Atari 2600 Full MIDI Interface for Music

YouTube via littlescale
"I love the sounds of the Atari 2600. I made a MIDI interface that gives you full control over the sound output of an Atari 2600. You can watch a quick demo here.

I really want to thank Paul Slocum and all of the fantastic work that he has done for the inspiration.

Shoebox Fractal Synth on synth-diy where you will find more images and info.
"I had once stumbled upon Catweazle's fractal synth. In the circuit benders forum it seemed that the project had come to a halt. But recently I realized that it was going on elsewhere.! Here.
Also, the files can be found in the forum or in http://www.gjcp.net/~catweazle/PICsynth/
There are two schematics and lots of mp3 samples if you want to hear how it sounds."

"This is the ThingaMunny, aka "The Goblinator." It incorperates my two favorite DIY kits; Kid Robot's Munny, and Bleep Labs' Thingamakit. Thanks to Bleep Labs, Kid Robot, and HackADay. PS: Can anyone guess what I used for the jetpack?"

PNW2008: Idiotboy Demos the Future Retro XS

YouTube via matrixsynth

"Idiotboy demos the Future Retro XS at the Pacific Northwest Synth Gathering 2008."

Update: Just a quick note on these videos: They are not meant to be performances and they are not prepped. The gathering is very informal. People get together and just set up their gear followed by walking around, checking gear out and talking shop. After lunch (some good pizza) we typically go around the room one by one and just talk about the gear we brought. It's not scripted and it's not a performance, so don't think of these videos as "taped for YouTube." They are not. They are however meant to give you an idea of what these events are like. I went to the SIDY event in the UK this year and it was very much the same minus the talks.

BTW, if you gave a talk at the event and prefer I not put it up, shoot me an email. My contact info is on the bottom right of the site.
