Back home, and back to basics.

I also want to give a shout-out to matrixsynth for including my Zuccotti Park post with the Magic Piano! Apparently this was the first OWS-related post 🙂

There will still be more things to post from New York, so look for them in the coming days.

CatSynth video: circuit bent doomsday device analog synth

From SuperRoss007 on YouTube, via matrixsynth:

Warning: the sound from this circuit-bent device is quite loud and high-pitched. But the cat seems quite nonchalant about the whole thing, casually cleaning herself/himself during the performance.

Luna is a bit like that as well when I fire up even the more esoteric musical gear.

Originally from this auction, via matrixsynth, where you can see additional pictures.

The description from the auction (below), is worth a quick read.

“Firstly, this is NOT a synthesiser. It’s a machine for travelling through time and space – sideways. Transport yourself to the far flung corners of the universe and beyond. For some of you, it may be a one way ticket…

As is often the case with these rare beasts, a lot of work initially needed doing. Jim at ‘Singing Cat Services’ has been a godsend, performing shamanic rewiring rituals, voodoo based calibration and much cat orientated strangeness…

… So, if you’re looking to recreate the BBC radiophonic workshop, or have just got too old to drop acid, this is the tool for you!

In short, a delicious slice of history.”

CatSynth video: Neon Indian – Step Into the World With Your PAL198X

Neon Indian – Step Into the World With Your PAL198X from Neon Indian on Vimeo.

The cat appears a little over three minutes into the video and “plays” the PAL198X. But I recommend checking out the whole video – it has very complete retro style.
