? To share my life? Sure, but why would other people find my life interesting? And even if they are interested, that is not a good sign. Good people are interested in their own lives rather than the others. The reason I think is to not repeat the mistakes of the past. I don't think history repeats itself as is, but you can still often learn fro...

New Album!

As I plan to move out from Chicago this summer, I am having a hard time putting efforts into my ongoing research projects. That is why I thought it is a good time to instead work on publishing the composition work I've done here. So yes, this is my first attempt at drawing an album cover, editing video clips, and so on. Plus my listening room is pretty dysfunctional as I am getting rid of my absorber blocks. I have to move out, after all. Despite all this, I hope the experience isn't too bad! I am releasing tracks one by one, hopefully a track every other week. Let's see how this turns out!

20250322 Athens

  After landing at Eleftherios Venizelos Airport, I hurried to retrieve my checked-in luggage. It was my last quarter at college, so I had moved out of my apartment, shipped most of my belongings through a moving company, and brought what was left with me in a small suitcase. I had done some research beforehand, so I knew I would be taking the X95 bus to get to CYA in Πανκγράτι(Pangrati). Of course, I was advised to take a taxi, but not everyone has an extra €50 to spare. The journey started with a bit of confusion, as the airport felt vast, and I was not entirely sure where to catch the bus. I went to the information desk, where the officer directed me to the bus terminal just outside the arrivals area. Once I reached the X95 stop, I saw a long line of travelers, many of whom spoke Greek (Ελληνικά). I quickly realized the X95 was a popular choice. After tapping my card (κάρτα) and paying only €6, which was a bargain compared to the taxi, I hopped on. The bus was not exactly comfor...
