Intermission: Dessert. Figs, Cassis, and Ice Cream. from Livid Instruments on Vimeo.

"We have a fig tree in our backyard, and the fruit is getting REALLY good. We also have a bottle of Clear Creek Cassis (blackcurrant liqueur) in our cabinet that we picked up on a recent visit to their distillery (clearcreekdistillery.com/). Combined with ice cream, we get a delightful dessert!
PS - a nice option is to drizzle a small amount of balsamic vinegar on the figs before you add the ice cream - makes it taste a bit richer!"

Annoy Your Neighbors or Drive Your Dog Nuts* with a Serge Modular Synthesizer

YouTube via 123synthland. 123synthland on Ebay
"We just prepared this 4 panel Serge modular synthesizer for a customer and figured it would be a good idea to take a video to show that it works, so we quickly threw together this horrible patch using many of the modules in this system. The end result is a whole bunch of noise, but some people like noise. if you're one of those people, well, this one's for you! Note: Serge synths can make non-annoying sounds too. *results may vary.
