I spent a while trying to work out when Tidal was born, but eventually realised it didn't have a birthday, it slowly emerged and came into focus over an extended, continuous series of experiments, events and collaborations..
However I did my first talk on live coding something like an uzulang written in Haskell on 17th September 2009, so maybe we could pretend that uzu culture turns 17 on 17th Sept 2026?
