Microphone Recycling

YouTube via organfairy | August 31, 2010

"It has been a while since my last DIY project. But now I will re-build a couple of broken dynamic microphones into electret microphone that can be used with a computer.

The music is something I made back in 2000 and it is a Patrick Hernandez medley - Disco Queen and Born to be alive - that I play on the Yamaha HE-8 organ with Roland SH-2000 synthesizer and CR-1000 drum machine. I also sporadically used the Yamaha VSS-30."

"This is my recent art work.

"BUTSUDAN" - the Japanese's heart

"BUTSUDAN(the Buddhist altar)" has been a major Japanese furnishing goods not only as an altar to enshrine Buddha, but also as superior traditional handicrafts. However today, as the living environment around Japnanese families change, there are only a few families have "BUTSUDAN" in their homes.

"we want "BUTSUDAN" back to Japanese home,"

We have worked out to create a compact "BUTSUDAN" that may fit in the modern Japanese families and homes.

Now, we have brought to complete "BUTSUDAN" application for iPad.

As you know iPad is very thin device, so that it's easy to place "BUTSUDAN" in your home, and you may also use this device as an iPad when you don't use "BUTSUDAN".

** enshrine picture and name plate

"BUTSUDAN" applocation has some important functions that makes what this is as "BUTSUDAN"

Selecting a picture from picture library and inputting name on the
name plate, then you can enshrine pictures and name plate in "BUTSUDAN".

This application also has other ordinary "BUTSUDAN" functions such as lighting candles and sticks of incense, offering flowers and rice-cakes,
sounding a temple block and a bell.

** Drum Mode

This application also has innovative "drum mode" on board for young users who are not familiar with ordinary "BUTSUDAN".

You can play this as electric drum by tapping those "BUTSUDAN" fittings displayed. Enjoy drum mode at your several music scene like Drum 'n' Bass, BreakBeats, Hip-Hop etc.."

"I saw this Robot Punk standing in the Metal Sculpture Garden in the Pomona Arts Colony, decided to film him for a bit. ( I don't know who built him, but could easily find out if you are interested. ) The music is an Industrial style tune I made in about 10 minutes to test NanoStudio for iPad - the sound quality is quite nice."
