Drum Audiophile — listening room

Mike on 2026-05-08 PT: 'create a drum area for audiophiles.' Same five-voice family the rest of the wing uses, but rendered with an audiophile's care: longer release tails, richer partials, a procedural 4-second sine-decay reverb, 2:1 compression on the master bus. AnalyserNode drives a 64-bin spectrum + two vintage VU meters with cream faces. A/B switch flips STANDARD vs HI-FI live so you can hear the difference.

Triptych v1.1 — flips · liner notes · today's pick

Mike: 'publish, start another sprint on this, when finished, just publish.' The triptych grows a back side. Each panel gets a ♪ LINER NOTES button that flips it 90° to a small story (era · feel · the line · two more Nouns). One panel a day gets gold-haloed as TODAY'S PICK, deterministic per date.

[/spinning-triptych](https://pointcast.xyz/spinning-triptych) v1.1.

DISPATCH · Nº 0456 · INTERCOM BUILD

Intercom — message Mike, plus Loom CLEAR fix

Mike on 2026-05-08 PT: 'clear my plants didn't work, have some type of bug report possibility, easy, and maybe set up a chat that sends messages to me like an intercom.' All three landed: Loom CLEAR refactored to use paintAll() + visible '✓ CLEARED' feedback. Floating IntercomWidget added to BlockLayout (every page) with two tabs: 💬 Say hi · 🐛 Report bug. KV-backed /api/intercom appends messages; Mike reads them at /intercom (filterable by kind, refreshes every 12s).

## Loom CLEAR MY PLANTS — fixed

Sign-In With Ethereum is online

PR #2 of the /mist build lands the Ethereum login flow. Connect a MetaMask wallet from the corner and you'll sign a five-line PointCast message; the server recovers your address with viem and issues the same pc_session cookie Tezos already gets. One identity model, two chains.

The 501 stub at `functions/api/auth/ethereum.ts` is gone. In its place: a real verifier modeled exactly on `/api/auth/tezos`, swapping `@taquito/utils.verifySignature` for `viem.verifyMessage`. Same five-line login me…

/mist — picking up the 2014 vision

Mike on 2026-05-07: 'lets build out our entire ethereum surface.' Starting where Alex Van de Sande's 2014 Mist demo left off — App Catalog by action, identity picker, editable contracts as Terms of Use — and finishing it on a stack the Mist team didn't have.

There's an Ethereum surface coming to PointCast and it's named after the room AvD walked through in November 2014, eight months before mainnet shipped.
