"Vintage 1974 Minimoog Model D. I am the second owner. I bought this in 1978. The serial number is 4346. The wooden cabinet has been rebuilt and refinished. Some of the wood was replaced due to wear and tear. The badge on the rear panel was never put back on afterwards but I still have it and will include it. Everything else is original except the power cord.

This comes with a heavy duty Anvil road case where it has lived for most of the last 20 years. The case was re-foamed a few years ago and is in great condition.

There are a couple blemishes in the wood and I took photos of them up close. The keyboard controller panel where the Mod and Pitch wheels are has the protective clear plastic coating fraying at the bottom. See photo.

The boards were removed and all the pots, switches, and connections, were cleaned about 4 years ago. All the oscillators and filter were calibrated at that time as well. The keyboard has had all new rubber bumpers installed and all the keys were leveled. The keyboard contacts and bus bar were all cleaned as well. It has been in the case in my closet ever since. This unit has the very desirable old-style oscillator boards in it.

This thing is a monster but I never use it. It's too nice a unit to live in a closet."

"Everything is working fine, also the aftertouch. It has the red glue keyboard installed, but it’s still in good condition. You can see that the previous owner took care of this synth.

We bought it from the French composer Frederic Mercier (a true legend).

Cosmetically it’s in very good condition too with only some minor signs of use. There are some small scratches and little wear and tear on the case. And there’s an Apple sticker next to the volume slider.

It’s a 230v version. An European power lead is included and the serial number is: AC91744"

"These are from a musical instrument trade shows from a few years back. Moog had these located in their trade show booth.

These empty bottles have never been used. I saved them and recently found them. I opened them to dump the water out into my plants (who wants to drink years old water??). But these were never used to drink from.

Cool promotional items for fans of Moog Synthesizer -- you don't see very often."

Paper Video Games of my childhood


video by Alexander Zolotov

Music made with Sunvox. Details below.

"In 1994 i didn't have a game console. But some classmates already owned popular NES clones, and i was very impressed with the aesthetics of 8-bit games of the time. All those pixels, colorful sprites, chip music!
I didn't really want to play them, but i definitely wanted to be somehow involved, maybe create my own games.
So i started cutting out small pieces of cardboard and painting game levels on them. It was like a paper ROM cartridge. The game console is also a cardboard box with a transparent window and a dot or triangle (the main character) in the center.
Some of these games were even playable :)
Most, of course, were more concepts than finished games.
The process of creating such games from scratch - that was the most important and interesting in this case!
A competing company was represented by my friend Kirill :) Together we created a huge amount of cartridges, then exchanged it, discussed it, came up with something new. For a couple of years, we have improved the technology and started creating games in the form of an interactive film on a sheet of paper.
In 1995 i got a PC (486SX) at home. But even after that, up to a certain point, we spent more time with paper games than with real computers :)
