Battle Angel Alita

via Zamise:
"Its from Battle Angel Alita, Angel of Redemption Vol. 5 Season of Revenge, Battle 23: Lost Sheep. Story and Art by Yukito Kishiro.

Rumor is that it might be made into a big movie next year by James Cameron with that 3D CGI glassesless phillips technology. Supposedly he bought the rights to the story and has been working on it along with some Avtar movie which I know little to nothing about, but its been in the works for a while already. I've only ever really liked or have followed Battle Angel manga & anime. If it goes over well with Cameron's version, I'm thinking this part of the story that this drawing is from would hopefully make it into the begging of the second movie of maybe 3 movies about her."

Looks legit to me: 2009 on imdb
Volume 5: Angel Of Redemption on Amazon

ixiQuarks

"ixiQuarks is a software environment designed for live improvisation that allows for user interaction on hardware, GUI and code level. The environment enables innumerable setups with flexible loading of tools and instruments. The ixiQuarks consist of different types of tools: basic utilities, instruments, effects, filters, spectral effects and generators.

ixiQuarks exist in 3 different forms: ixiQuarks, ixiQuarks Pro and ixiQuarks as Quarks library for SuperCollider. (ixiQuarks are written in the SuperCollider programming language). For non-programmers, we recommend ixiQuarks, for people that like experimenting with programming and write their own instruments as part of ixiQuarks, we recommend ixiQuarks Pro. For SuperCollider users, we simply recommend installing the ixiQuarks from the repository.

Tools:
basic utilities: AudioIn, Recorder, Player, BufferPool, PoolManager, FreqScope, WaveScope, EQMeter, MixerNode, Amplifier, ChannelSplitter, TrigRecorder.

instruments: SoundScratcher, StratoSampler, Raindrops, Mushrooms, Predators, Gridder, BufferPlayer, GrainBox, PolyMachine, Quanoon, ScaleSynth

audio effects: Delay, Freeverb, AdCVerb, Distortion, ixiReverb, Chorus, Octave, Tremolo, Equalizer, CombVocoder, RandomPanner, MRRoque, MultiDelay, Cyberpunk, Moog

filters: Bandpass, Lowpass, Highpass, Resonant Lowpass, Resonant Highpass, Resonant, Klanks
spectral: SpectralEQ, MagClip, MagSmear, MagShift, MagFreeze, RectComb, BinScramble, BinShift

generators: Noise, Oscillators."

Mondo Modular Episode 2

"Yet another bold journey into an audio world where many have tread before and even fewer haven't... (wait a minute -- this doesn't make any sense?!?)

Anyway, just me again getting some cool sounds out of my truly amazing modular sound generating system.

Please bear with me and in an episode or two I'll post some video of electronic music giants like Herb Deutsch, Gershon Kingsley and Bernie Kraus that I've shot over the years.

See the rewards that lie ahead for making it throught these punishing viewings? Who sez I'm not a pussycat sweetheart?"

"The keyboard is somewhat too spongy in my opinion, but the after touch sensitivity can be controlled by a lever, which is rather nice. There is also a Chase Play function, which can be used to create some very intriguing delay effects. 'All in all, the D-50 is a very warm-sounding synth - Finding it particularly usable for lush and thick synthetic backwashes and complex woodwind sounds.'"

ARP Little Brother

"The Little Brother is an expansion module for any ARP-System monophonic or polyphonic synthesizer. It has its own built-in VCO oscillator and LFO. Use it to double up your monophonic Axxe or really fatten up the sound of an Odyssey, 2500 or 2600! The LFO can add really new and cool modulation effects to these synths too! Best of all several Little Brothers can be stacked to greatly expand or enhance the functionality of your ARP synths in a modular-like fashion! Though the Little Brother uses ARP's System Interface for interfacing with these other synths, it has CV, gate and trigger inputs and an LFO out as well." Note the waveforms: BRASS, HOLLOW, REED, FUZZ
