Caca Marba and Cirit Birit

Minggu lps meeting ngan SV. Antara intipati nya adalah mengembalikan fokus kpd contribution terpenting. Yup2. Nasib baik we had the same idea. Sbb hari tu mmg experiments tu tailored more ke arah nak kasi siap for paper submission, skang paper dah habis submit kena patah balik and and siapkan coding secepat mungkin. Lps dah siap implemen algorithm yg kitaorg dah setuju tu, baru la bole see if nak extend to fuzzy set plak. Ini bahagian computing.

Td plak meeting dgn co-SV. Alhamdulillah, walau pon dah lamaaaaa sgt x jumpa dia, bila bg report progress kat mana he was happy. Cuma co-SV yg ni mmg from artistic background, so his focus was more on the development of my interface and he'll email a few good papers on HCI for music. Also his concern was on evaluating the aesthetic values of my concatenation. Yes, it may give more accurate results and better efficiency, BUT is it better SOUNDING? Ha... payah nak jawab tu sbb so far aku measure improvement pakai similarity distance aje. Kalo nak measure how good it sounds tu, mungkin kena tggu lps siap bhgian fuzzy, then selit sket la how to measure, maybe guna semantic ke. Human participant ni kalo bole malas nak buat, but we'll see how lah, kalo perlu utk support and kalo ada masa, then yes. If not, diam2 aje... So yg ni bahagian Music nya.

Haih kdg2 naik pening nak kena sendiri mau ingat kena balance dua2 areas ni. Tu la, siapa suruh buat research yg Interdisciplinary lg hehehe... Xpe, ingat, best of both worlds.... Tp SV dah pesan awal2 dlm email. Ayatnya:

"...Ok, this is good. But please don't get sidetrack with these papers (HCI) until you have implemented the working prototype as we agreed, ok?...."

Baik boss. Conclusionnya, focus kat Comp Sc nya bahagian dulu hehe... Mmg patut pon. Last time aku ikut nasihat co-SV kena follow up on the arts side tu, terpesong jauh jd nya kerja aku drpd matlamat asal. Aku ni kalo ikut nasihat terlalu bendul sgt kot, mcm crisp logic. Cuba2 la bwk biar jadi fuzzy logic sket, bkn Yes No, 0 or 1 semata2 hehehe... *geek mode*

Ni baru balik gamelan. Hari ni revised lagu2 yg lama dah tinggal (sblm Xmas hari tu). Masa tu aku main alat nama pemade ni. Okay la, mencabar sket, and I think I have pretty much improved, and sudah x segan2 lg kalo kena sound pon. Maybe sbb dah developed sket bond dgn group kot, mula2 dulu kalo kena tegur je mula la panic2. Skang sengih2 je kalo terketuk awal or tersalah note hah! Lebih mantap lg, cikgu nya siap bg satu org satu CD gamelan (copy) utk dipsg sblm tido ke, masa bwk keta ke, suh hafal. Tu dia.... extreme tu. Kalo merdu and mellow mcm gamelan terengganu or gamelan jawa bole la kot buat psg nak tido, ni lagu laju ala2 menakutkan barongan tu, hish, buat mengingau dlm tido aje ada. Psg sambil buat coding pon terus jam kepala hotak. Tgk la, sambil2 mkn lunch kat lab bole kot :P

Minggu dpn x de gamelan sbb reading week utk budak2 undergrads (majoriti peserta gamelan undergrads). Aku ingtkn reading week ni mcm study week la kat Msia, lps tu exam week. Rupanya x. Just a week off utk catch up kalo ada nota2 or assignment yg tertinggal. Cheh... kalo buat kat Msia maaf lah student nak study masa tu. Ptg khamis tu lg kelas dah kosong agaknya budak2 cabut balik kg or meronggeng ngan mak/pak we... hmmmm... Aku mula2 konfius la ngan konsep ni, pastu ada sorg budak ni terangkan, ooo baru la aku faham. Dia ibaratkan spt spring break. Are you kidding me? Spring dah ke? Tp mungkin jgk betul. Tgk la, pokok tulis ni dah bertunas!


Ok nak balik. Aisyah ni cirit birit and muntah2 drpd hari Ahad lg tau. Esok dah Khamis. Asal minum susu je muntah, kdg sampai pucat2 badan. Pastu terasa jgk la mcm dah ringan sket badan dia, ke psycho aku x tahu la. Tp seperti biasa, Doktor kat telefon ckp, let the virus runs its course, give it 5-7 days. Ubat x payah, bg air garam je kalo budak tu lesu. Hawau betul. Budak tu dlm masa dua jam ada berak 6 kali dah, everyday pon mcm tu. Taik cair2 sampai masa tukar pampaers pon siap terjejeh2 kat carpet rumah dah tau, punya runny and full. Bau jgn cerita la, baik punya whiffy. Kata Dr lg, kalo lg 2 hari x baik, baru la call semula. Aku angin betul ngan klinik kat sini. Macam si*l je nasihat. Ikut hati bg Aisyah teguk kopi pekat baru tahu, sembelit plak karang. Hiiii....... Ada tips utk pulihkan cirit budak2? Tolong la sama2 doakan Aisyah cpt sembuh ye. Hari ni dah burn gi nursery, esok pon mungkin sama lg. Minggu dpn pon mungkin burn sehari jgk sbb ada arrangement antara aku ngan Hubs. Bulan Februari ni dah la pendek, asyik ponteng aje, nampak gaya nya free2 sedekah amal x jariah kat nursery dia.
