Getting ready to put the prototype together. You can see here the DAC master volume trimmer, and the CEM 3320 VCF chip with filter trimmer.
The gayest* sounding drum machine of all time.
Who knows what evil lurks in the heart of my closet!
*And by "gay" I mean, actually, literally homosexual, as in this machine perfectly recreates the tinny mechanised-sounding handclaps I heard in the disco and house music that was played in the gay bars of my distant lesbian youth.

A super rare drum machine called Lunavox. AFAIK it was made by Leif Aasen in Sandefjord, Norway. It is quite punchy and it has a preset rhythm called TEEN - so it is full of win.

A short electronic composition, made for Day 2 of the Thing A Day extravaganza. The piece is called "Hiking Up Flamethrower Mountain," and this is the initial drum programming for it. Maybe I'll be able to add to it during the month.
I used Beatcraft, a cool (and cheap) drum machine program, to program the patterns here, and recorded its audio output live in Cool Edit Pro while adding and subtracting layers from the beat. I then saved the initial mix as an mp3, which can be found at:

The sound quality is so-so, but fitting for a preliminary sketch. Here's a shot of my laptop monitor while working on the project.

Directed by Alex DeBronhe
The problem of gender misunderstanding in the frame of techno ad libbing Alex hand beats live. The guy plays the drummachine, but the girl sitting beside him, can't hear him. He tries to explain his world of sounds to her but she is not able to overcome the sound barrier. She can't hear the sounds he hears and as she tries to understand him even harder, it only makes her feel sick. Vibrations coming from the unhearable overtones destroy the girl's body. The film ends with the open final making the audience reflect upon the topic. The titles represent the artistic idea of the film. The original music is created in the interdependence with the editing tempo, movements and gestures of the actors; it illustrates the emotions and thoughts of the characters.
Очень странный фильм. Загадка. Проблема тотального непонимания противоположных полов, помещённая в каркас техно экспромта, сыгранного действительно в живую Алексом (игра ритмов пальцами на синтезаторах называется хэнд-битингом Hand Beating [H/B]). Парень играет на драм-машине. Но девушка, сидящая рядом с ним, не слышит его. Он пытается донести до нее мир своих звуков, но она не в состоянии преодолеть звуковой барьер. Она не слышит звуки которые слышит он, усиленная попытка проникновении в мир мужских звуков лишь приводит к ухудшению самочувствия девушки. Не слышимые обертона порождающие вибрации, разрушают клетки тела девушки. Финал остаётся открытым, давая нам материал для размышлений. Титры являются художественным элементом фильма, как и в других картинах. Оригинальная музыка полностью подчинена монтажному темпо ритму, пластике и жестам актёров, иллюстрирует эмоции и мысли героев.
