“Here’s a free Ableton Live Instrument rack made from the sound of a rubber band plucked and recorded with a contact microphone. Special thanks to Theo, my cat, for helping out.

Weekend Cat Blogging: Luna in Sunshine

Luna can usually be found in the morning enjoying the sunshine on one of the dining-area chairs, often underneath the glass surface of the table. It does look warm and relaxing.

If only we could all have mornings like this.

The blog has been even more cat-centric than usual this week, but I notice no one is complaining. Nonetheless, we have some music and art reviews coming up soon.

Weekend Cat Blogging #384 is hosted by Patchouli at pam’s sidewalk shoes.

The Carnival of the Cats will be up this Sunday at iMeowza.

Weekend Cat Blogging: Angry Birds

Luna is spending a few minutes playing with her newest toy, a gift to her from recent visitors to CatSynth HQ:

For those who are not familiar with this particular critter, it is the original Angry Bird from the mobile and web game Angry Birds. It’s a rather silly but fun game, more in the style of arcade games than those really annoying “casual games” that were all the rage in the tech startup world and now thankfully on the decline. We don’t play a lot of computer games these days, though Luna did have fun with her toy.

I think Luna prefers the real angry birds that she sees through the window, especially the big fat city pigeons.

Weekend Cat Blogging #382 is hosted by the late great Meowza at iMeowza.

Meanwhile, Ritzi will be hosting Carnival of the Cats tomorrow at iInfidel.

And the Friday Ark is at the modulator
