I finally got a chance to check out the Demo of SimTunes graciously posted by thewhiteline on this post. To run it, I set the program to run under 256 colors in Windows 95 Compatibility mode (just right click the program icon, go to properties, then Compatibility to set this). I must say I was pleasantly surprised. It's a lot of fun. The way it works is you draw pixels on the screen while four little "bugs" walk around; when they walk over a pixel a sound plays. Different colors play different sounds. There is also music running in the background that your pixels play on top off. It's pretty fun. There are some included images that play composed pieces of music. As you can imagine if you line things up correctly you can get some cool sequences going, or you can just go random and see what comes out like my masterpiece above. I'll be keeping an eye out for the full version myself. Title link takes you to the demo. Thanks again to thewhiteline for this little gem. It would be cool to see this pojected on screen, in some performance art (oh, a composition running that is, not my masterpiece above). : )
