The PICSynth project uses 2 digitally controlled oscillators along with analog waveshaper and a voltage-controlled filter resulting in some very sweet sounds. Dual oscillator mono synth Really easy to build using just 1 custom programmed PIC chip, 4 ICs and single 12v supply All circuits built on veroboard – no printed circuit board making skills […]
Discouraged by high prices and limited availability, Kentaro knew his chance at owning one of the much-sought-after Tenori-On electronic instruments were slim-to-none. Undaunted by those obstacles he created his own version – free of those extraneous LEDs, function buttons, chips, and well … electronics in general. Hey – everybody loves the feel of popping bubble […]
From the MAKE Flickr photo pool Funnypolynomial shares his creative take on the LEDkit solderless clock project, using a clear cube enclosure for a multifaceted display – very cool idea! (Hmmm, wonder how this might work out on a sphere …) – Cube Corner Clock – 7:36 on Flickr LED Clock Kit -Red
From the MAKE Flickr photo pool Greenwithevil brought his flatbed scanner turned-camera to Burning Man and captured some intriguing images – Scanner Camera on Flickr From the pages of MAKE: MAKE:14 p.78 – Scanner Camera
From the MAKE Flickr photo pool Andrew from Boulder, CO created an orientation aware USB camera and imaging software to go with it – First I built a circuit to make it so I could read a 3-axis magnetometer and a 3-axis accelerometer over USB, just for the heck of it. Then later, while trying […]
Most commercial MIDI controllers are unnecessarily large and awkward – certainly not designed to be on ones lap while soldering/bending/wiring/coding. Hopefully Korg’s upcoming line of “nano” devices can fill that void. Peter Kirn of Create Digital Music runs through the slated features – nanoKEY: 25 keys, transmitting either as MIDI notes or (via a separate […]
> Steven his digital photo-art method – “Pixel-lapse” combines the temporal nature of long exposure photography and the precise organization of the digital matrix. By creating an image one pixel at a time, each part of the image shows different captured moments. In the end, each image not only has dimension but also gains duration […]
