1-bit symphony

simply genius! Love it..

Tristan Perich's 1-Bit Symphony is an electronic composition in five movements on a single microchip. Though housed in a CD jewel case, 1-Bit Symphony is not a recording in the traditional sense; it literally "performs" its music live when turned on. A complete electronic circuit—programmed by the artist and assembled by hand—plays the music through a headphone jack mounted into the case itself. 1-Bit Symphony is available from Cantaloupe Music.

Big Ideas (don't get any) by James Houston

Based on the lyric (and alternate title) "Big Ideas: Don't get any" I grouped together a collection of old redundant hardware, and placed them in a situation where they're trying their best to do something that they're not exactly designed to do, and not quite getting there.

Sinclair ZX Spectrum - Guitars (rhythm & lead)
Epson LX-81 Dot Matrix Printer - Drums
HP Scanjet 3c - Bass Guitar
Hard Drive array - Act as a collection of bad speakers - Vocals & FX

Sonic Wallpaper

i dunno if anyone is interested but i was playing around with a program that visualizes audio [spectrogram] but this one's in real time. It looks a tad retro, but hey.

Anyway I thought it looked like wallpaper. Real time wallpaper. Which you could do, e.g. the walls updating to the sound of people in the room [or sid pissing about on an analogue synth..] Or I dunno, maybe I'll print it out as physical wallpaper for analogue/digital? or something....nah its all been done before - but Somewhere in it there;s a good idea.... i dunno.. i just thought I'd say something... hello!

re re re long exposures.

Ade, can't see that he would be able to use digital for his work due to the noise. Interesting work tho. I'm supprised no one has developed a chilled sensor so noise (built up sensor heat) is no longer a problem.

re your experiments I have heard of people getting round noise by layering images that are say ten seconds long and taken one after the other for however long. once the images are overlayed with high opacity, the noise becomes blurred but the image remains sharp, if you see what i mean.

Analogue / digital

I've made some videos inspired by what's been shown so far for the Analogue/Digital show. Could also be for internet/Bradford project? Please watch!





P.S. I've done another [that isn't uploaded] with the word 'internet'
