sls & pco: video games that can play video games

sls & pco: video games that can play video games from paper kettle on Vimeo.

"This quick/rough video walks through a patch that I built and demonstrates an example of a video game feedback loop.

In this patch, the Soviet Life Sequencer (SLS) sends sequencer information to drive 2 things: 1) a blippy synthesizer, and 2) another game: the Paddle Controlled Oscillator (PCO). Simultaneously, PCO paddle/ball collisions & misses determine the motion of falling blocks in SLS.

Thus, this patch creates a self-sustained feedback loop where two video games are playing each other.

These games will be freely available from paperkettle.com by the end of June 2011. To get an alert when they're released, subscribe to:

(yo dawg, I heard you like video games, so I made video games that play video games so your video games can play video games while you play video games)"

"something new happens on this machine every time I patch it up.
the gist(language)-
4 outs/pitches from 2 different 4040 dividers running at clock audio rates feed into 4 filters which are CVd by 4 triangle LFO's- filters are also being fed random oscillator voices. Filter outputs go to a 4066 switch, controlled by 4 different Q outs from a 4094 shift register."
