 Anyway I got hooked on exploring pattern with pure functional programming, and Tidal became pretty central to my [PhD thesis](http://slab.org/thesis/).. I was lucky enough to be in the position of spending those 3-4 years (2007-2011) reading around, thinking about and writing about what I thought I was doing with it. As well as the afore-mentioned BP2, A short essay by [Laurie Spiegel about pattern language](http://retiary.org/ls/writings/musical_manip.html) was a huge influence.. and I also dreamed of a [visuo-spatial interface](https://slab.org/colourful-texture/) for it which I still haven't found the time to properly follow up on.
 
-From the start I'd always shared the code for Tidal under a free/open source license, but it wasn't until 2013 I was invited to do a month's residency at Hangar Barcelona supported by L'ull cec that I really had time and pressure to start documenting Tidal.

 From there it wasn't long until [Mike Hodnick](http://kindohm.com/) discovered **Tidal**, and started his intensive '365 tidal patterns' project. The first person to do something often gets the credit, but I like the idea that it's the [second person to get into something who's really making the leap](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fW8amMCVAJQ). So thanks to Mike and all the amazing people who've followed in making Tidal their own.
