Solar Concert

YouTube Uploaded by organfairy on Oct 24, 2011

"To test the solar panel I have been building I play some music on three CASIO keyboards that I have connected to the system. No other power source is used.

I play through the speakers in the keyboards because if I connected them directly to the PC that is recording the performance they would use very little current. So that would be like cheating! I use two microphones to pick up the sound.

The three songs I play are:
"Glemmer du" (Kaj Normann Andersen)
"De Towerfluitsmurf" (Pierre Kartner)
"Oxygen XIII" (Jean Michel Jarre)"

"I Dream Of Wires" & MATRIXSYNTH - Modular Pic of the Week Contest

"'I Dream Of Wires: The Modular Synthesizer Documentary' is an upcoming film documenting the history and revival of modular synthesizers. You can read about the project, and view the in-progress trailer, over at the film's IndieGoGo fund raising page, here. From the IDOW Facebook page: 'If you haven't had time to check out our campaign - please do! It's essentially a DVD / soundtrack / T-Shirt / etc pre-order, and your early contributions really help us to move forward and solidify our plans.'

For the next 30 weeks, IDOW and MATRIXSYNTH will be co-presenting a modular synthesizer photo of the week contest. The photos will be judged by Robert Fantinatto (IDOW director), Jason Amm (IDOW producer, Ghostly International recording artist Solvent), and MATRIXSYNTH. Every Sunday night, from Oct 30 to May 20, the latest photo of the week winner will be posted here on MATRIXSYNTH. At the end of the 30 weeks, the Top5 photos will be selected.

What do the 'photo of the week' winners get?:
- Complimentary 'I Dream of Wires' DVD (upon film's release).
- Not only will your photo be posted to MATRIXSYNTH, you will also get an accompanying 50 words + 1 website link, to describe & promote your musical/photographic work.
- The photo + accompanying text/URL will also be included on the 'I Dream Of Wires' DVD release, as part of a bonus-feature photo gallery.
- Top5 winners: One of these photos will be selected as an official IDOW T-shirt design, and all 5 will be printed as a postcard set. T-Shirts and postcard sets are available as part of IDOW's IndieGoGo fund raising packages. Top5 winners will also receive a complimentary T-Shirt + postcard set.

Rules and considerations:
- Maximum 3 submissions per person. 1 photo submission per email. Please note that all submissions will remain in the pool of photos, for consideration throughout the contest.
- All digital files must be 5 megabytes or smaller, must be in JPEG or JPG format, and must be at least 1,600 pixels wide (if a horizontal image) or 1,600 pixels tall (if a vertical image).
- Modular synthesizer hardware only. Semi-modular synth hardware is also acceptable as long as there is evidence of some cross-patching.
- Photos will be judged on artistic/aesthetic merit - not on how large/rare the modular is or who it belong(s)/(ed) to.

People are invited to submit photos, via email to modular@idreamofwires.org. You must include the following information in the body of your email submission:
(1) Your name / photo credit.
(2) Please copy and paste the following text: 'I confirm that I am the photographer or the holder of the copyrights of this property. I am allowing 'I Dream of Wires: The Modular Synthesizer Documentary' and MATRIXSYNTH use of this property.'
(3) Title of the photo (optional).

Insane Transients

YouTube Uploaded by djangosfire on Oct 23, 2011

"Yep...... WARNING: self indulgent noise :) Really just experimenting w/ a Buchla 230e Triple Envelope Tracker module. Using the transients created to control and mangle audio from the guitar + 2x mics + 2x 258v VCO's + Re-301 Tape Echo w/ sound-on-sound. The audio was hot into the 301- slamming the tape - but alot of what sounds like a buried needle was the pair of 258v's using 3x different EG sources + heavy cross Mod FM. Then randomly tuned stages from the 250e are stepped via any spike from the 230e. Crazy noise experiment = 'Insane Transients'"
