FLO software is the future of democracy
Together, we can liberate technology
Timmy is passionate about the philosophy of FLO (Free/Libre/Open) software. He is happy to be using GNU/Linux for his musical compositions and performances. He loves to tell others about his great experiences with FLO software. Timmy's music is inspired by FLO technologies including GNU/Linux, Matthew Autry's skip-fretting, and Kite guitar. These technologies have connected him with notes outside of modern standard tuning. Rather than being limited to just one tuning, Timmy's music is inspired by both the harmonic series and various edos beyond just 12edo (standard tuning). He finds a unique sound from the intersection between ancient tuning theory, modern music technology, and a FLO philosophy.
