Update via theformicarium: "I've just had great fun taking some shots of our newly repaired Multimoog (which used to belong to the music department at my old school, I went back a few years ago to take part in a performance for my brother and found that they were planning to chuck it in a skip and so I rescued it!) I have just saved up enough to have Tony Allgood at Oakley Sound get it restored to nearly good as new and it arrived back on Sunday. The sound is amazing, the sweepable waveshape oscillators sound incredible when theyre halfway between shapes and the sample & hold is to die for. I've taken some careful closeups and put them on the Formication Flickr page along with some shots of our Analog Solutions modded tr-606 and a few more shots of the ubiquitous notron"
Show me your panels for CGS modules!

Nodal
"Nodal is a generative software application for composing music. It uses a novel method for the notation and playing of MIDI based music. This method is based around the concept of a user-defined graph. The graph consists of nodes (musical events) and edges (connections between events). You interactively define the graph, which is then traversed by any number of players who play the musical events as they encounter them on the graph. The time taken to travel from one node to another is based on the length of the edges that connect the nodes.Nodal is free software available for Mac OS X based computers.
Working with Nodal
Nodal does not make any sound by itself – it only generates MIDI data. You will need a MIDI synthesiser to hear the output that Nodal is making. Nodal is compatible with any MIDI synthesiser. For simple demonstrations we recommend SimpleSynth.
Nodal will also work with Apple's GarageBand software."

littleBits
littleBits intro from ayah bdeir on Vimeo.
"littleBits is an opensource library of discrete electronic components pre-assembled in tiny circuit boards. Just as Legos allow you to create complex structures with very little engineering knowledge, littleBits are simple, intuitive, space-sensitive blocks that make prototyping with sophisticated electronics a matter of snapping small magnets together. With a growing number of available modules, littleBits aims to move electronics from late stages of the design process to its earliest ones, and from the hands of experts, to those of artists, makers and designers."
