"Short film of my sonic installation, exete castle, uk, march09.
The piece is a sonic sculpture, using a former magistrates holding cell as a vessel for feedback.
Mechanical feedback was acheived with a copper wire web, using piezo pickups, coneless speakers as resonators, and was fed with room sound from directional microphones. The whole pickup sound was then fed into thre room with PA speakers, creating an evolving sound. The sound was modulated by, sound, touch and movement."

Fun with op-amps!

Dewanatron - Melody Gin Part 1

YouTube via bigcitymusic
"Brian from Dewanatron demonstrates the Melody Gin. The Melody Gin is an all analog synthesizer that has two oscillators, four LFO's, an envelope generator and a host of other unique features. The Melody Gin can be externally clocked too. These are absolutely beautiful looking and sounding instruments. All the designs are engineered from the ground up by Leon Dewan.

Dewanatron is a collaboration between cousins Leon and Brian Dewan. Dewanatron pieces have been shown in art galleries in New York and Germany. Now they're in Los Angeles! We'll make a higher fidelity video soon."

Introducing NIIO Analog and the Iotine Core

New via niioanalog.com. Be sure to see the site for more of their offerings. This post focuses on the Iotine Core.

"The IOTINE CORE is a dual in, 3 out analog processor that redefines what can be achieved in an outboard processor. The IC features 3 separate processing layers that each include a filter, vca, and a selection of saturation circuits. The dual channel SAT selection with variable DRIVE offers rich texture and intensity circuits designed to alter sound density through analog distortion and waveshaping techniques. Dynamic movement of frequency and amplitude of the layers is a base design feature of the IC. The movement is derived from envelopes that are triggered from the sound itself, resulting in organic and flexible modulation that conforms to the sound and creates a living animation that pulls out or pushes down elements of the sound. Further processing can be applied by separating the layers on output from the IC, allowing external mixing and effecting options that expand the unit into an incredibly flexible processing system." Be sure to see the video link on the Iotine Core page. Impressive. via mati
